Notes

Title of the patch
Security update for the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 32 for SLE 12 SP2)
Description of the patch
This update for the Linux Kernel 4.4.121-92_120 fixes several issues. The following security issues were fixed: - CVE-2019-14835: A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way vhost functionality, that translates virtqueue buffers to IOVs, logged the buffer descriptors during migration. A privileged guest user able to pass descriptors with invalid length to the host when migration is underway, could use this flaw to increase their privileges on the host (bsc#1151021). - CVE-2018-5390: Fixed a denial of service ('SegmentSmack') in tcp_collapse_ofo_queue() and tcp_prune_ofo_queue() for every incoming packet (bsc#1102682).
