Description

The following security bugs were fixed:

• CVE-2021-22555: Fixed an heap out-of-bounds write in
  net/netfilter/x_tables.c that could allow local provilege escalation.
  (bsc#1188116)
• CVE-2021-33624: Fixed a bug which allows unprivileged BPF program to
  leak the contents of arbitrary kernel memory (and therefore, of all
  physical memory) via a side-channel. (bsc#1187554)
• CVE-2021-0605: Fixed an out-of-bounds read which could lead to local
  information disclosure in the kernel with System execution privileges
  needed. (bsc#1187601)
• CVE-2021-0512: Fixed a possible out-of-bounds write which could lead to
  local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges
  needed. (bsc#1187595)
• CVE-2020-26558: Fixed a flaw in the Bluetooth LE and BR/EDR secure
  pairing that could permit a nearby man-in-the-middle attacker to
  identify the Passkey used during pairing. (bnc#1179610)
• CVE-2021-34693: Fixed a bug in net/can/bcm.c which could allow local
  users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory because
  parts of a data structure are uninitialized. (bsc#1187452)
• CVE-2021-0129: Fixed an improper access control in BlueZ that may have
  allowed an authenticated user to potentially enable information
  disclosure via adjacent access. (bnc#1186463)
• CVE-2020-36386: Fixed an out-of-bounds read in
  hci_extended_inquiry_result_evt. (bsc#1187038)
• CVE-2020-24588: Fixed a bug that could allow an adversary to abuse
  devices that support receiving non-SSP A-MSDU frames to inject arbitrary
  network packets. (bsc#1185861 bsc#1185863)
• CVE-2021-33909: Fixed an out-of-bounds write in the filesystem layer
  that allows to andobtain full root privileges. (bsc#1188062)
• CVE-2021-3609: Fixed a race condition in the CAN BCM networking protocol
  which allows for local privilege escalation. (bsc#1187215)
• CVE-2020-36385: Fixed a use-after-free flaw in ucma.c which allows for
  local privilege escalation. (bsc#1187050)
• CVE-2021-33200: Fix leakage of uninitialized bpf stack under
  speculation. (bsc#1186484)

The following non-security bugs were fixed:

• af_packet: fix the tx skb protocol in raw sockets with ETH_P_ALL
  (bsc#1176081).
• kabi: preserve struct header_ops after bsc#1176081 fix (bsc#1176081).
• net: Do not set transport offset to invalid value (bsc#1176081).
• net: Introduce parse_protocol header_ops callback (bsc#1176081).
• net/ethernet: Add parse_protocol header_ops support (bsc#1176081).
• net/mlx5e: Remove the wrong assumption about transport offset
  (bsc#1176081).
• net/mlx5e: Trust kernel regarding transport offset (bsc#1176081).
• net/packet: Ask driver for protocol if not provided by user
  (bsc#1176081).
• net/packet: Remove redundant skb->protocol set (bsc#1176081).
• resource: Fix find_next_iomem_res() iteration issue (bsc#1181193).
• scsi: scsi_dh_alua: Retry RTPG on a different path after failure
  (bsc#1174978 bsc#1185701).
• SUNRPC in case of backlog, hand free slots directly to waiting task
  (bsc#1185428).
• SUNRPC: More fixes for backlog congestion (bsc#1185428).
• x86/crash: Add e820 reserved ranges to kdump kernel's e820 table
  (bsc#1181193).
• x86/debug: Extend the lower bound of crash kernel low reservations
  (bsc#1153720).
• x86/e820, ioport: Add a new I/O resource descriptor IORES_DESC_RESERVED
  (bsc#1181193).
• x86/mm: Rework ioremap resource mapping determination (bsc#1181193).
