   An update that solves 14 vulnerabilities and has 15 fixes
   is now available.

Description:



   The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 GA LTSS kernel was updated to receive various
   security and bugfixes.

   The following security bugs were fixed:

   - CVE-2020-0305: In cdev_get of char_dev.c, there is a possible
     use-after-free due to a race condition. This could lead to local
     escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User
     interaction is not needed for exploitation (bnc#1174462).
   - CVE-2019-20908: An issue was discovered in drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c
     where incorrect access permissions for the efivar_ssdt ACPI variable
     could be used by attackers to bypass lockdown or secure boot
     restrictions, aka CID-1957a85b0032 (bnc#1173567).
   - CVE-2020-15780: An issue was discovered in drivers/acpi/acpi_configfs.c
     where injection of malicious ACPI tables via configfs could be used by
     attackers to bypass lockdown and secure boot restrictions, aka
     CID-75b0cea7bf30 (bnc#1173573).
   - CVE-2020-15393: usbtest_disconnect in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c had a
     memory leak, aka CID-28ebeb8db770 (bnc#1173514).
   - CVE-2020-12771: btree_gc_coalesce in drivers/md/bcache/btree.c has a
     deadlock if a coalescing operation fails (bnc#1171732).
   - CVE-2019-16746: An issue was discovered in net/wireless/nl80211.c which
     did not check the length of variable elements in a beacon head, leading
     to a buffer overflow (bnc#1152107 1173659).
   - CVE-2020-12888: The VFIO PCI driver mishandled attempts to access
     disabled memory space (bnc#1171868).
   - CVE-2020-10769: A buffer over-read flaw was found in
     crypto_authenc_extractkeys in crypto/authenc.c in the IPsec
     Cryptographic algorithm's module, authenc. When a payload longer than 4
     bytes, and is not following 4-byte alignment boundary guidelines, it
     causes a buffer over-read threat, leading to a system crash. This flaw
     allowed a local attacker with user privileges to cause a denial of
     service (bnc#1173265).
   - CVE-2020-10773: A kernel stack information leak on s390/s390x was fixed
     (bnc#1172999).
   - CVE-2020-14416: A race condition in tty->disc_data handling in the slip
     and slcan line discipline could lead to a use-after-free, aka
     CID-0ace17d56824. This affects drivers/net/slip/slip.c and
     drivers/net/can/slcan.c (bnc#1162002).
   - CVE-2020-10768: Indirect branch speculation could have been enabled
     after it was force-disabled by the PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE prctl command.
     (bnc#1172783).
   - CVE-2020-10766: Fixed Rogue cross-process SSBD shutdown, where a Linux
     scheduler logical bug allows an attacker to turn off the SSBD
     protection. (bnc#1172781).
   - CVE-2020-10767: Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier was force-disabled
     when STIBP is unavailable or enhanced IBRS is available.  (bnc#1172782).
   - CVE-2020-13974: drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c had an integer overflow if
     k_ascii is called several times in a row, aka CID-b86dab054059
     (bnc#1172775).

   The following non-security bugs were fixed:

   - Merge ibmvnic reset fixes (bsc#1158755 ltc#182094).
   - block, bfq: add requeue-request hook (bsc#1104967 bsc#1171673).

   - ibmvnic: Skip fatal error reset after passive init (bsc#1171078
     ltc#184239).
   - ibmvnic: continue to init in CRQ reset returns H_CLOSED (bsc#1173280
     ltc#185369).
   - intel_idle: Graceful probe failure when MWAIT is disabled (bsc#1174115).
   - livepatch: Apply vmlinux-specific KLP relocations early (bsc#1071995).
   - livepatch: Disallow vmlinux.ko (bsc#1071995).
   - livepatch: Make klp_apply_object_relocs static (bsc#1071995).
   - livepatch: Prevent module-specific KLP rela sections from referencing
     vmlinux symbols (bsc#1071995).
   - livepatch: Remove .klp.arch (bsc#1071995).
   - vfio/pci: Fix SR-IOV VF handling with MMIO blocking (bsc#1051510).
   - vfio/pci: Fix SR-IOV VF handling with MMIO blocking (bsc#1174000).
   - vfio/pci: Mask buggy SR-IOV VF INTx support (bsc#1051510).
