VUL-0: CVE-2015-8830: kernel: AIO write triggers integer overflow in some protocols
Last modified: 2016-08-24 13:13:42 UTC
rh#1314275 It was found that AIO interface permitted reading or writing 2 GiB of data or more in a single chunk, which could lead to an integer overflow when applied to certain filesystems, socket or device types.

This is already present in SLE12-SP1 kernel, though in a slightly different way. Reference: commit 2698377daeb469a9d68021979d2e506922f788da I don't think this makes sense in previous kernels. See bug#969354 for older kernels. What needs to be done here?
opensuse 13.2 is the only one missing this patch. Patch applied.
