-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:047 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : kernel Date : February 21, 2007 Affected: 2007.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel: A double free vulnerability in the squashfs module could allow a local user to cause a Denial of Service by mounting a crafted squashfs filesystem (CVE-2006-5701). The zlib_inflate function allows local users to cause a crash via a malformed filesystem that uses zlib compression that triggers memory corruption (CVE-2006-5823). The key serial number collision avoidance code in the key_alloc_serial function in kernels 2.6.9 up to 2.6.20 allows local users to cause a crash via vectors thatr trigger a null dereference (CVE-2007-0006). The provided packages are patched to fix these vulnerabilities. All users are encouraged to upgrade to these updated kernels immediately and reboot to effect the fixes. In addition to these security fixes, other fixes have been included such as: - New drivers: nozomi, UVC - Fixed SiS SATA support for chips on 966/968 bridges - Fixed issues in squashfs by updating to 3.2 (#27008) - Added support for SiS968 bridgest to the sis190 bridge - Fixed JMicron cable detection - Added /proc/config.gz support and enabled kexec on x86_64 - Other minor fixes To update your kernel, please follow the directions located at: http://www.mandriva.com/en/security/kernelupdate _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-5701 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-5823 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0006 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2007.0: 07df9cceca48092bca1fd65cadf91e69 2007.0/i586/kernel-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm a1dbf1afa75579198166a3f4a74f45d5 2007.0/i586/kernel-doc-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm da3d2669e324068dd7563a29356a6221 2007.0/i586/kernel-enterprise-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm 1e1508188ec35415a880978c3c90c7ce 2007.0/i586/kernel-legacy-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm 2d0f1e67c091bd9c62cb4f63b9ef7356 2007.0/i586/kernel-source-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm d76607bf4889d5a6d0a3633a84475684 2007.0/i586/kernel-source-stripped-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm d6d3e09457c438b71cb03d3622867019 2007.0/i586/kernel-xen0-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm 241b7b83709ec8811fb8b2969ae5bfda 2007.0/i586/kernel-xenU-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm b971ee2fe8d6ddc83765cb2705671e35 2007.0/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2007.0/X86_64: 7293720ba20f54c1522263b0d1e58577 2007.0/x86_64/kernel-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm 7a32b034b1452b1d102fed6fca411aa2 2007.0/x86_64/kernel-doc-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm db02f60611db9824215440969b52d2ac 2007.0/x86_64/kernel-source-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm 4751c8e5fb383bf08f29f172bc1c11f2 2007.0/x86_64/kernel-source-stripped-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm e467c45bdab2bfc663b0b0a0ab135d84 2007.0/x86_64/kernel-xen0-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm 9c00e25c5f5ea6be9d96c4a2139836a6 2007.0/x86_64/kernel-xenU-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm b971ee2fe8d6ddc83765cb2705671e35 2007.0/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.17.11mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
