{"id":"SUSE-SU-2016:2007-1","summary":"Security update for Linux Kernel Live Patch 3 for SLE 12 SP1","details":"This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.53-60_30 fixes the several issues.\n\nThese security issues were fixed:\n- CVE-2016-4470: The key_reject_and_link function in security/keys/key.c in the Linux kernel did not ensure that a certain data structure is initialized, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via vectors involving a crafted keyctl request2 command (bsc#984764).\n- CVE-2016-1583: The ecryptfs_privileged_open function in fs/ecryptfs/kthread.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (stack memory consumption) via vectors involving crafted mmap calls for /proc pathnames, leading to recursive pagefault handling (bsc#983144).\n- CVE-2016-4565: The InfiniBand (aka IB) stack in the Linux kernel incorrectly relied on the write system call, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a uAPI interface (bsc#980883).\n- CVE-2016-0758: Integer overflow in lib/asn1_decoder.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges via crafted ASN.1 data (bsc#980856).\n- CVE-2016-2053: The asn1_ber_decoder function in lib/asn1_decoder.c in the Linux kernel allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via an ASN.1 BER file that lacks a public key, leading to mishandling by the public_key_verify_signature function in crypto/asymmetric_keys/public_key.c (bsc#979074).\n- CVE-2015-8816: The hub_activate function in drivers/usb/core/hub.c in the Linux kernel did not properly maintain a hub-interface data structure, which allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by unplugging a USB hub device (bsc#979064).\n- CVE-2016-3134: The netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not validate certain offset fields, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via an IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE setsockopt call (bsc#971793).\n\nThis non-security issue was fixed:\n- bsc#973570: The fix for CVE-2013-7446 introduced a bug that could have possibly lead to a softlockup. \n","modified":"2026-02-04T04:05:48.293819Z","published":"2016-08-09T11:25:25Z","related":["CVE-2013-7446","CVE-2015-8816","CVE-2016-0758","CVE-2016-1583","CVE-2016-2053","CVE-2016-3134","CVE-2016-4470","CVE-2016-4565"],"upstream":["CVE-2013-7446","CVE-2015-8816","CVE-2016-0758","CVE-2016-1583","CVE-2016-2053","CVE-2016-3134","CVE-2016-4470","CVE-2016-4565"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.suse.com/support/update/announcement/2016/suse-su-20162007-1/"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/971793"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/973570"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/979064"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/979074"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/980856"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/980883"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/983144"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/984764"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-7446"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2015-8816"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-0758"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-1583"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-2053"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-3134"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-4470"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-4565"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kgraft-patch-SLE12-SP1_Update_3","ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Live Patching 12","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/kgraft-patch-SLE12-SP1_Update_3&distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Live%20Patching%2012"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3-2.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"kgraft-patch-3_12_53-60_30-default":"3-2.1","kgraft-patch-3_12_53-60_30-xen":"3-2.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/security/osv/SUSE-SU-2016:2007-1.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3"}
