    descriptionThis update fixes the following security issues : - multiple flaws were found in the mmap and mremap implementations. A local user could use these flaws to cause a local denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-0291, Important) - a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Fast Userspace Mutexes (futexes) implementation. The unlock code path did not check if the futex value associated with pi_state->owner had been modified. A local user could use this flaw to modify the futex value, possibly leading to a denial of service or privilege escalation when the pi_state->owner pointer is dereferenced. (CVE-2010-0622, Important) - a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel Network File System (NFS) implementation. A local user on a system that has an NFS-mounted file system could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges on that system. (CVE-2010-1087, Important) - a flaw was found in the sctp_process_unk_param() function in the Linux kernel Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted SCTP packet to an SCTP listening port on a target system, causing a kernel panic (denial of service). (CVE-2010-1173, Important) - a flaw was found in the Linux kernel Transparent Inter-Process Communication protocol (TIPC) implementation. If a client application, on a local system where the tipc module is not yet in network mode, attempted to send a message to a remote TIPC node, it would dereference a NULL pointer on the local system, causing a kernel panic (denial of service). (CVE-2010-1187, Important) - a buffer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel Global File System 2 (GFS2) implementation. In certain cases, a quota could be written past the end of a memory page, causing memory corruption, leaving the quota stored on disk in an invalid state. A user with write access to a GFS2 file system could trigger this flaw to cause a kernel crash (denial of service) or escalate their privileges on the GFS2 server. This issue can only be triggered if the GFS2 file system is mounted with the

    descriptionUSN-947-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. Fixes for CVE-2010-0419 caused failures when using KVM in certain situations. This update reverts that fix until a better solution can be found. We apologize for the inconvenience. It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not correctly handle memory protection of the Virtual Dynamic Shared Object page when running a 32-bit application on a 64-bit kernel. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. (Only affected Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.) (CVE-2009-4271) It was discovered that the r8169 network driver did not correctly check the size of Ethernet frames. A remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2009-4537) Wei Yongjun discovered that SCTP did not correctly validate certain chunks. A remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic to monopolize CPU resources, leading to a denial of service. (Only affected Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.) (CVE-2010-0008) It was discovered that KVM did not correctly limit certain privileged IO accesses on x86. Processes in the guest OS with access to IO regions could gain further privileges within the guest OS. (Did not affect Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.) (CVE-2010-0298, CVE-2010-0306, CVE-2010-0419) Evgeniy Polyakov discovered that IPv6 did not correctly handle certain TUN packets. A remote attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (Only affected Ubuntu 8.04 LTS.) (CVE-2010-0437) Sachin Prabhu discovered that GFS2 did not correctly handle certain locks. A local attacker with write access to a GFS2 filesystem could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-0727) Jamie Strandboge discovered that network virtio in KVM did not correctly handle certain high-traffic conditions. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending specially crafted traffic to a guest OS, causing the guest to crash, leading to a denial of service. (Only affected Ubuntu 8.04 LTS.) (CVE-2010-0741) Marcus Meissner discovered that the USB subsystem did not correctly handle certain error conditions.

(CVE-2010-1088) Matt McCutchen discovered that ReiserFS did not correctly protect xattr files in the .reiserfs_priv directory. A local attacker could exploit this to gain root privileges or crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-1146) Eugene Teo discovered that CIFS did not correctly validate arguments when creating new files. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service, or possibly gain root privileges if mmap_min_addr was not set. (CVE-2010-1148) Catalin Marinas and Tetsuo Handa discovered that the TTY layer did not correctly release process IDs. A local attacker could exploit this to consume kernel resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-1162) Neil Horman discovered that TIPC did not correctly check its internal state. A local attacker could send specially crafted packets via AF_TIPC that would cause the system to crash, leading to a denial of service. (Ubuntu 6.06 LTS was not affected.) (CVE-2010-1187) Masayuki Nakagawa discovered that IPv6 did not correctly handle certain settings when listening. If a socket were listening with the IPV6_RECVPKTINFO flag, a remote attacker could send specially crafted traffic that would cause the system to crash, leading to a denial of service. (Only Ubuntu 6.06 LTS was affected.) (CVE-2010-1188) Oleg Nesterov discovered that the Out-Of-Memory handler did not correctly handle certain arrangements of processes. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-1488). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    NASL idSUSE_11_KERNEL-100709.NASL
    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 kernel was updated to 2.6.27.48, fixing various bugs and security issues : - The do_gfs2_set_flags() function in fs/gfs2/file.c of the Linux kernel does not verify the ownership of a file, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via a SETFLAGS ioctl request. (CVE-2010-1641) - The nfs_wait_on_request() function in fs/nfs/pagelist.c of the Linux kernel allows attackers to cause a denial of service (Oops) via unknown vectors related to truncating a file and an operation that is not interruptible. (CVE-2010-1087) - When strict overcommit is enabled, mm/shmem.c does not properly handle the export of shmemfs objects by knfsd, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and knfsd crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors. (CVE-2010-1643) - A race condition in the find_keyring_by_name() function in security/keys/keyring.c of the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via keyctl session commands that trigger access to a dead keyring that is undergoing deletion by the key_cleanup() function.

    descriptionUpdated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. This update fixes the following security issues : * multiple flaws were found in the mmap and mremap implementations. A local user could use these flaws to cause a local denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-0291, Important) * a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Fast Userspace Mutexes (futexes) implementation. The unlock code path did not check if the futex value associated with pi_state->owner had been modified. A local user could use this flaw to modify the futex value, possibly leading to a denial of service or privilege escalation when the pi_state->owner pointer is dereferenced. (CVE-2010-0622, Important) * a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel Network File System (NFS) implementation. A local user on a system that has an NFS-mounted file system could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges on that system. (CVE-2010-1087, Important) * a flaw was found in the sctp_process_unk_param() function in the Linux kernel Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted SCTP packet to an SCTP listening port on a target system, causing a kernel panic (denial of service). (CVE-2010-1173, Important) * a flaw was found in the Linux kernel Transparent Inter-Process Communication protocol (TIPC) implementation. If a client application, on a local system where the tipc module is not yet in network mode, attempted to send a message to a remote TIPC node, it would dereference a NULL pointer on the local system, causing a kernel panic (denial of service). (CVE-2010-1187, Important) * a buffer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel Global File System 2 (GFS2) implementation. In certain cases, a quota could be written past the end of a memory page, causing memory corruption, leaving the quota stored on disk in an invalid state. A user with write access to a GFS2 file system could trigger this flaw to cause a kernel crash (denial of service) or escalate their privileges on the GFS2 server. This issue can only be triggered if the GFS2 file system is mounted with the
