Description:

   The following security issues were fixed:

   - CVE-2021-0941: In bpf_skb_change_head of filter.c, there is a possible
     out of bounds read due to a use after free. This could lead to local
     escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User
     interaction is not needed for exploitation (bnc#1192045).
   - CVE-2021-20322: Make the ipv4 and ipv6 ICMP exception caches less
     predictive to avoid information leaks about UDP ports in use.

     bounds write due to a use after free. This could lead to local
