    descriptionSeveral security related problems have been fixed in the Linux kernel 2.4.17 used for the S/390 architecture, mostly by backporting fixes from 2.4.18 and incorporating recent security fixes. The corrections are listed below with the identification from the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project : - CVE-2002-0429 : The iBCS routines in arch/i386/kernel/traps.c for Linux kernels 2.4.18 and earlier on x86 systems allow local users to kill arbitrary processes via a binary compatibility interface (lcall). - CAN-2003-0001 : Multiple ethernet network interface card (NIC) device drivers do not pad frames with null bytes, which allows remote attackers to obtain information from previous packets or kernel memory by using malformed packets, as demonstrated by Etherleak. - CAN-2003-0244 : The route cache implementation in Linux 2.4, and the Netfilter IP conntrack module, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via packets with forged source addresses that cause a large number of hash table collisions related to the PREROUTING chain. - CAN-2003-0246 : The ioperm system call in Linux kernel 2.4.20 and earlier does not properly restrict privileges, which allows local users to gain read or write access to certain I/O ports. - CAN-2003-0247 : A vulnerability in the TTY layer of the Linux kernel 2.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (

    "Several security related problems have been fixed in the Linux kernel
    2.4.17 used for the S/390 architecture, mostly by backporting fixes
    from 2.4.18 and incorporating recent security fixes. The corrections
    are listed below with the identification from the Common
    Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project :
    
      - CVE-2002-0429 :
        The iBCS routines in arch/i386/kernel/traps.c for Linux
        kernels 2.4.18 and earlier on x86 systems allow local
        users to kill arbitrary processes via a binary
        compatibility interface (lcall).
    
      - CAN-2003-0001 :
    
        Multiple ethernet network interface card (NIC) device
        drivers do not pad frames with null bytes, which allows
        remote attackers to obtain information from previous
        packets or kernel memory by using malformed packets, as
        demonstrated by Etherleak.
    
      - CAN-2003-0244 :
    
        The route cache implementation in Linux 2.4, and the
        Netfilter IP conntrack module, allows remote attackers
        to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via
        packets with forged source addresses that cause a large
        number of hash table collisions related to the
        PREROUTING chain.
    
      - CAN-2003-0246 :
    
        The ioperm system call in Linux kernel 2.4.20 and
        earlier does not properly restrict privileges, which
        allows local users to gain read or write access to
        certain I/O ports.
    
      - CAN-2003-0247 :
    
        A vulnerability in the TTY layer of the Linux kernel 2.4
        allows attackers to cause a denial of service ('kernel
        oops').
    
      - CAN-2003-0248 :
    
        The mxcsr code in Linux kernel 2.4 allows attackers to
        modify CPU state registers via a malformed address.
    
      - CAN-2003-0364 :
    
        The TCP/IP fragment reassembly handling in the Linux
        kernel 2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
        service (CPU consumption) via certain packets that cause
        a large number of hash table collisions.
    
      - CAN-2003-0961 :
    
        An integer overflow in brk() system call (do_brk()
        function) for Linux allows a local attacker to gain root
        privileges. Fixed upstream in Linux 2.4.23.
    
      - CAN-2003-0985 :
    
        Paul Starzetz discovered a flaw in bounds checking in
        mremap() in the Linux kernel (present in version 2.4.x
        and 2.6.x) which may allow a local attacker to gain root
        privileges. Version 2.2 is not affected by this bug.
        Fixed upstream in Linux 2.4.24.
    
      - CAN-2004-0077 :
    
        Paul Starzetz and Wojciech Purczynski of isec.pl
        discovered a critical security vulnerability in the
        memory management code of Linux inside the mremap(2)
        system call. Due to missing function return value check
        of internal functions a local attacker can gain root
        privileges. Fixed upstream in Linux 2.4.25 and 2.6.3."

    We recommend that you update your kernel packages.
    
    If you are using the kernel installed by the installation system when
    the 'bf24' option is selected (for a 2.4.x kernel), you should install
    the kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4 package. If you installed a different
    kernel-image package after installation, you should install the
    corresponding 2.4.18-1 kernel. You may use the table below as a guide.

    NOTE: that this kernel is not binary compatible with the previous
    version. For this reason, the kernel has a different version number
    and will not be installed automatically as part of the normal upgrade
    process. Any custom modules will need to be rebuilt in order to work
    with the new kernel. New PCMCIA modules are provided for all of the

    "A number of vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel.
    
      - CVE-2002-0429: The iBCS routines in
        arch/i386/kernel/traps.c for Linux kernels 2.4.18 and
        earlier on x86 systems allow local users to kill
        arbitrary processes via a binary compatibility interface
        (lcall)
      - CAN-2003-0001: Multiple ethernet Network Interface Card
        (NIC) device drivers do not pad frames with null bytes,
        which allows remote attackers to obtain information from
        previous packets or kernel memory by using malformed
        packets
    
      - CAN-2003-0127: The kernel module loader allows local
        users to gain root privileges by using ptrace to attach
        to a child process that is spawned by the kernel
    
      - CAN-2003-0244: The route cache implementation in Linux
        2.4, and the Netfilter IP conntrack module, allows
        remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU
        consumption) via packets with forged source addresses
        that cause a large number of hash table collisions
        related to the PREROUTING chain
    
      - CAN-2003-0246: The ioperm system call in Linux kernel
        2.4.20 and earlier does not properly restrict
        privileges, which allows local users to gain read or
        write access to certain I/O ports.
    
      - CAN-2003-0247: vulnerability in the TTY layer of the
        Linux kernel 2.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of
        service ('kernel oops')
    
      - CAN-2003-0248: The mxcsr code in Linux kernel 2.4 allows
        attackers to modify CPU state registers via a malformed
        address.
    
      - CAN-2003-0364: The TCP/IP fragment reassembly handling
        in the Linux kernel 2.4 allows remote attackers to cause
        a denial of service (CPU consumption) via certain
        packets that cause a large number of hash table
        collisions
    
    This advisory provides corrected source code for Linux 2.4.17, and
    corrected binary kernel images for the mips and mipsel architectures.
