This fixes some security issues and vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to manipulate certain data, bypass certain security restrictions, and gain escalated privileges, and by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service). For more information: SA35265 SA37590 SA38133 SA38199 1) A vulnerability is caused due to a NULL pointer dereference when processing IPv6 "Jumbograms". 2) The devtmpfs file system sets incorrect file permissions to it's root directory, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to e.g. gain escalated privileges. Note: This file system is not used by default. SOLUTION: Apply updated packages. x86 Platform: openSUSE 11.2: http://download.opensuse.org/debug/update/11.2/rpm/i586/kernel-debug-debuginfo-2.6.31.12-0.1.1.i586.rpm
