[opensuse-kernel] OpenSUSE 13.1 Official Security Update Kernel 3.11.10-32.1 misses patches from announcement
Hi there, At Mon, 1 Feb 2016 16:11:19 +0100 (CET) an openSUSE-SU-2016:0301-1 security update for the kernel of openSUSE 13.1 got announced. http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2016-02/msg00000.html It mentions that kernel 3.11.10-32.1 fixes these issues. I verified that many updates/fixes including those mentioned in the advisory are already incorporated in the git version as available from http:// download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel://openSUSE-13.1/standard/src/kernel- source-3.11.10-170.1.g1e76e80.src.rpm But when checking with http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/src/kernel-source-3.11.10-32.1.src.... which explicitly carries the version which is mentioned in the security announcement and is also from 1 Feb 2016 I noticed that the actual security fixes are missing in this package! You may easily verify the issue by either looking at series.conf in the supposed update package or simply check the changelog. rpm -qpi --changelog kernel-source-3.11.10-170.1.g1e76e80.src.rpm |grep 'Source Timestamp' Source Timestamp: 2016-01-20 15:13:45 +0100 versus rpm -qpi --changelog http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/src/kernel-source-3.11.10-32.1.src.... |grep 'Source Timestamp' Source Timestamp: 2015-03-05 17:24:00 +0100 The later is definitely outdated. I can only assume that maybe something is wrong with the OBS setup. Maybe Coolo can shed some light on the issue.

Hi, I can confirm this. This was a mistake on our side, caused by some confusion of the handling of evergreen updates . We will reissue this kernel (or if quicker, do the 3.12 update) Ciao, Marcus On Wed, Feb 03, 2016 at 08:46:48AM +0100, Martin Konold wrote:

rpm -qpi --changelog kernel-source-3.11.10-170.1.g1e76e80.src.rpm |grep 'Source Timestamp'

rpm -qpi --changelog http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/src/kernel-source-3.11.10-32.1.src.... |grep 'Source Timestamp'
