Description:
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.
The following security bugs were fixed:
- CVE-2019-16746: There was an issue in net/wireless/nl80211.c where the kernel did not check the length of variable elements in a beacon head, leading to a buffer overflow (bnc#1152107).
- CVE-2019-19066: Fixed memory leak in the bfad_im_get_stats() function in drivers/scsi/bfa/bfad_attr.c that allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering bfa_port_get_stats() failures (bnc#1157303).
- CVE-2019-19051: Fixed memory leak in the i2400m_op_rfkill_sw_toggle() function in drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/op-rfkill.c that allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) (bnc#1159024).
- CVE-2019-19338: There was an incomplete fix for Transaction Asynchronous Abort (TAA) (bsc#1158954).
- CVE-2019-19332: There was an OOB memory write via kvm_dev_ioctl_get_cpuid (bsc#1158827).
- CVE-2019-19537: There was a race condition bug that could have been caused by a malicious USB device in the USB character device driver layer (bnc#1158904).
- CVE-2019-19535: There was an info-leak bug that could have been caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/net/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_fd.c driver (bnc#1158903).
- CVE-2019-19527: There was a use-after-free bug that could have been caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/hid/usbhid/hiddev.c driver (bnc#1158900).
- CVE-2019-19526: There was a use-after-free bug that could have been caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/nfc/pn533/usb.c driver (bnc#1158893).
- CVE-2019-19533: There was an info-leak bug that could have been caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/media/usb/ttusb-dec/ttusb_dec.c driver (bnc#1158834).
- CVE-2019-19532: There were multiple out-of-bounds write bugs that could have been caused by a malicious USB device in the Linux kernel HID drivers (bnc#1158824).

- CVE-2019-15213: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel, there was a use-after-free caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-init.c driver (bnc#1146544).
- CVE-2019-19531: There was a use-after-free bug that can be caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c driver (bnc#1158445).
- CVE-2019-19543: There was a use-after-free in serial_ir_init_module() in drivers/media/rc/serial_ir.c (bnc#1158427).
- CVE-2019-19525: There was a use-after-free bug that can be caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/net/ieee802154/atusb.c driver (bnc#1158417).
- CVE-2019-19530: There was a use-after-free bug that can be caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c driver (bnc#1158410).
- CVE-2019-19536: There was an info-leak bug that can be caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/net/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_pro.c driver (bnc#1158394).

- CVE-2019-14901: A heap overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel in Marvell WiFi chip driver. The vulnerability allowed a remote attacker to cause a system crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. The highest threat with this vulnerability is with the availability of the system. If code execution occurs, the code will run with the permissions of root. This will affect both confidentiality and integrity of files on the system (bnc#1157042).
- CVE-2019-19077: A memory leak in the bnxt_r
