   An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available.

Description:

   This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.74-60_64_110 fixes several issues.

   The following security issues were fixed:

   - CVE-2019-14896: A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in
     the Marvell WiFi chip driver. A remote attacker could cause a denial of
     service (system crash) or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when the
     lbs_ibss_join_existing function is called after a STA connects to an AP
     (bsc#1157157).
   - CVE-2019-14897: A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the  Marvell
     WiFi chip driver. An attacker was able to cause a denial of service
     (system crash) or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when a STA works in
     IBSS mode (allows connecting stations together without the use of an AP)
     and connects to another STA (bsc#1157155).
