Hi there,

At Mon, 1 Feb 2016 16:11:19 +0100 (CET) an openSUSE-SU-2016:0301-1 security 
update for the kernel of openSUSE 13.1 got announced.

http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2016-02/msg00000.html

It mentions that kernel 3.11.10-32.1 fixes these issues.

I verified that many updates/fixes including those mentioned in the advisory are 
already incorporated in the git version as available from  http://
download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel://openSUSE-13.1/standard/src/kernel-
source-3.11.10-170.1.g1e76e80.src.rpm

But when checking with http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/src/kernel-source-3.11.10-32.1.src.rpm which explicitly carries the version which is 
mentioned in the security announcement and is also from 1 Feb 2016 I noticed 
that the actual security fixes are missing in this package!

You may easily verify the issue by either looking at series.conf in the 
supposed update package or simply check the changelog.

rpm -qpi --changelog kernel-source-3.11.10-170.1.g1e76e80.src.rpm |grep 
'Source Timestamp'  

Source Timestamp: 2016-01-20 15:13:45 +0100

versus

rpm -qpi --changelog http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/src/kernel-source-3.11.10-32.1.src.rpm |grep 'Source Timestamp'  

Source Timestamp: 2015-03-05 17:24:00 +0100

The later is definitely outdated. 

I can only assume that maybe something is wrong with the OBS setup. Maybe 
Coolo can shed some light on the issue.

Kind regards
