   An update that solves 11 vulnerabilities and has 18 fixes
   is now available.

Description:



   The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP2 LTSS kernel was updated to receive
   various security and bugfixes.

   The following security bugs were fixed:

   - 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).
   - CVE-2018-5390 aka "SegmentSmack": The Linux Kernel can be forced to make
     very expensive calls to tcp_collapse_ofo_queue() and
     tcp_prune_ofo_queue() for every incoming packet which can lead to a
     denial of service (bnc#1102340).
   - CVE-2018-5391 aka "FragmentSmack": A flaw in the IP packet reassembly
     could be used by remote attackers to consume lots of CPU time
     (bnc#1103097).
   - CVE-2018-14734: drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c allowed
     ucma_leave_multicast to access a certain data structure after a cleanup
     step in ucma_process_join, which allowed attackers to cause a denial of
     service (use-after-free) (bnc#1103119).
   - CVE-2017-18344: The timer_create syscall implementation in
     kernel/time/posix-timers.c didn't properly validate the
     sigevent->sigev_notify field, which leads to out-of-bounds access in the
     show_timer function (called when /proc/$PID/timers is read). This
     allowed userspace applications to read arbitrary kernel memory (on a
     kernel built with CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS and CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE)
     (bnc#1102851 bnc#1103580).
   - CVE-2018-9385: When printing the "driver_override" option from with-in
     the amba driver, a very long line could expose one additional
     uninitialized byte (bnc#1100491).
   - CVE-2018-13053: The alarm_timer_nsleep function in
     kernel/time/alarmtimer.c had an integer overflow via a large relative
     timeout because ktime_add_safe is not used (bnc#1099924).
   - CVE-2018-13405: The inode_init_owner 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 uvesafb_setcmap function in
     drivers/video/fbdev/uvesafb.c could result in local attackers being able
     to crash the kernel or potentially elevate privileges because
     kmalloc_array is not used (bnc#1098016 1100418).
   - CVE-2018-5814: Multiple race condition errors when handling probe,
     disconnect, and rebind operations could be exploited to trigger a
     use-after-free condition or a NULL pointer dereference by sending
     multiple USB over IP packets (bnc#1096480).
