This fixes some security issues and vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to bypass certain security restrictions or cause a DoS (Denial of Service), and by malicious people to conduct spoofing attacks, disclose sensitive information, conduct cross-site script and HTTP response splitting attacks, and compromise a vulnerable system. For more information: SA25073 SA30111 SA32964 SA33047 SA33293 SA33980 SA33406 SA34081 SA34430 SA34468 SA34567 A security issue is caused due to the "/var/run/multipathd.sock" being world-writable, which can be exploited to e.g. send arbitrary commands to the multipath daemon. SOLUTION: Apply updated packages using YaST Online Update or the SUSE FTP server.
