This update for the Linux Kernel 4.4.114-92_64 fixes several issues.
The following security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-13166: An elevation of privilege vulnerability     in the kernel v4l2 video driver was fixed.
    (bsc#1085447).

  - CVE-2018-8897: A statement in the System Programming     Guide of the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software     Developer's Manual (SDM) was mishandled in the     development of some or all operating-system kernels,     resulting in unexpected behavior for #DB exceptions that     are deferred by MOV SS or POP SS, as demonstrated by     (for example) privilege escalation in Windows, macOS,     some Xen configurations, or FreeBSD, or a Linux kernel     crash. The MOV to SS and POP SS instructions inhibit     interrupts (including NMIs), data breakpoints, and     single step trap exceptions until the instruction     boundary following the next instruction (SDM Vol. 3A;
    section 6.8.3). (The inhibited data breakpoints are     those on memory accessed by the MOV to SS or POP to SS     instruction itself.) Note that debug exceptions are not     inhibited by the interrupt enable (EFLAGS.IF) system     flag (SDM Vol. 3A; section 2.3). If the instruction     following the MOV to SS or POP to SS instruction is an     instruction like SYSCALL, SYSENTER, INT 3, etc. that     transfers control to the operating system at CPL is     complete. OS kernels may not expect this order of events     and may therefore experience unexpected behavior when it     occurs (bsc#1090368).

  - CVE-2018-8781: The udl_fb_mmap function in     drivers/gpu/drm/udl/udl_fb.c had an integer-overflow     vulnerability allowing local users with access to the     udldrmfb driver to obtain full read and write     permissions on kernel physical pages, resulting in a     code execution in kernel space (bsc#1090646).

  - bsc#1083125: Fixed kgraft: small race in reversion code

  - CVE-2018-1087: kernel KVM was vulnerable to a flaw in     the way the Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor handled     exceptions delivered after a stack switch operation via     Mov SS or Pop SS instructions. During the stack switch     operation, the processor did not deliver interrupts and     exceptions, rather they are delivered once the first     instruction after the stack switch is executed. An     unprivileged KVM guest user could use this flaw to crash     the guest or, potentially, escalate their privileges in     the guest (bsc#1090869) before
