   An update that solves four vulnerabilities and has 6 fixes
   is now available.

Description:


   The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various
   security and bugfixes.

   The following security bugs were fixed:

   - CVE-2021-26341: Some AMD CPUs may transiently execute beyond
     unconditional direct branches, which may potentially result in data
     leakage (bsc#1201050).
   - CVE-2021-33655: Fixed out of bounds write with ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO
     (bnc#1201635).
   - CVE-2021-33656: Fixed out of bounds write with ioctl PIO_FONT
     (bnc#1201636).
   - CVE-2022-1462: Fixed an out-of-bounds read flaw in the TeleTYpe
     subsystem (bnc#1198829).

   The following non-security bugs were fixed:

   - Add missing recommends of kernel-install-tools to kernel-source-vanilla
     (bsc#1200442)
   - cifs: On cifs_reconnect, resolve the hostname again (bsc#1201926).
   - cifs: Simplify reconnect code when dfs upcall is enabled (bsc#1201926).
   - cifs: To match file servers, make sure the server hostname matches
     (bsc#1201926).
   - cifs: fix memory leak of smb3_fs_context_dup::server_hostname
     (bsc#1201926).
   - cifs: fix potential use-after-free in cifs_echo_request() (bsc#1201926).
   - cifs: set a minimum of 120s for next dns resolution (bsc#1201926).
   - cifs: use the expiry output of dns_query to schedule next resolution
     (bsc#1201926).
   - kernel-binary.spec: Support radio selection for debuginfo. To disable
     debuginfo on 5.18 kernel a radio selection needs to be switched to a
     different selection. This requires disabling the currently active option
     and selecting NONE as debuginfo type.
   - kvm: emulate: Fix SETcc emulation function offsets with SLS
     (bsc#1201930).
   - kvm: emulate: do not adjust size of fastop and setcc subroutines
     (bsc#1201930).
   - pahole 1.22 required for full BTF features. also recommend pahole for
     kernel-source to make the kernel buildable with standard config
   - rpm/*.spec.in: remove backtick usage
   - rpm/constraints.in: skip SLOW_DISK workers for kernel-source
   - rpm/kernel-obs-build.spec.in: Also depend on dracut-systemd (bsc#1195775)
   - rpm/kernel-obs-build.spec.in: add systemd-initrd and terminfo dracut
     module (bsc#1195775)
   - rpm/kernel-obs-build.spec.in: use default dracut modules (bsc#1195926,
     bsc#1198484).


Special Instructions and Notes:

   Please reboot the system after installing this update.
