Synopsis
The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.
Description
This update for the Linux Kernel 4.12.14-122_222 fixes several issues.
The following security issues were fixed :
CVE-2021-27365: Fixed an issue where data structures did not have appropriate length constraints or checks, and could exceed the PAGE_SIZE value (bsc#1183491).
CVE-2021-27363: Fixed a kernel pointer leak which could have been used to determine the address of the iscsi_transport structure (bsc#1183120).
CVE-2021-27364: Fixed an issue where an unprivileged user could craft Netlink messages (bsc#1182717).
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
Solution
To install this SUSE Security Update use the SUSE recommended installation methods like YaST online_update or 'zypper patch'.
