Description

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP2 kernel was updated.

The following security bugs were fixed:

• CVE-2021-45868: Fixed a wrong validation check in fs/quota/quota_tree.c
  which could lead to an use-after-free if there is a corrupted quota
  file. (bnc#1197366)
• CVE-2022-27666: Fixed a buffer overflow vulnerability in IPsec ESP
  transformation code. This flaw allowed a local attacker with a normal
  user privilege to overwrite kernel heap objects and may cause a local
  privilege escalation. (bnc#1197462)
• CVE-2022-0850: Fixed a kernel information leak vulnerability in
  iov_iter.c. (bsc#1196761)
• CVE-2022-1055: Fixed a use-after-free in tc_new_tfilter that could allow
  a local attacker to gain privilege escalation. (bnc#1197702)
• CVE-2022-1048: Fixed a race Condition in snd_pcm_hw_free leading to
  use-after-free due to the AB/BA lock with buffer_mutex and mmap_lock.
  (bsc#1197331)
• CVE-2022-28390: Fixed a double free in drivers/net/can/usb/ems_usb.c
  vulnerability in the Linux kernel. (bnc#1198031)
• CVE-2022-28388: Fixed a double free in drivers/net/can/usb/usb_8dev.c
  vulnerability in the Linux kernel. (bnc#1198032)
• CVE-2022-28389: Fixed a double free in drivers/net/can/usb/mcba_usb.c
  vulnerability in the Linux kernel. (bnc#1198033)
• CVE-2022-1016: Fixed a vulnerability in the nf_tables component of the
  netfilter subsystem. This vulnerability gives an attacker a powerful
  primitive that can be used to both read from and write to relative stack
  data, which can lead to arbitrary code execution. (bsc#1197227)
• CVE-2022-0854: Fixed a memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernels
  DMA subsystem. This flaw allowed a local user to read random memory from
  the kernel space. (bnc#1196823)
• CVE-2022-26966: Fixed an issue in drivers/net/usb/sr9700.c, which
  allowed attackers to obtain sensitive information from the memory via
  crafted frame lengths from a USB device. (bsc#1196836)
• CVE-2021-39698: Fixed a possible memory corruption due to a use after
  free in aio_poll_complete_work. This could lead to local escalation of
  privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. (bsc#1196956)
• CVE-2021-0920: Fixed a race condition during UNIX socket garbage
  collection that could lead to local privilege escalation. (bsc#119373)

  CVE-2022-23041,CVE-2022-23042: Fixed multiple issues which could have
  lead to read/write access to memory pages or denial of service. These
  issues are related to the Xen PV device frontend drivers. (bsc#1196488)
• CVE-2022-26490: Fixed a buffer overflow in the st21nfca driver. An
  attacker with adjacent NFC access could crash the system or corrupt the
  system memory. (bsc#1196830)
