Ubuntu Security Notice 875-1

Posted Dec 18, 2009

Authored by Ubuntu | Site security.ubuntu.com

Ubuntu Security Notice 875-1 - Multiple insecure temporary file handling vulnerabilities were discovered in Red Hat Cluster. A local attacker could exploit these to overwrite arbitrary local files via symlinks. It was discovered that CMAN did not properly handle malformed configuration files. An attacker could cause a denial of service (via CPU consumption and memory corruption) in a node if the attacker were able to modify the cluster configuration for the node.
