Summary: Updated kernel packages that fix several security issues in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 are now available. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - athlon, i386, i686, ia32e, ia64, ppc64, ppc64iseries, ppc64pseries, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - athlon, i386, i686, ia32e, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - athlon, i386, i686, ia32e, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - athlon, i386, i686, ia32e, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system. This advisory includes fixes for several security issues: Petr Vandrovec discovered a flaw in the 32bit emulation code affecting the Linux 2.4 kernel on the AMD64 architecture. A local attacker could use this flaw to gain privileges. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1144 to this issue. ISEC security research discovered multiple vulnerabilities in the IGMP functionality which was backported in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 kernels. These flaws could allow a local user to cause a denial of service (crash) or potentially gain privileges. Where multicast applications are being used on a system, these flaws may also allow remote users to cause a denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1137 to this issue. ISEC security research and Georgi Guninski independantly discovered a flaw in the scm_send function in the auxiliary message layer. A local user could create a carefully crafted auxiliary message which could cause a denial of service (system hang). The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1016 to this issue. A floating point information leak was discovered in the ia64 architecture context switch code. A local user could use this flaw to read register values of other processes by setting the MFH bit. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0565 to this issue. Kirill Korotaev found a flaw in load_elf_binary affecting kernels prior to 2.4.26. A local user could create a carefully crafted binary in such a way that it would cause a denial of service (system crash). The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1234 to this issue. These packages also fix issues in the io_edgeport driver, and a memory leak in ip_options_get. Note: The kernel-unsupported package contains various drivers and modules that are unsupported and therefore might contain security problems that have not been addressed. All Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 users are advised to upgrade their kernels to the packages associated with their machine architectures and configurations as listed in this erratum. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat Update Agent, use the following command: up2date For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the following Web page for the System Administration or Customization guide specific to your system: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/ 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 124734 - CAN-2004-0565 Information leak on Linux/ia64 126126 - CAN-2004-0565 Information leak on Linux/ia64 142593 - CAN-2004-1017 io_edgeport driver overflows 142729 - CAN-2004-1016 CMSG validation checks 142733 - 20041208 ip_options_get memory leak 142748 - CAN-2004-1137 IGMP flaws 142964 - CAN-2004-1144 x86-64 privilege escalation 142965 - CAN-2004-1234 kernel denial of service vulnerability and exploit 6.
