The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 Azure kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.
The following security bugs were fixed :
CVE-2020-15437: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference which could have allowed local users to cause a denial of service(bsc#1179140).
CVE-2020-27777: Restrict RTAS requests from userspace (bsc#1179107).
CVE-2020-28974: Fixed a slab-out-of-bounds read in fbcon which could have been used by local attackers to read privileged information or potentially crash the kernel (bsc#1178589).
CVE-2020-28915: Fixed a buffer over-read in the fbcon code which could have been used by local attackers to read kernel memory (bsc#1178886).
CVE-2020-8694: Insufficient access control for some Intel® Processors may have allowed an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access (bsc#1170415).
CVE-2020-25668: Fixed a use-after-free in con_font_op() (bsc#1178123).
CVE-2020-25704: Fixed a memory leak in perf_event_parse_addr_filter() (bsc#1178393).
CVE-2020-25669: Fixed a use-after-free read in sunkbd_reinit() (bsc#1178182).
The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.
