Security update for the Linux Kernel
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed: - CVE-2023-2483: Fixed a use after free bug in emac_remove due caused by a race condition (bsc#1211037). - CVE-2023-2124: Fixed an out of bound access in the XFS subsystem that could have lead to denial-of-service or potentially privilege escalation (bsc#1210498). - CVE-2023-1670: Fixed a use after free in the Xircom 16-bit PCMCIA Ethernet driver.
