TITLE:
SUSE update for kernel

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34069

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34069/

DESCRIPTION:
SUSE has issued an update for the kernel. This fixes a weakness, some
security issues, and some vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by
malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service), bypass
certain security restrictions, and potentially gain escalated
privileges.

SOLUTION:
Apply updated packages.

Note: Due to kABI changes, all kernel module packages also need to be
rebuilt and reapplied.
