DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Oracle Solaris, which
can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service) and gain escalated privileges and by malicious people to
disclose potentially sensitive information and manipulate certain
data.

1) An unspecified error in the bsmconv and bsmunconv components can
be exploited by local users to gain escalated privileges.

2) An unspecified error in the Kernel/sockfs component can be
exploited by local users to cause a crash.

3) An unspecified error in the gssd component can be exploited by
local users to gain escalated privileges.

4) An unspecified error in the Password Policy component can be
exploited by local users to gain escalated privileges.

5) An unspecified error in the Kernel/Privileges component can be
exploited by local users to gain escalated privileges.

6) An unspecified error in the SCTP component can be exploited by
local users to cause a crash.

7) An unspecified error in the libsasl component can be exploited to
read, update, insert, or delete certain Solaris accessible data.

8) An unspecified error in the Kernel/GLD component can be exploited
by authenticated users to read certain Solaris accessible data.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 8, 9, 10, and 11.

SOLUTION:
Apply updates (please see the vendor's advisory for details).

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
It is currently unclear who reported the vulnerabilities as the
Oracle Critical Patch Update for April 2012 only provides a bundled
list of credits. This section will be updated when/if the original
reporters provide more information.
