   These security issues were fixed:

   - CVE-2018-4190: An unspecified issue allowed remote attackers to obtain
     sensitive credential information that is transmitted during a CSS
     mask-image fetch (bsc#1097693).
   - CVE-2018-4199: An unspecified issue allowed remote attackers to execute
     arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and
     application crash) via a crafted web site (bsc#1097693)
   - CVE-2018-4218: An unspecified issue allowed remote attackers to execute
     arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and
     application crash) via a crafted web site that triggers an
     @generatorState use-after-free (bsc#1097693)
   - CVE-2018-4222: An unspecified issue allowed remote attackers to execute
     arbitrary code via a crafted web site that leverages a
     getWasmBufferFromValue
     out-of-bounds read during WebAssembly compilation (bsc#1097693)
   - CVE-2018-4232: An unspecified issue allowed remote attackers to
     overwrite cookies via a crafted web site (bsc#1097693)
   - CVE-2018-4233: An unspecified issue allowed remote attackers to execute
     arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and
     application crash) via a crafted web site (bsc#1097693)
   - CVE-2018-11646: webkitFaviconDatabaseSetIconForPageURL and
     webkitFaviconDatabaseSetIconURLForPageURL mishandle an unset pageURL,
     leading to an application crash (bsc#1095611).

   These non-security issues were fixed:

   - Disable Gigacage if mmap fails to allocate in Linux.
