An update that solves 17 vulnerabilities and has two security fixes can now be
installed.
## Description:
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 kernel was updated to receive various security
and bugfixes.
The following security bugs were fixed:
* CVE-2023-31085: Fixed a divide-by-zero error in do_div(sz,mtd->erasesize)
that could cause a local DoS. (bsc#1210778)
* CVE-2023-45862: Fixed an issue in the ENE UB6250 reader driver whwere an
object could potentially extend beyond the end of an allocation causing.
(bsc#1216051)
* CVE-2023-34324: Fixed a possible deadlock in Linux kernel event handling.
(bsc#1215745).
* CVE-2023-39189: Fixed a flaw in the Netfilter subsystem that could allow a
local privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read,
leading to a crash or information disclosure. (bsc#1216046)
* CVE-2023-39194: Fixed an out of bounds read in the XFRM subsystem
(bsc#1215861).
* CVE-2023-39193: Fixed an out of bounds read in the xtables subsystem
(bsc#1215860).
* CVE-2023-39192: Fixed an out of bounds read in the netfilter (bsc#1215858).
* CVE-2023-42754: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference in the IPv4 stack that
could lead to denial of service (bsc#1215467).
* CVE-2023-1206: Fixed a hash collision flaw in the IPv6 connection lookup
table which could be exploited by network adjacent attackers, increasing CPU
usage by 95% (bsc#1212703).
* CVE-2023-4921: Fixed a use-after-free vulnerability in the QFQ network
scheduler which could be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation
(bsc#1215275).
* CVE-2023-4622: Fixed a use-after-free vulnerability in the Unix domain
sockets component which could be exploited to achieve local privilege
escalation (bsc#1215117).
* CVE-2023-4623: Fixed a use-after-free issue in the HFSC network scheduler
which could be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation
(bsc#1215115).
* CVE-2020-36766: Fixed a potential information leak in in the CEC driver
(bsc#1215299).
* CVE-2023-1859: Fixed a use-after-free flaw in Xen transport for 9pfs which
could be exploited to crash the system (bsc#1210169).
* CVE-2023-4881: Fixed a out-of-bounds write flaw in the netfilter subsystem
that could lead to potential information disclosure or a denial of service
(bsc#1215221).
* CVE-2023-40283: Fixed use-after-free in l2cap_sock_ready_cb (bsc#1214233).
* CVE-2023-1192: Fixed use-after-free in cifs_demultiplex_thread()
(bsc#1208995).
The following non-security bugs were fixed:
* check-for-config-changes: ignore BUILTIN_RETURN_ADDRESS_STRIPS_PAC
(bsc#1214380). gcc7 on SLE 15 does not support this while later gcc does.
* mkspec: Allow unsupported KMPs (bsc#1214386)
* old-flavors: Drop 2.6 kernels. 2.6 based kernels are EOL, upgrading from
them is no longer suported.
