Description: The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 Azure kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed: - Unprivileged BPF has been disabled by default to reduce attack surface as too many security issues have happened in the past (jsc#SLE-22573) You can reenable via systemctl setting /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled to 0. (kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled = 0) - CVE-2021-0941: In bpf_skb_change_head of filter.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a use after free. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation (bnc#1192045). - CVE-2021-31916: An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory write flaw was found in list_devices in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Multi-device driver module in the Linux kernel A bound check failure allowed an attacker with special user (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) privilege to gain access to out-of-bounds memory leading to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability (bnc#1192781). - CVE-2021-20322: Make the ipv4 and ipv6 ICMP exception caches less predictive to avoid information leaks about UDP ports in use. (bsc#1191790) - CVE-2021-34981: Fixed file refcounting in cmtp when cmtp_attach_device fails (bsc#1191961). - CVE-2021-37159: hso_free_net_device in drivers/net/usb/hso.c in the Linux kernel calls unregister_netdev without checking for the NETREG_REGISTERED state, leading to a use-after-free and a double free (bnc#1188601). - CVE-2021-3772: Fixed sctp vtag check in sctp_sf_ootb (bsc#1190351). The following non-security bugs were fixed: - EDAC/sb_edac: Fix top-of-high-memory value for Broadwell/Haswell (bsc#1114648). - Revert "ibmvnic: check failover_pending in login response" (bsc#1190523 ltc#194510). - Revert "x86/kvm: fix vcpu-id indexed array sizes" (git-fixes). - USB: iowarrior: fix control-message timeouts (git-fixes). - USB: serial: keyspan: fix memleak on probe errors (git-fixes). - arm64/sve: Use correct size when reinitialising SVE state (git-fixes). - arm64: pgtable: make __pte_to_phys/__phys_to_pte_val inline functions (git-fixes). - bpf: Fix potential race in tail call compatibility check (git-fixes). - bpf: Move owner type, jited info into array auxiliary data (bsc#1141655). - bpf: Use kvmalloc for map values in syscall (stable-5.14.16). - btrfs: fix memory ordering between normal and ordered work functions (git-fixes). - ceph: take snap_empty_lock atomically with snaprealm refcount change (bsc#1191888). - config.sh: Build cve/linux-4.12 against SLE15-SP1.
