    descriptionThe remote host is missing the patch for the advisory SUSE-SA:2005:068 (kernel). The Linux kernel was updated to fix several security problems and several bugs, listed below: Security fixes: - CVE-2005-3783: A check in ptrace(2) handling that finds out if a process is attaching to itself was incorrect and could be used by a local attacker to crash the machine. (All) - CVE-2005-3784: A check in reaping of terminating child processes did not consider ptrace(2) attached processes and would leave a ptrace reference dangling. This could lead to a local user being able to crash the machine. (Linux kernel 2.6 based products only) - CVE-2005-3806: A bug in IPv6 flow label handling code could be used by a local attacker to free non-allocated memory and in turn corrupt kernel memory and likely crash the machine. (All) - CVE-2005-3805: A locking problem in POSIX timer handling could be used by a local attacker on a SMP system to deadlock the machine. (SUSE Linux 9.3) - CVE-2005-3527: A race condition in do_coredump in signal.c allows local users to cause a denial of service (machine hang) by triggering a core dump in one thread while another thread has a pending SIGSTOP. (SUSE Linux 9.3) - CVE-2005-3807: A memory kernel leak in VFS lease handling can exhaust the machine memory and so cause a local denial of service. This is seen in regular Samba use and could also be triggered by local attackers. (SUSE Linux 9.3) - Others: see original advisory

    descriptionA number of vulnerabilities have been corrected in the Linux kernel : A race condition in the 2.6 kernel could allow a local user to cause a DoS by triggering a core dump in one thread while another thread has a pending SIGSTOP (CVE-2005-3527). The ptrace functionality in 2.6 kernels prior to 2.6.14.2, using CLONE_THREAD, does not use the thread group ID to check whether it is attaching to itself, which could allow local users to cause a DoS (CVE-2005-3783). The auto-reap child process in 2.6 kernels prior to 2.6.15 include processes with ptrace attached, which leads to a dangling ptrace reference and allows local users to cause a crash (CVE-2005-3784). A locking problem in the POSIX timer cleanup handling on exit on kernels 2.6.10 to 2.6.14 when running on SMP systems, allows a local user to cause a deadlock involving process CPU timers (CVE-2005-3805). The IPv6 flowlabel handling code in 2.4 and 2.6 kernels prior to 2.4.32 and 2.6.14 modifes the wrong variable in certain circumstances, which allows local users to corrupt kernel memory or cause a crash by triggering a free of non-allocated memory (CVE-2005-3806). An integer overflow in 2.6.14 and earlier could allow a local user to cause a hang via 64-bit mmap calls that are not properly handled on a 32-bit system (CVE-2005-3808). As well, other bugfixes are included in this update : Fixes to swsup and HDA sound fixes (DMA buffer fixes, and fixes for the AD1986a codec, added support for Nvidia chipsets, and new model information for the Gigabyte K8N51). MCP51 forcedeth support has been added.

    descriptionThe remote host is missing the patch for the advisory SUSE-SA:2005:067 (kernel). This kernel update for SUSE Linux 10.0 contains fixes for XEN, various security fixes and bug fixes. This update includes a more recent snapshot of the upcoming XEN 3.0. Many bugs have been fixed. Stability for x86_64 has been improved. Stability has been improved for SMP, and now both i586 and x86_64 kernels are built with SMP support. It also contains several security fixes : - CVE-2005-3783: A check in ptrace(2) handling that finds out if a process is attaching to itself was incorrect and could be used by a local attacker to crash the machine. - CVE-2005-3784: A check in reaping of terminating child processes did not consider ptrace(2) attached processes and would leave a ptrace reference dangling. This could lead to a local user being able to crash the machine. - CVE-2005-3271: A task leak problem when releasing POSIX timers was fixed. This could lead to local users causing a local denial of service by exhausting system memory. - CVE-2005-3805: A locking problem in POSIX timer handling could be used by a local attacker on a SMP system to deadlock the machine. - CVE-2005-3181: A problem in the Linux auditing code could lead to a memory leak which finally could exhaust system memory of a machine. - CVE-2005-2973: An infinite loop in the IPv6 UDP loopback handling can be easily triggered by a local user and lead to a denial of service. - CVE-2005-3806: A bug in IPv6 flow label handling code could be used by a local attacker to free non-allocated memory and in turn corrupt kernel memory and likely crash the machine. - CVE-2005-3807: A memory kernel leak in VFS lease handling can exhaust the machine memory and so cause a local denial of service. This is seen in regular Samba use and could also be triggered by local attackers. - CVE-2005-3055: Unplugging an user space controlled USB device with an URB pending in user space could crash the kernel. This can be easily triggered by local attacker. - CVE-2005-3180: Fixed incorrect padding in Orinoco wireless driver, which could expose kernel data to the air. - CVE-2005-3044: Missing sockfd_put() calls in routing_ioctl() leaked file handles which in turn could exhaust system memory. - CVE-2005-3527: A race condition in do_coredump in signal.c allows local users to cause a denial of service (machine hang) by triggering a core dump in one thread while another thread has a pending SIGSTOP.
