 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2011:178
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : glibc
 Date    : November 25, 2011
 Affected: 2010.1, Enterprise Server 5.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 Multiple vulnerabilities was discovered and fixed in glibc:
 
 Multiple untrusted search path vulnerabilities in elf/dl-object.c in
 certain modified versions of the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6),
 including glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.6 and glibc-2.12-1.7.el6_0.3 in Red Hat
 Enterprise Linux, allow local users to gain privileges via a crafted
 dynamic shared object (DSO) in a subdirectory of the current working
 directory during execution of a (1) setuid or (2) setgid program that
 has  in (a) RPATH or (b) RUNPATH.  NOTE: this issue exists because
 of an incorrect fix for CVE-2010-3847 (CVE-2011-0536).
 
 The GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.12.2 and Embedded GLIBC
 (EGLIBC) allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code
 or cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a long UTF8
 string that is used in an fnmatch call, aka a stack extension attack,
 a related issue to CVE-2010-2898, as originally reported for use of
 this library by Google Chrome (CVE-2011-1071).
 
 The addmntent function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.13
 and earlier does not report an error status for failed attempts to
 write to the /etc/mtab file, which makes it easier for local users
 to trigger corruption of this file, as demonstrated by writes from
 a process with a small RLIMIT_FSIZE value, a different vulnerability
 than CVE-2010-0296 (CVE-2011-1089).
 
 locale/programs/locale.c in locale in the GNU C Library (aka glibc
 or libc6) before 2.13 does not quote its output, which might allow
 local users to gain privileges via a crafted localization environment
 variable, in conjunction with a program that executes a script that
 uses the eval function (CVE-2011-1095).
 
 Integer overflow in posix/fnmatch.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or
 libc6) 2.13 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a
 denial of service (application crash) via a long UTF8 string that is
 used in an fnmatch call with a crafted pattern argument, a different
 vulnerability than CVE-2011-1071 (CVE-2011-1659).
 
 crypt_blowfish before 1.1, as used in glibc on certain platforms,
 does not properly handle 8-bit characters, which makes it easier
 for context-dependent attackers to determine a cleartext password by
 leveraging knowledge of a password hash (CVE-2011-2483).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
