Description

 - CVE-2021-4197: Fixed a cgroup issue where lower privileged processes could write to fds of lower privileged ones that could lead to privilege escalation (bsc#1194302).
 - CVE-2021-4202: Fixed race condition in nci_request() that could cause use-after-free (bsc#1194529).
 - CVE-2021-44733: Fixed a use-after-free exists in drivers/tee/tee_shm.c in the TEE subsystem in the Linux kernel that occured because of a race condition in tee_shm_get_from_id during an attempt to free a shared memory object (bnc#1193767).
 - CVE-2021-46283: Fixed missing initialization in nf_tables_newset in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c that could cause a denial of service (bnc#1194518).
 - CVE-2022-0185: Incorrect param length parsing in legacy_parse_param which could have led to a local privilege escalation (bsc#1194517).
 - CVE-2022-0322: Fixed a denial of service in SCTP sctp_addto_chunk (bsc#1194985).


Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.
