    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

    descriptionUpdated kernel packages that fix three security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. 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. Security fixes : * a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel NFSv4 implementation. Several of the NFSv4 file locking functions failed to check whether a file had been opened on the server before performing locking operations on it. A local, unprivileged user on a system with an NFSv4 share mounted could possibly use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2009-3726, 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 race condition between finding a keyring by name and destroying a freed keyring was found in the Linux kernel key management facility. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-1437, Important) Red Hat would like to thank Simon Vallet for responsibly reporting CVE-2009-3726; and Jukka Taimisto and Olli Jarva of Codenomicon Ltd, Nokia Siemens Networks, and Wind River on behalf of their customer, for responsibly reporting CVE-2010-1173. Bug fixes : * RHBA-2007:0791 introduced a regression in the Journaling Block Device (JBD). Under certain circumstances, removing a large file (such as 300 MB or more) did not result in inactive memory being freed, leading to the system having a large amount of inactive memory. Now, the memory is correctly freed.

    cases where a file type changed, such as if a file was removed and
    replaced with a directory of the same name, the NFSv3 client may not
    have noticed this change until stat(2) was called (for example, by
    running 'ls -l'). (BZ#596372)
    
    * RHBA-2007:0791 introduced bugs in the Linux kernel PCI-X subsystem.
    These could have caused a system deadlock on some systems where the
    BIOS set the default Maximum Memory Read Byte Count (MMRBC) to 4096,
    and that also use the Intel PRO/1000 Linux driver, e1000. Errors such
    as 'e1000: eth[x]: e1000_clean_tx_irq: Detected Tx Unit Hang' were
    logged. (BZ#596374)
    
    * an out of memory condition in a KVM guest, using the virtio-net
    network driver and also under heavy network stress, could have
    resulted in that guest being unable to receive network traffic. Users
    had to manually remove and re-add the virtio_net module and restart
    the network service before networking worked as expected. Such memory
    conditions no longer prevent KVM guests receiving network traffic.
    (BZ#597310)
    
    * when an SFQ qdisc that limited the queue size to two packets was
    added to a network interface, sending traffic through that interface
    resulted in a kernel crash. Such a qdisc no longer results in a kernel
    crash. (BZ#597312)
    
    * when an NFS client opened a file with the O_TRUNC flag set, it
    received a valid stateid, but did not use that stateid to perform the
    SETATTR call. Such cases were rejected by Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
    NFS servers with an 'NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID' error, possibly preventing
    some NFS clients from writing files to an NFS file system. (BZ#597314)

    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

    is mounted with the 'quota=on' or 'quota=account' mount option.
    (CVE-2010-1436, Important)
    
    * a race condition between finding a keyring by name and destroying a
    freed keyring was found in the Linux kernel key management facility. A
    local user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of
    service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-1437, Important)
    
    * a flaw was found in the link_path_walk() function in the Linux
    kernel. Using the file descriptor returned by the open() function with
    the O_NOFOLLOW flag on a subordinate NFS-mounted file system, could
    result in a NULL pointer dereference, causing a denial of service or
    privilege escalation. (CVE-2010-1088, Moderate)
    
    * a missing permission check was found in the gfs2_set_flags()
    function in the Linux kernel GFS2 implementation. A local user could
    use this flaw to change certain file attributes of files, on a GFS2
    file system, that they do not own. (CVE-2010-1641, Low)

    descriptionFrom Red Hat Security Advisory 2010:0504 : Updated 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

    is mounted with the 'quota=on' or 'quota=account' mount option.
    (CVE-2010-1436, Important)
    
    * a race condition between finding a keyring by name and destroying a
    freed keyring was found in the Linux kernel key management facility. A
    local user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of
    service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-1437, Important)
    
    * a flaw was found in the link_path_walk() function in the Linux
    kernel. Using the file descriptor returned by the open() function with
    the O_NOFOLLOW flag on a subordinate NFS-mounted file system, could
    result in a NULL pointer dereference, causing a denial of service or
    privilege escalation. (CVE-2010-1088, Moderate)
    
    * a missing permission check was found in the gfs2_set_flags()
    function in the Linux kernel GFS2 implementation. A local user could
    use this flaw to change certain file attributes of files, on a GFS2
    file system, that they do not own. (CVE-2010-1641, Low)

    descriptionUpdated kernel packages that fix three security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. 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. Security fixes : * a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel NFSv4 implementation. Several of the NFSv4 file locking functions failed to check whether a file had been opened on the server before performing locking operations on it. A local, unprivileged user on a system with an NFSv4 share mounted could possibly use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2009-3726, 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 race condition between finding a keyring by name and destroying a freed keyring was found in the Linux kernel key management facility. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-1437, Important) Red Hat would like to thank Simon Vallet for responsibly reporting CVE-2009-3726; and Jukka Taimisto and Olli Jarva of Codenomicon Ltd, Nokia Siemens Networks, and Wind River on behalf of their customer, for responsibly reporting CVE-2010-1173. Bug fixes : * RHBA-2007:0791 introduced a regression in the Journaling Block Device (JBD). Under certain circumstances, removing a large file (such as 300 MB or more) did not result in inactive memory being freed, leading to the system having a large amount of inactive memory. Now, the memory is correctly freed.

