The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 kernel was updated to 3.12.61 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-16939: The XFRM dump policy implementation in     net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) via a crafted SO_RCVBUF setsockopt     system call in conjunction with XFRM_MSG_GETPOLICY     Netlink messages (bnc#1069702 1069708).

  - CVE-2017-1000405: The Linux Kernel had a problematic use     of pmd_mkdirty() in the touch_pmd() function inside the     THP implementation. touch_pmd() could be reached by     get_user_pages(). In such case, the pmd would become     dirty. This scenario breaks the new     can_follow_write_pmd()'s logic - pmd could become dirty     without going through a COW cycle. This bug was not as     severe as the original 'Dirty cow' because an ext4 file     (or any other regular file) could not be mapped using     THP. Nevertheless, it did allow us to overwrite     read-only huge pages. For example, the zero huge page     and sealed shmem files could be overwritten (since their     mapping could be populated using THP). Note that after     the first write page-fault to the zero page, it will be     replaced with a new fresh (and zeroed) thp (bnc#1069496     1070307).

  - CVE-2017-16649: The usbnet_generic_cdc_bind function in     drivers/net/usb/cdc_ether.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero     error and system crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted USB device (bnc#1067085).

  - CVE-2014-0038: The compat_sys_recvmmsg function in     net/compat.c in the Linux kernel, when CONFIG_X86_X32 is     enabled, allowed local users to gain privileges via a     recvmmsg system call with a crafted timeout pointer     parameter (bnc#860993).

  - CVE-2017-16650: The qmi_wwan_bind function in     drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero     error and system crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted USB device (bnc#1067086).

  - CVE-2017-16535: The usb_get_bos_descriptor function in     drivers/usb/core/config.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds     read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted USB device (bnc#1066700).

  - CVE-2017-15102: The tower_probe function in     drivers/usb/misc/legousbtower.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users (who are physically proximate for     inserting a crafted USB device) to gain privileges by     leveraging a write-what-where condition that occurs     after a race condition and a NULL pointer dereference     (bnc#1066705).

  - CVE-2017-16531: drivers/usb/core/config.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device,     related to the USB_DT_INTERFACE_ASSOCIATION descriptor     (bnc#1066671).

  - CVE-2017-12193: The     assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in     lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel mishandled node     splitting, which allowed local users to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) via a     crafted application, as demonstrated by the keyring key     type, and key addition and link creation operations     (bnc#1066192).

  - CVE-2017-16529: The snd_usb_create_streams function in     sound/usb/card.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users     to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via a crafted USB device (bnc#1066650).

  - CVE-2017-16525: The usb_serial_console_disconnect     function in drivers/usb/serial/console.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device,     related to disconnection and failed setup (bnc#1066618).

  - CVE-2017-16537: The imon_probe function in     drivers/media/rc/imon.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device     (bnc#1066573).

  - CVE-2017-16536: The cx231xx_usb_probe function in     drivers/media/usb/cx231xx/cx231xx-cards.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device     (bnc#1066606).

  - CVE-2017-16527: sound/usb/mixer.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (snd_usb_mixer_interrupt use-after-free and system     crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a     crafted USB device (bnc#1066625).

  - CVE-2017-16531: drivers/usb/core/config.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device,     related to the USB_DT_INTERFACE_ASSOCIATION descriptor     (bnc#1066671).

  - CVE-2017-16529: The snd_usb_create_streams function in     sound/usb/card.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users     to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via a crafted USB device (bnc#1066650).

  - CVE-2017-16525: The usb_serial_console_disconnect     function in drivers/usb/serial/console.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device,     related to disconnection and failed setup (bnc#1066618).

  - CVE-2017-16537: The imon_probe function in     drivers/media/rc/imon.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device     (bnc#1066573).

  - CVE-2017-16536: The cx231xx_usb_probe function in     drivers/media/usb/cx231xx/cx231xx-cards.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device     (bnc#1066606).

  - CVE-2017-16527: sound/usb/mixer.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (snd_usb_mixer_interrupt use-after-free and system     crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a     crafted USB device (bnc#1066625).

  - CVE-2017-13080: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2)     allowed reinstallation of the Group Temporal Key (GTK)     during the group key handshake, allowing an attacker     within radio range to replay frames from access points     to clients (bnc#1063667).

  - CVE-2017-15274: security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux     kernel did not consider the case of a NULL payload in     conjunction with a nonzero length value, which allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and OOPS) via a crafted add_key or keyctl     system call, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2017-12192 (bnc#1045327).

  - CVE-2017-15265: Race condition in the ALSA subsystem in     the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial     of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via crafted /dev/snd/seq ioctl calls,     related to sound/core/seq/seq_clientmgr.c and     sound/core/seq/seq_ports.c (bnc#1062520).

  - CVE-2017-14489: The iscsi_if_rx function in     drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (panic)     by leveraging incorrect length validation (bnc#1059051).

  - CVE-2017-14340: The XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE macro in     fs/xfs/xfs_linux.h in the Linux kernel did not verify     that a filesystem has a realtime device, which allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and OOPS) via vectors related to setting an     RHINHERIT flag on a directory (bnc#1058524).

  - CVE-2017-14140: The move_pages system call in     mm/migrate.c in the Linux kernel doesn't check the     effective uid of the target process, enabling a local     attacker to learn the memory layout of a setuid     executable despite ASLR (bnc#1057179).

  - CVE-2017-14051: An integer overflow in the     qla2x00_sysfs_write_optrom_ctl function in     drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_attr.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and system crash) by leveraging root access     (bnc#1056588).

  - CVE-2017-10661: Race condition in fs/timerfd.c in the     Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or     cause a denial of service (list corruption or     use-after-free) via simultaneous file-descriptor     operations that leverage improper might_cancel queueing     (bnc#1053152).

  - CVE-2017-12762: In /drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_net.c: A     user-controlled buffer is copied into a local buffer of     constant size using strcpy without a length check which     can cause a buffer overflow. (bnc#1053148).

  - CVE-2017-8831: The saa7164_bus_get function in     drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164-bus.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by changing a certain     sequence-number value, aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability (bnc#1037994).

  - CVE-2017-1000112: An exploitable memory corruption due     to UFO to non-UFO path switch was fixed. (bnc#1052311     bnc#1052365).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.
