   An update that solves four vulnerabilities and has 7 fixes
   is now available.

Description:

   This update for systemd provides the following fixes:

   Security issues fixed:

   - CVE-2018-16864, CVE-2018-16865: Fixed two memory corruptions through
     attacker-controlled alloca()s (bsc#1120323)
   - CVE-2018-16866: Fixed an information leak in journald (bsc#1120323)
   - CVE-2018-6954: Fix mishandling of symlinks present in non-terminal path
     components (bsc#1080919)
   - Fixed an issue during system startup in relation to encrypted swap disks
     (bsc#1119971)

   Non-security issues fixed:

   - pam_systemd: Fix 'Cannot create session: Already running in a session'
     (bsc#1111498)
   - systemd-vconsole-setup: vconsole setup fails, fonts will not be copied
     to tty (bsc#1114933)
   - systemd-tmpfiles-setup: symlinked /tmp to /var/tmp breaking multiple
     units (bsc#1045723)
   - Fixed installation issue with /etc/machine-id during update (bsc#1117063)
   - btrfs: qgroups are assigned to parent qgroups after reboot (bsc#1093753)
   - logind: Stop managing VT switches if no sessions are registered on that
     VT. (bsc#1101591)
   - udev: Downgrade message when settting inotify watch up fails.
     (bsc#1005023)
   - udev: Ignore the exit code of systemd-detect-virt for memory hot-add.
     In SLE-12-SP3, 80-hotplug-cpu-mem.rules has a memory hot-add rule that
     uses systemd-detect-virt to detect non-zvm environment. The
     systemd-detect-virt returns exit failure code when it detected _none_
     state.  The exit failure code causes that the hot-add memory block can
     not be set to online. (bsc#1076696)
