Synopsis
The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.
Description
This update for the Linux Kernel 4.4.103-92_53 fixes several issues.
The following security issues were fixed :
- CVE-2017-13166: Prevent elevation of privilege vulnerability in the v4l2 video driver (bsc#1085447).
- CVE-2018-1068: A flaw in the implementation of 32-bit syscall interface for bridging allowed a privileged user to arbitrarily write to a limited range of kernel memory (bsc#1085114).
