   An update that solves one vulnerability and has one errata
   is now available.

Description:

   This update for the Linux Kernel 4.12.14-150_17 fixes several issues.

   The following security issue was fixed:

   - CVE-2019-14835: A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way vhost
     functionality, that translates virtqueue buffers to IOVs, logged the
     buffer descriptors during migration. A privileged guest user able to
     pass descriptors with invalid length to the host when migration is
     underway, could use this flaw to increase their privileges on the host
     (bsc#1151021).
