Need advisories please Thomas.

Advisory:

This kernel update is based on upstream -longterm 3.14.41 and fixes
the following security issues:

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_generic.c in the Linux kernel before
3.18 generates incorrect conntrack entries during handling of certain
iptables rule sets for the SCTP, DCCP, GRE, and UDP-Lite protocols,
which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions
via packets with disallowed port numbers (CVE-2014-8160).

The em_sysenter function in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel
before 3.18.5, when the guest OS lacks SYSENTER MSR initialization,
allows guest OS users to gain guest OS privileges or cause a denial of
service (guest OS crash) by triggering use of a 16-bit code segment for
emulation of a SYSENTER instruction (CVE-2015-0239).

It was found that the Linux kernel's ping socket implementation didn't
properly handle socket unhashing during spurious disconnects which could
lead to use-after-free flaw. On x86-64 architecture systems, a local user
able to create ping sockets could use this flaw to crash the system. On
non-x86-64 architecture systems, a local user able to create ping sockets
could use this flaw to increase their privileges on the system.
Note: By default ping sockets are disabled on the system 
(net.ipv4.ping_group_range = 1	0) and have to be explicitly enabled by the
system administrator for specific user groups in order to exploit this issue
(CVE-2015-3636).

For other fixes in this update, see the referenced changelogs.

So this is not a regression in this update as kernel-firmware-nonfree was pushed as part of http://advisories.mageia.org/MGAA-2014-0175.html on: 28 Sep 2014

Can you open a separate bug for this and attach output of lspcidrake -v

also please attach output of a journalctl -b with both old and new kernel-firmware-nonfree so I can see what it complains about

Advisory uploaded.

Is this expected Thomas? (again from comment 5)

Ah, yes. I forgot to comment on that.

It is expected. the server kernel needs hardware PAE/NX in order to support up to 64GB of RAM, so it wont boot if it does find the hw support.

OK thankyou. Mauricio you can give the bug number for your kernel-firmware-nonfree bug here too if you like when you create one.

Validating this one.

Please push to 4 updates

Thanks
