For reference, please see the text of the original advisory. Several security related problems have been discovered in the Linux kernel which may lead to a denial of service or even the execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : - CVE-2004-2660 Toshihiro Iwamoto discovered a memory leak in the handling of direct I/O writes that allows local users to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2005-4798 A buffer overflow in NFS readlink handling allows a malicious remote server to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2006-1052 Stephen Smalley discovered a bug in the SELinux ptrace handling that allows local users with ptrace permissions to change the tracer SID to the SID of another process. - CVE-2006-1343 Pavel Kankovsky discovered an information leak in the getsockopt system call which can be exploited by a local program to leak potentially sensitive memory to userspace. - CVE-2006-1528 Douglas Gilbert reported a bug in the sg driver that allows local users to cause a denial of service by performing direct I/O transfers from the sg driver to memory mapped I/O space. - CVE-2006-1855 Mattia Belletti noticed that certain debugging code left in the process management code could be exploited by a local attacker to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2006-1856 Kostik Belousov discovered a missing LSM file_permission check in the readv and writev functions which might allow attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. - CVE-2006-2444 Patrick McHardy discovered a bug in the SNMP NAT helper that allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2006-2446 A race condition in the socket buffer handling allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2006-2935 Diego Calleja Garcia discovered a buffer overflow in the DVD handling code that could be exploited by a specially crafted DVD USB storage device to execute arbitrary code. - CVE-2006-2936 A bug in the serial USB driver has been discovered that could be exploited by a custom made USB serial adapter to consume arbitrary amounts of memory. - CVE-2006-3468 James McKenzie discovered a denial of service vulnerability in the NFS driver. When exporting an ext3 file system over NFS, a remote attacker could exploit this to trigger a file system panic by sending a specially crafted UDP packet. - CVE-2006-3745 Wei Wang discovered a bug in the SCTP implementation that allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly gain root privileges. - CVE-2006-4093 Olof Johansson discovered that the kernel does not disable the HID0 bit on PowerPC 970 processors which could be exploited by a local attacker to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2006-4145 A bug in the Universal Disk Format (UDF) filesystem driver could be exploited by a local user to cause a denial of service. - CVE-2006-4535 David Miller reported a problem with the fix for CVE-2006-3745 that allows local users to crash the system via an SCTP socket with a certain SO_LINGER value.

The selinux_ptrace logic hooks in SELinux for 2.6.6 allow local users with ptrace permissions to change the tracer SID to an SID of another process (CVE-2006-1052). Prior to 2.6.16, the ip_push_pending_frames function increments the IP ID field when sending a RST after receiving unsolicited TCP SYN-ACK packets, which allows a remote attacker to conduct an idle scan attack, bypassing any intended protection against such an attack (CVE-2006-1242). In kernel 2.6.16.1 and some earlier versions, the sys_add_key function in the keyring code allows local users to cause a DoS (OOPS) via keyctl requests that add a key to a user key instead of a keyring key, causing an invalid dereference (CVE-2006-1522). Prior to 2.6.16.8, the ip_route_input function allows local users to cause a DoS (panic) via a request for a route for a multicast IP address, which triggers a null dereference (CVE-2006-1525). Prior to 2.6.16.13, the SCTP-netfilter code allows remote attackers to cause a DoS (infinite loop) via unknown vectors that cause an invalid SCTP chunk size to be processed (CVE-2006-1527). Prior to 2.6.16, local users can bypass IPC permissions and modify a read-only attachment of shared memory by using mprotect to give write permission to the attachment (CVE-2006-2071). Prior to 2.6.17, the ECNE chunk handling in SCTP (lksctp) allows remote attackers to cause a DoS (kernel panic) via an unexpected chucnk when the session is in CLOSED state (CVE-2006-2271). Prior to 2.6.17, SCTP (lksctp) allows remote attacker to cause a DoS (kernel panic) via incoming IP fragmented COOKIE_ECHO and HEARTBEAT SCTP control chunks (CVE-2006-2272). In addition to these security fixes, other fixes have been included such as : - fix a scheduler deadlock - Yenta oops fix - ftdi_sio: adds support for iPlus devices - enable kprobes on i386 and x86_64 - avoid a panic on bind mount of autofs owned directory - fix a kernel OOPs when booting with last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 21575 published 2006-05-19 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2006-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/21575 title Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : kernel (MDKSA-2006:086)
