Message-id: <E1JDRrD-0006Se-3f@artemis.annvix.ca> Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2008 14:56:07 -0700 From: security@...driva.com To: full-disclosure@...ts.grok.org.uk Subject: [ MDVSA-2008:008 ] - Updated kernel packages fix multiple vulnerabilities and bugs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:008 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : kernel Date : January 11, 2008 Affected: Corporate 4.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel: The CIFS filesystem, when Unix extension support is enabled, does not honor the umask of a process, which allows local users to gain privileges. (CVE-2007-3740) The (1) hugetlb_vmtruncate_list and (2) hugetlb_vmtruncate functions in fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19-rc4 perform certain prio_tree calculations using HPAGE_SIZE instead of PAGE_SIZE units, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2007-4133) The IA32 system call emulation functionality in Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x before 2.6.22.7, when running on the x86_64 architecture, does not zero extend the eax register after the 32bit entry path to ptrace is used, which might allow local users to gain privileges by triggering an out-of-bounds access to the system call table using the %RAX register. (CVE-2007-4573) Integer underflow in the ieee80211_rx function in net/ieee80211/ieee80211_rx.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted SKB length value in a runt IEEE 802.11 frame when the IEEE80211_STYPE_QOS_DATA flag is set, aka an off-by-two error. (CVE-2007-4997) The disconnect method in the Philips USB Webcam (pwc) driver in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.22.6 relies on user space to close the device, which allows user-assisted local attackers to cause a denial of service (USB subsystem hang and CPU consumption in khubd) by not closing the device after the disconnect is invoked. NOTE: this rarely crosses privilege boundaries, unless the attacker can convince the victim to unplug the affected device. (CVE-2007-5093) The wait_task_stopped function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23.8 checks a TASK_TRACED bit instead of an exit_state value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (machine crash) via unspecified vectors. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. (CVE-2007-5500) The minix filesystem code in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.18, and possibly other versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via a malformed minix file stream that triggers an infinite loop in the minix_bmap function. NOTE: this issue might be due to an integer overflow or signedness error. (CVE-2006-6058) Buffer overflow in the isdn_net_setcfg function in isdn_net.c in Linux kernel 2.6.23 allows local users to have an unknown impact via a crafted argument to the isdn_ioctl function. (CVE-2007-6063) Additionaly, support for Promise 4350 controller was added (stex module).
