Aorus X5 laptop
mga6  x86_64  EFI boot on multiboot system
ASUS motherboard
16 GB RAM
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5700HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz
2 x nvidia GeForce GTX 965M

Installed the 3 packages and ran drakboot.
nvidia-current rebuilt during reboot.
Ran the usual battery of tests.
During stress tests the temperature went dangerously high - 92°C, because firefox was misbehaving again, as it does on every installation now.  It settled down and the machine seems to be OK.  Mate is running fine.

subject: Updated kernel-tmb packages fixes security and other bugs
CVE:
 - CVE-2017-10810
src:
  6:
   core:
     - kernel-tmb-4.9.40-1.mga6
description: |
  This kernel-tmb update is based on upstream 4.9.40 and fixes atleast the
  following security issues:

  Linux kernel built with the VirtIO GPU driver(CONFIG_DRM_VIRTIO_GPU) support
  is vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while creating a
  virtio gpu object in virtio_gpu_object_create(). A user/process could use
  this flaw to leak host kernel memory potentially resulting in Dos
  (CVE-2017-10810).

  It also contains followup fixes to the Stack Clash (CVE-2017-1000370,
  CVE-2017-1000371) security issues resolved in kernels released at end
  of June, 2017.

  Other Mageia kernel specific fixes in this updates:
  - enable support for NFS4_1 and NFS4_2 (mga#21182)
  - ALSA: hda/realtek - New codecs support for ALC215/ALC285/ALC289
  - ALSA: hda/realtek - New codec device ID for ALC1220
  - platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Add wapf4 quirk for the X302UA (mga#18756)
