ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:400538Date: (C)2013-06-17   (M)2024-03-07
Class: PATCHFamily: unix




The openSUSE 12.3 kernel was updated to fix a critical security issue, other security issues and several bugs. Security issues fixed: CVE-2013-2094: The perf_swevent_init function in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel used an incorrect integer data type, which allowed local users to gain privileges via a crafted perf_event_open system call. CVE-2013-0290: The __skb_recv_datagram function in net/core/datagram.c in the Linux kernel did not properly handle the MSG_PEEK flag with zero-length data, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service via a crafted application. Bugs fixed: - qlge: fix dma map leak when the last chunk is not allocated . - ACPI / thermal: do not always return THERMAL_TREND_RAISING for active trip points . - perf: Treat attr.config as u64 in perf_swevent_init . - cxgb4: fix error recovery when t4_fw_hello returns a positive value . - kabi/severities: Ignore drivers/mfd/ucb1400_core It provides internal exports to UCB1400 drivers, that we have just disabled. - Fix -devel package for armv7hl armv7hl kernel flavors in the non-multiplatform configuration , needs more header files from the machine specific directories to be included in kernel-devel. - Update config files: disable UCB1400 on all but ARM Currently UCB1400 is only used on ARM OMAP systems, and part of the code is dead code that can"t even be modularized. - CONFIG_UCB1400_CORE=n - CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_UCB1400=n - CONFIG_GPIO_UCB1400=n - rpm/config.sh: Drop the ARM repository, the KOTD will build against the "ports" repository of openSUSE:12.3 - mm/mmap: check for RLIMIT_AS before unmapping . - rpm/kernel-spec-macros: Properly handle KOTD release numbers with .g<commit> suffix - rpm/kernel-spec-macros: Drop the %release_num macro We no longer put the -rcX tag into the release string. - xen-pciback: notify hypervisor about devices intended to be assigned to guests. - unix/stream: fix peeking with an offset larger than data in queue . - unix/dgram: fix peeking with an offset larger than data in queue . - unix/dgram: peek beyond 0-sized skbs . - net: fix infinite loop in __skb_recv_datagram . - TTY: fix atime/mtime regression . - md/raid1,raid10: fix deadlock with freeze_array . - md: raid1,10: Handle REQ_WRITE_SAME flag in write bios . - KMS: fix EDID detailed timing vsync parsing. - KMS: fix EDID detailed timing frame rate. - Add Netfilter/ebtables support Those modues are needed for proper OpenStack support on ARM, and are also enabled on x86
