QID 751155

The suse linux enterprise 12 sp5 azure kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.
the following security bugs were fixed: - cve-2018-9517: fixed possible memory corruption due to a use after free in pppol2tp_connect (bsc#1108488).
- cve-2019-3874: fixed possible denial of service attack via sctp socket buffer used by a userspace applications (bnc#1129898).
- cve-2019-3900: fixed an infinite loop issue while handling incoming packets in handle_rx() (bnc#1133374).
- cve-2021-3640: fixed a use-after-free vulnerability in function sco_sock_sendmsg() in the bluetooth stack (bsc#1188172).
- cve-2021-3653: missing validation of the `int_ctl` vmcb field and allows a malicious l1 guest to enable avic support for the l2 guest.
(bsc#1189399).
- cve-2021-3656: missing validation of the the `virt_ext` vmcb field and allows a malicious l1 guest to disable both vmload/vmsave intercepts and vls for the l2 guest (bsc#1189400).
- cve-2021-3679: a lack of cpu resource in tracing module functionality was found in the way user uses trace ring buffer in a specific way.
Only privileged local users (with cap_sys_admin capability) could use this flaw to starve the resources causing denial of service (bnc#1189057).
- cve-2021-3732: mounting overlayfs inside an unprivileged user namespace can reveal files (bsc#1189706).
- cve-2021-3753: fixed race out-of-bounds in virtual terminal handling (bsc#1190025).
- cve-2021-3759: unaccounted ipc objects in linux kernel could have lead to breaking memcg limits and dos attacks (bsc#1190115).
- cve-2021-38160: data corruption or loss could be triggered by an untrusted device that supplies a buf->len value exceeding the buffer size in drivers/char/virtio_console.c (bsc#1190117) - cve-2021-38198: arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h incorrectly computes the access permissions of a shadow page, leading to a missing guest protection page fault (bnc#1189262).
- cve-2021-38204: drivers/usb/host/max3421-hcd.c allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and panic) by removing a max-3421 usb device in certain situations (bnc#1189291).

Successful exploitation allows attacker to compromise the system.
