ca21d0f18806b9246b54ef9e7a73dafa480db06ba59e7da8217f46ad1652f53eMandriva Linux Security Advisory - Many vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel. The 2.6.17 kernel and earlier, when running on IA64 and SPARC platforms would allow a local user to cause a DoS (crash) via a malformed ELF file. The mincore function in the Linux kernel did not properly lock access to user space, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors, possibly related to a deadlock. An unspecified vulnerability in the listxattr system call, when a "bad inode" is present, could allow a local user to cause a DoS (data corruption) and possibly gain privileges via unknown vectors. The zlib_inflate function allows local users to cause a crash via a malformed filesystem that uses zlib compression that triggers memory corruption. The ext3fs_dirhash function could allow local users to cause a DoS (crash) via an ext3 stream with malformed data structures. When SELinux hooks are enabled, the kernel could allow a local user to cause a DoS (crash) via a malformed file stream that triggers a NULL pointer derefernece. The key serial number collision avoidance code in the key_alloc_serial function in kernels 2.6.9 up to 2.6.20 allows local users to cause a crash via vectors thatr trigger a null dereference. The Linux kernel version 2.6.13 to 2.6.20.1 allowed a remote attacker to cause a DoS (oops) via a crafted NFSACL2 ACCESS request that triggered a free of an incorrect pointer. A local user could read unreadable binaries by using the interpreter (PT_INTERP) functionality and triggering a core dump; a variant of CVE-2004-1073.
7c7b3b5bbbacea086cb15820a0722f0763fd7ad9e6731f41b9a2f1adff516926Mandriva Security Advisory - Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel. A double free vulnerability in the squashfs module could allow a local user to cause a Denial of Service by mounting a crafted squashfs filesystem. The zlib_inflate function allows local users to cause a crash via a malformed filesystem that uses zlib compression that triggers memory corruption. The key serial number collision avoidance code in the key_alloc_serial function in kernels 2.6.9 up to 2.6.20 allows local users to cause a crash via vectors that will trigger a null dereference. The provided packages are patched to fix these vulnerabilities. All users are encouraged to upgrade to these updated kernels immediately and reboot to effect the fixes.
