Summary

Security update for Linux Kernel Live Patch 6 for SLE 12 SP1

Details

This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.59-60_45 fixes several issues.

The following security bugs were fixed: - CVE-2016-8655: A race condition in the afpacket packetsetring function could be used by local attackers to crash the kernel or gain privileges (bsc#1012759). - CVE-2016-9555: The sctpsfootb function in net/sctp/smstatefuns.c in the Linux kernel lacks chunk-length checking for the first chunk, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds slab access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted SCTP data (bsc#1012183).
