  <description>
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 kernel was updated to 3.12.31 to receive
various security and bugfixes.

Security issues fixed:
CVE-2014-9322: A local privilege escalation in the x86_64 32bit compatibility
signal handling was fixed, which could be used by local attackers to crash
the machine or execute code.

CVE-2014-9090: Various issues in LDT handling in 32bit compatibility mode on
the x86_64 platform were fixed, where local attackers could crash the machine.

CVE-2014-8133: Insufficient validation of TLS register usage could leak information
from the kernel stack to userspace.

CVE-2014-7826: kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c in the Linux kernel did
not properly handle private syscall numbers during use of the ftrace
subsystem, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial
of service (invalid pointer dereference) via a crafted application.

CVE-2014-3647: Nadav Amit reported that the KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine) mishandled
noncanonical addresses when emulating instructions that change the rip
(Instruction Pointer). A guest user with access to I/O or the MMIO could use
this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) of the guest.

CVE-2014-3611: A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux
kernel's KVM subsystem handled PIT (Programmable Interval Timer)
emulation. A guest user who has access to the PIT I/O ports could use
this flaw to crash the host.

CVE-2014-3610: If the guest writes a noncanonical value to certain MSR
registers, KVM will write that value to the MSR in the host context and
a #GP will be raised leading to kernel panic. A privileged guest user
could have used this flaw to crash the host.

CVE-2014-7841: A remote attacker could have used a flaw in SCTP to crash the
system by sending a maliciously prepared SCTP packet in order to trigger
a NULL pointer dereference on the server.

CVE-2014-3673: The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel allowed
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via
a malformed ASCONF chunk, related to net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c and
net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c.

CVE-2014-3185: Multiple buffer overflows in the command_port_read_callback
function in drivers/usb/serial/whiteheat.c in the Whiteheat USB Serial
Driver in the Linux kernel allowed physically proximate attackers to
execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption
and system crash) via a crafted device that provides a large amount of
(1) EHCI or (2) XHCI data associated with a bulk response.
