______________________________________________________________________________

1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities

   To avoid flooding mailing lists with SUSE Security Announcements for 
   minor issues, SUSE Security releases weekly summary reports for the low 
   profile vulnerability fixes. The SUSE Security Summary Reports do not 
   list or download URLs like the SUSE Security Announcements that are 
   released for more severe vulnerabilities.

   Fixed packages for the following incidents are already available on our 
   FTP server and via the YaST Online Update.

   - multipath-tools
     Default permissions on the multipathd socket file were to generous
     and allowed any user to connect (CVE-2009-0115).
     Affected products: SLES9, OES, NLD9

   - bluez
     The dbus package used a too permissive configuration. Therefore 
     intended access control for some services was not applied 
    (CVE-2008-4311).
     The new configuration denies access by default. Some dbus services may
     break due to this setting and need an updated configuration as well.
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3

   - xntp
     ntp didn't properly check the return value of the openssl function
     EVP_VerifyFinal (CVE-2009-0021).
     Additionally a problem where ntpd refused to use keys from 
     /etc/ntp.keys
     has been fixed.
     Affected products: SLES10-SP2

   - apache-mod_php4
     Specially crafted strings could trigger a heap based buffer overflow
     in the php mbstring extension. Attackers could potenially exploit
     that to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2008-5557).
     Affected products: SLES9, OES

   - apache2-mod_php5
     php 5.2.9 fixes among other things some security issues:
     + Missing bounds checks of an error in the imageRotate function of
       the gd extension potentially allowed attackers to read portions of
       memory (CVE-2008-5498).
     + the mbstring.func_overload in .htaccess was applied to other virtual
       hosts on th same machine (CVE-2009-0754)
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES10, SLES11

   - struts
     Insufficient quoting of parameters allowed attackers to conduct
     cross site scripting (XSS) attacks (CVE-2008-2025).
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES10, SLES11

   - qemu
     qemu update to version 0.10.1 fixes the following security issues:
     + CVE-2008-0928: problems with range checks of block devices
     + CVE-2008-1945: problems with removable media handling
     + CVE-2008-2382: vnc server DoS
     + CVE-2008-4539: fix a heap overflow in the cirrus VGA implementation
     + CVE-2008-5714: off by one error in vnc password handling
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES10, SLES11

   - libsndfile
     Specially crafted CAF files could cause an integer overflow in
     libsndfile (CVE-2009-0186).
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES10, SLES11

   - phpMyAdmin
     This update of phpMyAdmin fixes multiple vulnerabilities:
     + CVE-2009-1148: directory traversal
     + CVE-2009-1149: CRLF injection
     + CVE-2009-1150: cross-site scripting
     + CVE-2009-1151: static code injection
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.0

3) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information

  - Announcement authenticity verification:

    SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web
    sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is
    guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE
    security announcements are published with a valid signature.

    To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file
    and run the command

      gpg --verify <file>

    replacing <file> with the name of the file containing the announcement.
    The output for a valid signature looks like:

      gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9
      gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security@suse.de>"

    where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed.

    If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can
    import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the
    command

      gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc

  - Package authenticity verification:

    SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over 
    the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to 
    the free and open source software community, the authenticity and 
    integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not 
    been tampered with.

    The internal RPM package signatures provide an easy way to verify the
    authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command

      rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>

    to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the
    filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it
    contains a valid signature from build@suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA.

    This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based
    distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You 
    can also find it on the first installation CD and included at the end of 
    this announcement.

  - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may
    subscribe:

    opensuse-security@opensuse.org
        -   General Linux and SUSE security discussion.
            All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list.
            To subscribe, send an e-mail to
                <opensuse-security+subscribe@opensuse.org>.

    opensuse-security-announce@opensuse.org
        -   SUSE's announce-only mailing list.
            Only SUSE's security announcements are sent to this list.
            To subscribe, send an e-mail to
                <opensuse-security-announce+subscribe@opensuse.org>.
