Subject: [RHSA-2003:098-00] Updated 2.4 kernel fixes vulnerability


---------------------------------------------------------------------
                   Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated 2.4 kernel fixes vulnerability
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2003:098-00
Issue date:        2003-03-17
Updated on:        2003-03-17
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          ptrace
Cross references:  
Obsoletes:         RHSA-2003:025-20 RHBA-2003:069-12
CVE Names:         CAN-2003-0127
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

Updated kernel packages for Red Hat Linux 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, and 8.0 are now
available.  These packages fix a ptrace-related vulnerability that can
lead to elevated (root) privileges.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.1 - athlon, i386, i586, i686
Red Hat Linux 7.2 - athlon, i386, i586, i686
Red Hat Linux 7.3 - athlon, i386, i586, i686
Red Hat Linux 8.0 - athlon, i386, i586, i686

3. Problem description:

The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system.
A vulnerability has been found in version 2.4.18 of the kernel.  This
vulnerability makes it possible for local users to gain elevated (root)
privileges without authorization.  This advisory deals with updates to
Red Hat Linux 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, and 8.0.

All users of Red Hat Linux 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, and 8.0 should upgrade to
these errata packages, which contain patches to fix the vulnerability.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied, especially the additional
packages from RHSA-2002:205 and RHSA-2002:206.

The procedure for upgrading the kernel manually is documented at:

http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/howto/kernel-upgrade/

Please read the directions for your architecture carefully before
proceeding with the kernel upgrade.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this to be an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat
Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system. Note that you need to select the kernel
explicitly on default configurations of up2date.
