Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 real-time kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2019-14615: An information disclosure vulnerability existed due to insufficient control flow in certain data structures for some Intel(R) Processors (bnc#1160195).

CVE-2019-14895: A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the Marvell WiFi driver. The flaw could occur when the station attempts a connection negotiation during the handling of the remote devices country settings. This could allow the remote device to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code (bnc#1157158).

CVE-2019-14896: A heap overflow was found in the add_ie_rates() function of the Marvell Wifi Driver (bsc#1157157).

CVE-2019-14897: A stack overflow was found in the lbs_ibss_join_existing() function of the Marvell Wifi Driver (bsc#1157155).

CVE-2019-14901: A heap overflow flaw was found in the Marvell WiFi driver. The vulnerability allowed a remote attacker to cause a system crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code (bnc#1157042).

CVE-2019-15213: A use-after-free bug caused by a malicious USB device was found in drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-init.c (bsc#1146544).

CVE-2019-16746: An issue was discovered in net/wireless/nl80211.c. The check for the length of variable elements in a beacon head was insufficient, leading to a buffer overflow (bnc#1152107).
