Summary

net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6, and possibly net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv4.c in 2.6, does not clear sockaddr_in.sin_zero before returning IPv4 socket names from the getsockopt function with SO_ORIGINAL_DST, which allows local users to obtain portions of potentially sensitive memory.

    This security advisory has been rated as having important security
    impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
    
    The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system.
    
    These new kernel packages contain fixes for the security issues
    described below :
    
    * a flaw in the USB devio handling of device removal that allowed a
    local user to cause a denial of service (crash) (CVE-2005-3055,
    moderate)
    
    * a flaw in ROSE due to missing verification of the ndigis argument of
    new routes (CVE-2005-3273, moderate)
    
    * an info leak on AMD-based x86 systems that allowed a local user to
    retrieve the floating point exception state of a process run by a
    different user (CVE-2006-1056, important)
    
    * a minor info leak in socket name handling in the network code
    (CVE-2006-1342, low)
    
    * a minor info leak in socket option handling in the network code
    (CVE-2006-1343, low)
    
    * a directory traversal vulnerability in smbfs that allowed a local
    user to escape chroot restrictions for an SMB-mounted filesystem via
    '..\\' sequences (CVE-2006-1864, moderate)
    
    * a flaw in the mprotect system call that allowed to give write
    permission to a readonly attachment of shared memory (CVE-2006-2071,
    moderate)
    
    A performance bug in the NFS implementation that caused clients to
    frequently pause when sending TCP segments during heavy write loads
    was also addressed.
    
    All Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 users are advised to upgrade their
    kernels to these updated packages, which contain backported fixes to
    correct these issues."

    descriptionThis advisory covers the S/390 components of the recent security update for the Linux 2.6.8 kernel that were missing due to technical problems. 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 following matrix explains which kernel version for which architecture fixes the problem mentioned above : stable (sarge) Source 2.6.8-16sarge5 Alpha architecture 2.6.8-16sarge5 AMD64 architecture 2.6.8-16sarge5 HP Precision architecture 2.6.8-6sarge5 Intel IA-32 architecture 2.6.8-16sarge5 Intel IA-64 architecture 2.6.8-14sarge5 Motorola 680x0 architecture 2.6.8-4sarge5 PowerPC architecture 2.6.8-12sarge5 IBM S/390 2.6.8-5sarge5 Sun Sparc architecture 2.6.8-15sarge5 FAI 1.9.1sarge4

  • NASL familyMandriva Local Security Checks
    NASL idMANDRAKE_MDKSA-2006-123.NASL
    descriptionA number of vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel : The kernel did not clear sockaddr_in.sin_zero before returning IPv4 socket names for the getsockopt function, which could allow a local user to obtain portions of potentially sensitive memory if getsockopt() is called with SO_ORIGINAL_DST (CVE-2006-1343). Prior to 2.6.16, a buffer overflow in the USB Gadget RNDIS implementation could allow a remote attacker to cause a Denial of Service via a remote NDIS response (CVE-2006-1368). Prior to 2.6.13, local users could cause a Denial of Service (crash) via a dio transfer from the sg driver to memory mapped IO space (CVE-2006-1528). Prior to and including 2.6.16, the kernel did not add the appropriate LSM file_permission hooks to the readv and writev functions, which could allow an attacker to bypass intended access restrictions (CVE-2006-1856). Prior to 2.6.16.17, a buffer oveflow in SCTP could allow a remote attacker to cause a DoS (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed HB-ACK chunk (CVE-2006-1857). Prior to 2.6.16.17, SCTP could allow a remote attacker to cause a DoS (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a chunk length that is inconsistent with the actual length of provided parameters (CVE-2006-1858). Prior to 2.6.16.16, a memory leak in fs/locks.c could allow an attacker to cause a DoS (memory consumption) via unspecified actions (CVE-2006-1859). Prior to 2.6.16.16, lease_init in fs/locks.c could allow an attacker to cause a DoS (fcntl_setlease lockup) via certain actions (CVE-2006-1860). Prior to 2.6.17, SCTP allowed remote attackers to cause a DoS (infinite recursion and crash) via a packet that contains two or more DATA fragments (CVE-2006-2274). Prior to 2.6.16.21, a race condition in run_posix_cpu timers could allow a local user to cause a DoS (BUG_ON crash) by causing one CPU to attach a timer to a process that is exiting (CVE-2006-2445). Prior to 2.6.17.1, xt_sctp in netfilter could allow an attacker to cause a DoS (infinite loop) via an SCTP chunk with a 0 length (CVE-2006-3085). As well, an issue where IPC could hit an unmapped vmalloc page when near the page boundary has been corrected. In addition to these security fixes, other fixes have been included such as : - avoid automatic update of kernel-source without updating the kernel - fix USB EHCI handoff code, which made some machines hang while booting - disable USB_BANDWIDTH which corrects a known problem in some USB sound devices - fix a bluetooth refcounting bug which could hang the machine - fix a NULL pointer dereference in USB-Serial
