______________________________________________________________________________

   An update that solves 22 vulnerabilities and has 95 fixes
   is now available. It includes one version update.

Description:

   The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP2 kernel has been updated to
   3.0.74 fix  various security issues and bugs:

   This update brings some features:

   * Updated HD-audio drivers for Nvidia/AMD HDMI and
   Haswell audio (FATE#314311 FATE#313695)
   * Lustre enablement patches were added (FATE#314679).
   * SGI UV (Ultraviolet) platform support. (FATE#306952)

   Security issues fixed in this update:

   * CVE-2013-0349: The hidp_setup_hid function in
   net/bluetooth/hidp/core.c in the Linux kernel did not
   properly copy a certain name field, which allowed local
   users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by
   setting a long name and making an HIDPCONNADD ioctl call.
   * CVE-2012-2137: Buffer overflow in virt/kvm/irq_comm.c
   in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel allowed local
   users to cause a denial of service (crash) and to possibly
   execute arbitrary code via vectors related to Message
   Signaled Interrupts (MSI), irq routing entries, and an
   incorrect check by the setup_routing_entry function before
   invoking the kvm_set_irq function.
   * CVE-2012-6549: The isofs_export_encode_fh function in
   fs/isofs/export.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a
   certain structure member, which allowed local users to
   obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory via a
   crafted application.
   * CVE-2012-6548: The udf_encode_fh function in
   fs/udf/namei.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a
   certain structure member, which allowed local users to
   obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory via a
   crafted application.
   * CVE-2013-0160: Timing side channel on attacks were
   possible on /dev/ptmx that could allow local attackers to
   predict keypresses like e.g. passwords. This has been fixed
   by not updating accessed/modified time on the pty devices.
   Note that this might break pty idle detection, so it might
   get reverted again.
   * CVE-2013-0216: The Xen netback functionality in the
   Linux kernel allowed guest OS users to cause a denial of
   service (loop) by triggering ring pointer corruption.
   * CVE-2013-0231: The pciback_enable_msi function in the
   PCI backend driver
   (drivers/xen/pciback/conf_space_capability_msi.c) in Xen
   for the Linux allowed guest OS users with PCI device access
   to cause a denial of service via a large number of kernel
   log messages.
   * CVE-2013-0311: The translate_desc function in
   drivers/vhost/vhost.c in the Linux kernel did not properly
   handle cross-region descriptors, which allowed guest OS
   users to obtain host OS privileges by leveraging KVM guest
   OS privileges.
   * CVE-2013-0913: Integer overflow in
   drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c in the i915
   driver in the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem in
   the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of
   service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have
   unspecified other impact via a crafted application that
   triggers many relocation copies, and potentially leads to a
   race condition.
   * CVE-2013-0914: The flush_signal_handlers function in
   kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel preserved the value of
   the sa_restorer field across an exec operation, which makes
   it easier for local users to bypass the ASLR protection
   mechanism via a crafted application containing a sigaction
   system call.
   * CVE-2013-1767: Use-after-free vulnerability in the
   shmem_remount_fs function in mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel
   allowed local users to gain privileges or to cause a denial
   of service (system crash) by remounting a tmpfs filesystem
   without specifying a required mpol (aka mempolicy) mount
   option.
   * CVE-2013-1772: The log_prefix function in
   kernel/printk.c in the Linux kernel 3.x did not properly
   remove a prefix string from a syslog header, which allowed
   local users to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow
   and system crash) by leveraging /dev/kmsg write access and
   triggering a call_console_drivers function call.
   * CVE-2013-1774: The chase_port function in
   drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel allowed
   local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
   dereference and system crash) via an attempted /dev/ttyUSB
   read or write operation on a disconnected Edgeport USB
   serial converter.
   * CVE-2013-1792: Race condition in the
   install_user_keyrings function in
   security/keys/process_keys.c in the Linux kernel allowed
   local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
   dereference and system crash) via crafted keyctl system
   calls that trigger keyring operations in simultaneous
   threads.
   * CVE-2013-1796: The kvm_set_msr_common function in
   arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel did not ensure a
   required time_page alignment during an MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME
   operation, which allowed guest OS users to cause a denial
   of service (buffer overflow and host OS memory corruption)
   or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted
   application.
   * CVE-2013-1797: Use-after-free vulnerability in
   arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel allowed guest OS
   users to cause a denial of service (host OS memory
   corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
   crafted application that triggers use of a guest physical
   address (GPA) in (1) movable or (2) removable memory during
   an MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME kvm_set_msr_common operation.
   * CVE-2013-1798: The ioapic_read_indirect function in
   virt/kvm/ioapic.c in the Linux kernel did not properly
   handle a certain combination of invalid IOAPIC_REG_SELECT
   and IOAPIC_REG_WINDOW operations, which allows guest OS
   users to obtain sensitive information from host OS memory
   or cause a denial of service (host OS OOPS) via a crafted
   application.
   * CVE-2013-1848: fs/ext3/super.c in the Linux kernel
   used incorrect arguments to functions in certain
   circumstances related to printk input, which allowed local
   users to conduct format-string attacks and possibly gain
   privileges via a crafted application.
   * CVE-2013-1860: Heap-based buffer overflow in the
   wdm_in_callback function in drivers/usb/class/cdc-wdm.c in
   the Linux kernel allowed physically proximate attackers to
   cause a denial of service (system crash) or to possibly
   execute arbitrary code via a crafted cdc-wdm USB device.
   * CVE-2013-2634: net/dcb/dcbnl.c in the Linux kernel
   did not initialize certain structures, which allowed local
   users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack
   memory via a crafted application.
   * CVE-2013-2635: The rtnl_fill_ifinfo function in
   net/core/rtnetlink.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize
   a certain structure member, which allowed local users to
   obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a
   crafted application.
   * CVE-2013-0268: The msr_open function in
   arch/x86/kernel/msr.c in the Linux kernel allowed local
   users to bypass intended capability restrictions by
   executing a crafted application as root, as demonstrated by
   msr32.c.
