Summary
Security update for the Linux Kernel
Details

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 GA LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

  • CVE-2018-13053: The alarmtimernsleep function in kernel/time/alarmtimer.c had an integer overflow via a large relative timeout because ktimeaddsafe is not used (bnc#1099924).
  • CVE-2018-13405: The inodeinitowner function in fs/inode.c allowed local users to create files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID (bnc#1100416).
  • CVE-2018-13406: An integer overflow in the uvesafbsetcmap function in drivers/video/fbdev/uvesafb.c could result in local attackers being able to crash the kernel or potentially elevate privileges because kmallocarray is not used (bnc#1098016 bnc#1100418).
  • CVE-2018-14734: drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c allowed ucmaleavemulticast to access a certain data structure after a cleanup step in ucmaprocessjoin, which allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) (bnc#1103119).
  • CVE-2018-3620: Local attackers on baremetal systems could use speculative code patterns on hyperthreaded processors to read data present in the L1 Datacache used by other hyperthreads on the same CPU core, potentially leaking sensitive data. (bnc#1087081).
  • CVE-2018-3646: Local attackers in virtualized guest systems could use speculative code patterns on hyperthreaded processors to read data present in the L1 Datacache used by other hyperthreads on the same CPU core, potentially leaking sensitive data, even from other virtual machines or the host system. (bnc#1089343).