(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. (CVE-2010-1437) - arch/1/mm/fsl_booke_mmu.c in KGDB in the Linux kernel, when running on PowerPC, does not properly perform a security check for access to a kernel page, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary kernel memory.

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.

CVE-2010-1437: Race condition in the find_keyring_by_name function in security/keys/keyring.c in 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. CVE-2010-1446: arch/powerpc/mm/fsl_booke_mmu.c in KGDB in the Linux kernel, when running on PowerPC, does not properly perform a security check for access to a kernel page, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary kernel memory, related to Fsl booke. CVE-2010-1162: The release_one_tty function in drivers/char/tty_io.c in the Linux kernel omits certain required calls to the put_pid function, which has unspecified impact and local attack vectors. CVE-2009-4537: drivers/net/r8169.c in the r8169 driver in the Linux kernel does not properly check the size of an Ethernet frame that exceeds the MTU, which allows remote attackers to (1) cause a denial of service (temporary network outage) via a packet with a crafted size, in conjunction with certain packets containing A characters and certain packets containing E characters; or (2) cause a denial of service (system crash) via a packet with a crafted size, in conjunction with certain packets containing

    NASL idSL_20100615_KERNEL_ON_SL4_X.NASL
    descriptionSecurity fixes : - a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel NFSv4 implementation. Several of the NFSv4 file locking functions failed to check whether a file had been opened on the server before performing locking operations on it. A local, unprivileged user on a system with an NFSv4 share mounted could possibly use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2009-3726, 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 race condition between finding a keyring by name and destroying a freed keyring was found in the Linux kernel key management facility. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic (denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-1437, Important) Red Hat would like to thank Simon Vallet for responsibly reporting CVE-2009-3726; and Jukka Taimisto and Olli Jarva of Codenomicon Ltd, Nokia Siemens Networks, and Wind River on behalf of their customer, for responsibly reporting CVE-2010-1173. Bug fixes : - RHBA-2007:0791 introduced a regression in the Journaling Block Device (JBD). Under certain circumstances, removing a large file (such as 300 MB or more) did not result in inactive memory being freed, leading to the system having a large amount of inactive memory. Now, the memory is correctly freed. (BZ#589155) - the timer_interrupt() routine did not scale lost real ticks to logical ticks correctly, possibly causing time drift for 64-bit Scientific Linux 4 KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) guests that were booted with the

  • NASL familySuSE Local Security Checks
    NASL idSUSE_11_2_KERNEL-100921.NASL
    descriptionThis openSUSE 11.2 kernel was updated to 2.6.31.14, fixing several security issues and bugs. A lot of ext4 filesystem stability fixes were also added. Following security issues have been fixed: CVE-2010-3301: Mismatch between 32bit and 64bit register usage in the system call entry path could be used by local attackers to gain root privileges. This problem only affects x86_64 kernels. CVE-2010-3081: Incorrect buffer handling in the biarch-compat buffer handling could be used by local attackers to gain root privileges. This problem affects foremost x86_64, or potentially other biarch platforms, like PowerPC and S390x. CVE-2010-3084: A buffer overflow in the ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL code could be used to crash the kernel or potentially execute code. CVE-2010-2955: A kernel information leak via the WEXT ioctl was fixed. CVE-2010-2960: The keyctl_session_to_parent function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux kernel expects that a certain parent session keyring exists, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT argument to the keyctl function. CVE-2010-3080: A double free in an alsa error path was fixed, which could lead to kernel crashes. CVE-2010-3079: Fixed a ftrace NULL pointer dereference problem which could lead to kernel crashes. CVE-2010-3298: Fixed a kernel information leak in the net/usb/hso driver. CVE-2010-3296: Fixed a kernel information leak in the cxgb3 driver. CVE-2010-3297: Fixed a kernel information leak in the net/eql driver. CVE-2010-3078: Fixed a kernel information leak in the xfs filesystem. CVE-2010-2942: Fixed a kernel information leak in the net scheduler code. CVE-2010-2954: The irda_bind function in net/irda/af_irda.c in the Linux kernel did not properly handle failure of the irda_open_tsap function, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) and possibly have unspecified other impact via multiple unsuccessful calls to bind on an AF_IRDA (aka PF_IRDA) socket. CVE-2010-2226: The xfs_swapext function in fs/xfs/xfs_dfrag.c in the Linux kernel did not properly check the file descriptors passed to the SWAPEXT ioctl, which allowed local users to leverage write access and obtain read access by swapping one file into another file.
