   An update that fixes three vulnerabilities is now available.

Description:

   This update for the Linux Kernel 4.12.14-150_66 fixes several issues.

   The following security issues were fixed:

   - CVE-2020-36322: Fixed an issue inside the FUSE filesystem implementation
     where fuse_do_getattr() calls make_bad_inode() in inappropriate
     situations, could have caused a system crash. NOTE: the original fix for
     this vulnerability was incomplete, and its incompleteness is tracked as
     CVE-2021-28950 (bsc#1184952).
   - CVE-2020-0433: Fixed blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter of blk-mq-tag.c, where a
     possible use after free due to improper locking could have happened.
     This could have led to local escalation of privilege with no additional
     execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for
     exploitation (bnc#1178066).
   - CVE-2021-29154: Fixed BPF JIT compilers that allowed to execute
     arbitrary code within the kernel context (bsc#1184710)
