3. Description:

The kernel-alt packages provide the Linux kernel version 4.x.

Security Fix(es):

* kernel: heap-based buffer overflow in mwifiex_process_country_ie()
function in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sta_ioctl.c
(CVE-2019-14895)

* kernel: heap overflow in marvell/mwifiex/tdls.c (CVE-2019-14901)

* kernel: triggering AP to send IAPP location updates for stations before
the required authentication process has completed can lead to DoS
(CVE-2019-5108)

processes via an interrupt (CVE-2019-15031)

* kernel: out-of-bounds array access in __xfrm_policy_unlink
(CVE-2019-15666)

* kernel: a NULL pointer dereference in
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/usb.c leads to a crash (CVE-2019-15099)

* kernel: when cpu.cfs_quota_us is used allows attackers to cause a denial
of service against non-cpu-bound applications (CVE-2019-19922)

* kernel: Null pointer dereference in drop_sysctl_table() in
fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c (CVE-2019-20054)

* kernel: memory leak in mwifiex_tm_cmd in
drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/cfg80211.c (CVE-2019-20095)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
