Synopsis:          Moderate: dhcp security update
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2012:1140-01
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL:      https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2012-1140.html
Issue date:        2012-08-03
CVE Names:         CVE-2012-3571 
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

Updated dhcp packages that fix one security issue are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate
security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in
the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64

3. Description:

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that allows
individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration
information, including an IP address, a subnet mask, and a broadcast
address.

A denial of service flaw was found in the way the dhcpd daemon handled
zero-length client identifiers. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
send a specially-crafted request to dhcpd, possibly causing it to enter an
infinite loop and consume an excessive amount of CPU time. (CVE-2012-3571)

Upstream acknowledges Markus Hietava of the Codenomicon CROSS project as
the original reporter of this issue.

Users of DHCP should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch to correct this issue. After installing this update, all
DHCP servers will be restarted automatically.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

842420 - CVE-2012-3571 dhcp: DoS due to error in handling malformed client identifiers

3. Description:

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that allows
individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration

A denial of service flaw was found in the way the dhcpd daemon handled

send a specially-crafted request to dhcpd, possibly causing it to enter an
infinite loop and consume an excessive amount of CPU time. (CVE-2012-3571)

Two memory leak flaws were found in the dhcpd daemon. A remote attacker
could use these flaws to cause dhcpd to exhaust all available memory by
sending a large number of DHCP requests. (CVE-2012-3954)

Upstream acknowledges Markus Hietava of the Codenomicon CROSS project as
the original reporter of CVE-2012-3571, and Glen Eustace of Massey
University, New Zealand, as the original reporter of CVE-2012-3954.

Users of DHCP should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
