Issue date: 2005-12-06
Updated on: 2005-12-06
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
CVE Names: CVE-2005-2933


1. Summary:

Updated libc-client packages that fix a buffer overflow issue
are now available.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by
the Red Hat Security Response Team.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 – i386, ia64, ppc, s390,

3. Problem description:

C-client is a common API for accessing mailboxes.

A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the way C-client parses
user supplied mailboxes. If an authenticated user requests a
specially crafted mailbox name, it may be possible to execute
arbitrary code on a server that uses C-client to access mailboxes.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the
name CVE-2005-2933 to this issue.

All users of libc-client should upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain a backported patch that resolves this
issue.

4. Solution:

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

This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat
Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following
command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.

An updated imap package that fixes a buffer overflow issue is
now available.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by
the Red Hat Security Response Team.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 –
i386, ia64
Red Hat Linux Advanced Workstation 2.1 – ia64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 – i386
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 – i386, ia64, ppc, s390,

3. Problem description:

The imap package provides server daemons for both the IMAP
(Internet Message Access Protocol) and POP (Post Office Protocol)
mail access protocols.

A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the way the c-client
library parses user supplied mailboxes. If an authenticated user
requests a specially crafted mailbox name, it may be possible to
execute arbitrary code on a server that uses the library. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name
CVE-2005-2933 to this issue.

All users of imap should upgrade to these updated packages,
which contain a backported patch and are not vulnerable to this
issue.

4. Solution:

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

This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat
Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following
command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.

1) Problem Description and Brief Discussion

This kernel update for SUSE Linux 10.0 contains fixes for XEN,
various security fixes and bug fixes.

CVE-200n-nnnn numbers refer to Mitre CVE IDs (http://cve.mitre.org/).

This update includes a more recent snapshot of the upcoming XEN
3.0. Many bugs have been fixed. Stability for x86_64 has been
improved. Stability has been improved for SMP, and now both i586
and x86_64 kernels are built with SMP support.

This update contains the following security fixes:

  • CVE-2005-3783: A check in ptrace(2) handling that finds out if
    a process is attaching to itself was incorrect and could be used by
    a local attacker to crash the machine.
  • CVE-2005-3784: A check in reaping of terminating child
    processes did not consider ptrace(2) attached processes and would
    leave a ptrace reference dangling. This could lead to a local user
    being able to crash the machine.
  • CVE-2005-3271: A task leak problem when releasing POSIX timers
    was fixed. This could lead to local users causing a local denial of
    service by exhausting system memory.
  • CVE-2005-3805: A locking problem in POSIX timer handling could
    be used by a local attacker on a SMP system to deadlock the
    machine.
  • CVE-2005-3181: A problem in the Linux auditing code could lead
    to a memory leak which finally could exhaust system memory of a
    machine.
  • CVE-2005-2973: An infinite loop in the IPv6 UDP loopback
    handling can be easily triggered by a local user and lead to a
    denial of service.
  • CVE-2005-3806: A bug in IPv6 flow label handling code could be
    used by a local attacker to free non-allocated memory and in turn
    corrupt kernel memory and likely crash the machine.
  • CVE-2005-3807: A memory kernel leak in VFS lease handling can
    exhaust the machine memory and so cause a local denial of service.
    This is seen in regular Samba use and could also be triggered by
    local attackers.
  • CVE-2005-3055: Unplugging an user space controlled USB device
    with an URB pending in user space could crash the kernel. This can
    be easily triggered by local attacker.
  • CVE-2005-3180: Fixed incorrect padding in Orinoco wireless
    driver, which could expose kernel data to the air.
  • CVE-2005-3044: Missing sockfd_put() calls in routing_ioctl()
    leaked file handles which in turn could exhaust system memory.
  • CVE-2005-3527: A race condition in do_coredump in signal.c
    allows local users to cause a denial of service (machine hang) by
    triggering a core dump in one thread while another thread has a
    pending SIGSTOP.

Additionally the following non security bugs were fixed:

  • Fix NFS cache consistency races which could lead to data
    corruption and crashes.
  • A kernel panic when loading the r8169 module without
    powermanagment was fixed.
  • i386: A race condition in the power management module
    powernow-k8 was fixed.
  • Special ELF binaries without DATA and BSS segments could not be
    loaded due to too strict kernel checks.
  • Various bugs in the ALSA sound system were fixed.
  • A problem in IPv6 initialization with IPv6 disabled by policy
    that could leave dangling kernel pointers around was fixed.
  • Added sis 965l support to the sis5513 ide driver.
  • Disabled C2/C3 power management states on all IBM R40e
    BIOSes.
  • Fixed machine crash when switching the io-scheduler away from
    CFQ.
  • Call reboot notifiers of power off to switch off certain
    machines.
  • AMD64: Don’t use TSC for time keeping on AMD single socket dual
    core systems.
  • Fixed the “treason uncloaked” kernel messages that were caused
    by a stale pred_flags variable when the TCP snd_wnd changes.
  • USB floppy drive SAMSUNG SFD-321U/EP was detected 8 times.
  • CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY is not supportable yet according to Intel,
    so we disabled it.
  • Disable ACPI on machines from before 2001 on all kernels
    again.
  • USB: always export interface information for modalias.
  • Various iSCSI fixes.
  • Avoid a potential fs corruption on SMP systems.
  • i386: Increased number of CONFIG_SERIAL8250NR_UARTS to 8.
  • Fixed a data corruption in the MD device driver when the
    delayed recovery is interrupted.
  • ahci: Don’t set SActive for non-NCQ commands. This could have
    left the LED burning even for inactivity.
  • ppc: Handle GCC 4 generated relocations for 32bit memory access
    in the module loader.
  • ppc: Removed a special case for ppc to use MAC from prom if CSR
    is corrupt
  • CIFS: Made cifsd (kernel daemon for the CIFS filesystem)
    suspend aware.
  • Fixed ACPI issues on an ASUS L5D.
  • IDE: Worked around power management problems.
  • Disable AMD TLB flush filter on i386/x86-64 (might help 3d
    drivers)
  • Quiet down capacity reading from IDE CD when no media
    inserted.
  • ACPI: Worked around undefined ZOO* objects on certain Acer
    Aspire notebooks.
  • ACPI: Fixed Oops on pcc_acpi unloading.
  • ACPI: Fix hang in ACPI device scan on certain HP nx
    Laptops.
  • Fixed a bug in ACL handling of tmpfs.
  • Fix time going twice as fast problem on ATI Xpress chip
    sets.

