Security update for the Linux Kernel

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed: - CVE-2022-40982: Fixed transient execution attack called 'Gather Data Sampling' (bsc#1206418). - CVE-2023-0459: Fixed information leak in __uaccess_begin_nospec (bsc#1211738). - CVE-2023-20569: Fixed side channel attack ‘Inception’ or ‘RAS Poisoning’ (bsc#1213287). - CVE-2023-20593: Fixed a ZenBleed issue in 'Zen 2' CPUs that could allow an attacker to potentially access sensitive information (bsc#1213286). - CVE-2023-2985: Fixed an use-after-free vulnerability in hfsplus_put_super in fs/hfsplus/super.c that could allow a local user to cause a denial of service (bsc#1211867). - CVE-2023-34319: Fixed buffer overrun triggered by unusual packet in xen/netback (XSA-432) (bsc#1213546). - CVE-2023-35001: Fixed an out-of-bounds memory access flaw in nft_byteorder that could allow a local attacker to escalate their privilege (bsc#1213059). - CVE-2023-3567: Fixed a use-after-free in vcs_read in drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c (bsc#1213167). - CVE-2023-3609: Fixed reference counter leak leading to overflow in net/sched (bsc#1213586). - CVE-2023-3611: Fixed an out-of-bounds write in net/sched sch_qfq(bsc#1213585). - CVE-2023-3776: Fixed improper refcount update in cls_fw leads to use-after-free (bsc#1213588). - CVE-2023-4133: Fixed use after free bugs caused by circular dependency problem in cxgb4 (bsc#1213970). - CVE-2023-4194: Fixed a type confusion in net tun_chr_open() bsc#1214019).
