[SECURITY] [DSA 2264-1] linux-2.6 security update

Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2010-2524

    David Howells reported an issue in the Common Internet File System (CIFS).
    Local users could cause arbitrary CIFS shares to be mounted by introducing
    malicious redirects.

CVE-2010-3875

    Vasiliy Kulikov discovered an issue in the Linux implementation of the

[ MDVSA-2010:198 ] kernel

 members, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information
 from kernel memory via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2009-3228)
 
 The do_pages_move function in mm/migrate.c in the Linux kernel before
 2.6.33-rc7 does not validate node values, which allows local users
 to read arbitrary kernel memory locations, cause a denial of service
 (OOPS), and possibly have unspecified other impact by specifying a
 node that is not part of the kernel node set. (CVE-2010-0415)
 
 The ATI Rage 128 (aka r128) driver in the Linux kernel before
 2.6.31-git11 does not properly verify Concurrent Command Engine (CCE)

[ MDVSA-2010:188 ] kernel

 members, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information
 from kernel memory via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2009-3228)
 
 The do_pages_move function in mm/migrate.c in the Linux kernel before
 2.6.33-rc7 does not validate node values, which allows local users
 to read arbitrary kernel memory locations, cause a denial of service
 (OOPS), and possibly have unspecified other impact by specifying a
 node that is not part of the kernel node set. (CVE-2010-0415)

    sensitive kernel memory.

CVE-2011-0695

    Jens Kuehnel reported an issue in the InfiniBand stack. Remote attackers can
    exploit a race condition to cause a denial of service (kernel panic).

CVE-2011-0711

    Dan Rosenberg reported an issue in the XFS filesystem. Local users may
    obtain access to sensitive kernel memory.

[ MDVSA-2011:029 ] kernel

 Problem Description:

 A vulnerability was discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel:
 The X.25 implementation does not properly parse facilities, which
 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory
 corruption and panic) or possibly have
 unspecified other impact via malformed data, a different vulnerability
 than CVE-2010-4164. (CVE-2010-3873)
 
 The bcm_connect function Broadcast Manager in the Controller Area

the package.xml file, related to the (1) download_dir, (2) cache_dir,
(3) tmp_dir, and (4) pear-build-download directories. (CVE-2011-1072,
CVE-2011-1144)

Ben Schmidt discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability in the PHP
Zend engine could allow an attacker to cause a denial of service (heap
memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2010-4697)

Martin Barbella discovered a buffer overflow in the PHP GD extension
that allows an attacker to cause a denial of service (application crash)
via a large number of anti- aliasing steps in an argument to the

[USN-1126-2] PHP Regressions

Details:

USN 1126-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in PHP. The fix for
CVE-2010-4697 introduced an incorrect reference counting regression
in the Zend engine that caused the PHP interpreter to segfault. This
regression affects Ubuntu 6.06 LTS and Ubuntu 8.04 LTS.

The fixes for CVE-2011-1072 and CVE-2011-1144 introduced a regression
in the PEAR installer that prevented it from creating its cache
directory and reporting errors correctly.

Cisco Security Advisory: Multiple Vulnerabilities in Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliances

Crafted IKE Message Denial of Service Vulnerability
+--------------------------------------------------

A crafted IKE message that is sent through an IPsec tunnel that
terminates on a Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliance
could cause all IPsec tunnels that terminate on the same device to be
torn down. Versions 7.0.x, 7.1.x, 7.2.x, 8.0.x, 8.1.x, and 8.2.x are
affected. IKE is not enabled by default. If IKE is enabled, the "isakmp
enable <interface name>" command appears in the configuration.

NTLMv1 Authentication Bypass Vulnerability

[ MDVSA-2009:321 ] pidgin

 The NSS plugin in libpurple in Pidgin 2.4.1 does not verify SSL
 certificates, which makes it easier for remote attackers to trick
 a user into accepting an invalid server certificate for a spoofed
 service. (CVE-2008-3532)
 
 Pidgin 2.4.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
 (crash) via a long filename that contains certain characters, as
 demonstrated using an MSN message that triggers the crash in the
 msn_slplink_process_msg function. (CVE-2008-2955)
 
 The UPnP functionality in Pidgin 2.0.0, and possibly other versions,

CVE-2010-3067

    Tavis Ormandy discovered an issue in the io_submit system call. Local users
    can cause an integer overflow resulting in a denial of service.

CVE-2010-3296

    Dan Rosenberg discovered an issue in the cxgb network driver that allows
    unprivileged users to obtain the contents of sensitive kernel memory.

[ MDVSA-2011:051 ] kernel

 to the bottom page of a shared memory segment, as demonstrated by a
 memory-exhaustion attack against the X.Org X server. (CVE-2010-2240)
 
 The do_tcp_setsockopt function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel
 does not properly restrict TCP_MAXSEG (aka MSS) values, which allows
 local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a setsockopt call
 that specifies a small value, leading to a divide-by-zero error or
 incorrect use of a signed integer. (CVE-2010-4165)
 
 The copy_shmid_to_user function in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel
 does not initialize a certain structure, which allows local users to

 Multiple vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in php:
 
 The _zip_name_locate function in zip_name_locate.c in the Zip extension
 in PHP before 5.3.6 does not properly handle a ZIPARCHIVE::FL_UNCHANGED
 argument, which might allow context-dependent attackers to cause
 a denial of service (application crash) via an empty ZIP archive
 that is processed with a (1) locateName or (2) statName operation
 (CVE-2011-0421).
 
 exif.c in the Exif extension in PHP before 5.3.6 on 64-bit platforms

[ MDVSA-2011:061 ] ffmpeg

 Multiple vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in ffmpeg:
 
 oggparsevorbis.c in FFmpeg 0.5 does not properly perform certain
 pointer arithmetic, which might allow remote attackers to obtain
 sensitive memory contents and cause a denial of service via a crafted
 file that triggers an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2009-4632)
 
 vorbis_dec.c in FFmpeg 0.5 uses an assignment operator when a
 comparison operator was intended, which might allow remote attackers
 to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via

CVE-2009-1155.

Crafted HTTP Packet DoS Vulnerability
+------------------------------------

A crafted SSL or HTTP packet may cause a DoS condition on a Cisco
ASA device that is configured to terminate SSL VPN connections. This
vulnerability can also be triggered to any interface where ASDM access
is enabled. A successful attack may result in a reload of the device. A
TCP three-way handshake is not needed to exploit this vulnerability.


VMware Emulation Flaw x64 Guest Privilege Escalation (2/2)

VULNERABILITY DETAILS
---------------------
This document describes two x64 instruction emulation flaws,
discovered by the author in the aforementioned versions of VMware
products, which allow user-mode code to cause an illegitimate
kernel-mode exception inside the virtual machine.  If the guest
operating system kernel is not written to safely handle such an
exception, it may be possible for user-mode code to interfere with
kernel execution in a way that allows elevation of privileges.
