Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.4.2020.1146.1
Category:SuSE Local Security Checks
Title:SUSE: Security Advisory (SUSE-SU-2020:1146-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'Linux Kernel' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2020:1146-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'Linux Kernel' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2020:1146-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

CVE-2020-8834: KVM on Power8 processors had a conflicting use of
HSTATE_HOST_R1 to store r1 state in kvmppc_hv_entry plus in
kvmppc_{save,restore}_tm, leading to a stack corruption. Because of
this, an attacker with the ability to run code in kernel space of a
guest VM can cause the host kernel to panic (bnc#1168276).

CVE-2020-11494: An issue was discovered in slc_bump in
drivers/net/can/slcan.c, which allowed attackers to read uninitialized
can_frame data, potentially containing sensitive information from kernel
stack memory, if the configuration lacks CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL
(bnc#1168424).

CVE-2020-10942: In get_raw_socket in drivers/vhost/net.c lacks
validation of an sk_family field, which might allow attackers to trigger
kernel stack corruption via crafted system calls (bnc#1167629).

CVE-2019-9458: In the video driver there was a use after free due to a
race condition. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no
additional execution privileges needed (bnc#1168295).

CVE-2019-3701: Fixed an issue in can_can_gw_rcv, which could cause a
system crash (bnc#1120386).

CVE-2019-19770: Fixed a use-after-free in the debugfs_remove function
(bsc#1159198).

CVE-2020-11669: Fixed an issue where arch/powerpc/kernel/idle_book3s.S
did not have save/restore functionality for PNV_POWERSAVE_AMR,
PNV_POWERSAVE_UAMOR, and PNV_POWERSAVE_AMOR (bnc#1169390).

The following non-security bugs were fixed:

ACPICA: Introduce ACPI_ACCESS_BYTE_WIDTH() macro (bsc#1051510).

ACPI: watchdog: Fix gas->access_width usage (bsc#1051510).

ahci: Add support for Amazon's Annapurna Labs SATA controller
(bsc#1169013).

ALSA: ali5451: remove redundant variable capture_flag (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: core: Add snd_device_get_state() helper (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: core: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
(bsc#1051510).

ALSA: emu10k1: Fix endianness annotations (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda/ca0132 - Add Recon3Di quirk to handle integrated sound on EVGA
X99 Classified motherboard (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda/ca0132 - Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
(bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda_codec: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
(bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda: default enable CA0132 DSP support (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda: Fix potential access overflow in beep helper (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda/realtek - a fake key event is triggered by running shutup
(bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda/realtek - Enable headset mic of Acer X2660G with ALC662
(git-fixes).

ALSA: hda/realtek: Enable mute LED on an HP system (bsc#1051510).

ALSA: hda/realtek - Enable the headset of Acer N50-600 with ALC662
(git-fixes).

ALSA: hda/realtek: Fix pop noise on ALC225 (git-fixes).

ALSA: hda/realtek - Remove now-unnecessary XPS 13 headphone noise fixups