2) Solution or Work-Around

None, please install the fixed packages.

3) Special Instructions and Notes

SPECIAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The following paragraphs guide you through the installation
process in a step-by-step fashion. The character sequence “****”
marks the beginning of a new paragraph. In some cases, the steps
outlined in a particular paragraph may or may not be applicable to
your situation. Therefore, make sure that you read through all of
the steps below before attempting any of these procedures. All of
the commands that need to be executed must be run as the superuser
‘root’. Each step relies on the steps before it to complete
successfully.

  • Step 1: Determine the needed kernel type.

    Use the following command to determine which kind of kernel is
    installed on your system:

    rpm -qf –qf ‘%{name} ‘ /boot/vmlinuz

  • Step 2: Download the packages for your system.

    Download the kernel RPM package for your distribution with the
    name indicated by Step 1. Starting from SUSE LINUX 9.2, kernel
    modules that are not free were moved to a separate package with the
    suffix ‘-nongpl’ in its name. Download that package as well if you
    rely on hardware that requires non-free drivers, such as some ISDN
    adapters. The list of all kernel RPM packages is appended
    below.

    The kernel-source package does not contain a binary kernel in
    bootable form. Instead, it contains the sources that correspond
    with the binary kernel RPM packages. This package is required to
    build third party add-on modules.

  • Step 3: Verify authenticity of the packages.

    Verify the authenticity of the kernel RPM package using the
    methods as listed in Section 6 of this SUSE Security
    Announcement.

  • Step 4: Installing your kernel rpm package.

    Install the rpm package that you have downloaded in Step 2 with
    the command

    rpm -Uhv <FILE> replacing <FILE> with the filename
    of the RPM package downloaded.

    Warning: After performing this step, your system may not boot
    unless the following steps have been followed completely.

  • Step 5: Configuring and creating the initrd.

    The initrd is a RAM disk that is loaded into the memory of your
    system together with the kernel boot image by the boot loader. The
    kernel uses the content of this RAM disk to execute commands that
    must be run before the kernel can mount its root file system. The
    initrd is typically used to load hard disk controller drivers and
    file system modules. The variable INITRD_MODULES in
    /etc/sysconfig/kernel determines which kernel modules are loaded in
    the initrd.

    After a new kernel rpm has been installed, the initrd must be
    recreated to include the updated kernel modules. Usually this
    happens automatically when installing the kernel rpm. If creating
    the initrd fails for some reason, manually run the command

    /sbin/mkinitrd

  • Step 6: Update the boot loader, if necessary.

    Depending on your software configuration, you either have the
    LILO or GRUB boot loader installed and initialized on your system.
    Use the command

    grep LOADER_TYPE /etc/sysconfig/bootloader

    to find out which boot loader is configured.

    The GRUB boot loader does not require any further action after a
    new kernel has been installed. You may proceed to the next step if
    you are using GRUB.

    If you use the LILO boot loader, lilo must be run to
    reinitialize the boot sector of the hard disk. Usually this happens
    automatically when installing the kernel RPM. In case this step
    fails, run the command

    /sbin/lilo

    Warning: An improperly installed boot loader will render your
    system unbootable.

  • Step 7: Reboot.

    If all of the steps above have been successfully completed on
    your system, the new kernel including the kernel modules and the
    initrd are ready to boot. The system needs to be rebooted for the
    changes to be active. Make sure that all steps have been completed
    then reboot using the command

    /sbin/shutdown -r now

    Your system will now shut down and restart with the new
    kernel.

4) Package Location and Checksums

The preferred method for installing security updates is to use
the YaST Online Update (YOU) tool. YOU detects which updates are
required and automatically performs the necessary steps to verify
and install them. Alternatively, download the update packages for
your distribution manually and verify their integrity by the
methods listed in Section 6 of this announcement. Then install the
packages using the command

rpm -Fhv <file.rpm>

to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the
filename of the downloaded RPM package.

5) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds:

See SUSE Security Summary Report.


6) 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 where you saved
    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 the integrity of a package needs to be verified to
    ensure that it has not been tampered with.

    There are two verification methods that can be used
    independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a
    downloaded file or RPM package:

    1. Using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package
    2. MD5 checksums as provided in this announcement
  • 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 at the end of this announcement.

  • If you need an alternative means of verification, use the
    md5sum

    command to verify the authenticity of the packages. Execute the
    command

    md5sum <filename.rpm>

    after you downloaded the file from a SUSE FTP server or its
    mirrors. Then compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is
    listed in the SUSE security announcement. Because the announcement
    containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (by security@suse.de), the checksums show
    proof of the authenticity of the package if the signature of the
    announcement is valid. Note that the md5 sums published in the SUSE
    Security Announcements are valid for the respective packages only.
    Newer versions of these packages cannot be verified.

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

        suse-security@suse.com

  • General Linux and SUSE security discussion.
    All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list. To
    subscribe, send an e-mail to
