Comment 1 Thomas Leroy 2021-11-08 17:01:39 UTC

Affected codestreams:
 - SUSE:Carwos:1
 - SUSE:SLE-11:Update
 - SUSE:SLE-11-SP2:Update
 - SUSE:SLE-12:Update
 - SUSE:SLE-15:Update

Comment 2 Zoltan Balogh 2022-02-17 20:11:17 UTC

The bug I could not reproduce with the 8.0 codebase from SLE15.

But the patch in the upstream actually makes the code safer so it is ported. The next upcoming MU will contain the patch. If there is a need we may offer a PTF for customers who need it.
