gpp_maybe Security update for the linux kernel (live patch 8 for sle 12 sp3)
SUSE-SLE-Live-Patching-12-SP3-2019-296


This update for the Linux Kernel 4.4.114-94_11 fixes one issue. The following security issue was fixed: - CVE-2018-16884: A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFS41+ subsystem. NFS41+ shares mounted in different network namespaces at the same time could make bc_svc_process() use wrong back-channel IDs and cause a use-after-free vulnerability. Thus a malicious container user can cause a host kernel memory corruption and a system panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out (bsc#1119947).
