The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP2 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.
The following security bugs were fixed :
CVE-2020-0543: Fixed a side channel attack against special registers which could have resulted in leaking of read values to cores other than the one which called it. This attack is known as Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) or ‘CrossTalk’ (bsc#1154824).
CVE-2020-12656: Fixed an improper handling of certain domain_release calls leadingch could have led to a memory leak (bsc#1171219).
CVE-2020-12654: Fixed an issue in he wifi driver which could have allowed a remote AP to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow (bsc#1171202).
CVE-2020-12653: Fixed an issue in the wifi driver which could have allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (bsc#1171195).
CVE-2020-12652: Fixed an issue which could have allowed local users to hold an incorrect lock during the ioctl operation and trigger a race condition (bsc#1171218).
CVE-2020-12114: Fixed A pivot_root race condition which could have allowed local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by corrupting a mountpoint reference counter (bsc#1171098).
CVE-2020-10757: Fixed an issue where remaping hugepage DAX to anon mmap could have caused user PTE access (bsc#1172317).
The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.
