-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:103-1 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : udev Date : December 3, 2009 Affected: 2008.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Security vulnerabilities have been identified and fixed in udev. udev before 1.4.1 does not verify whether a NETLINK message originates from kernel space, which allows local users to gain privileges by sending a NETLINK message from user space (CVE-2009-1185). Buffer overflow in the util_path_encode function in udev/lib/libudev-util.c in udev before 1.4.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (service outage) via vectors that trigger a call with crafted arguments (CVE-2009-1186). The updated packages have been patched to prevent this. Update: Packages for 2008.0 are being provided due to extended support for Corporate products. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1185 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1186 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2008.0: 8268a6d9b8b782f008c6bad08081aa1f 2008.0/i586/libvolume_id0-114-7.1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm f25010279ad483a4bd1df3300be1eff5 2008.0/i586/libvolume_id0-devel-114-7.1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm 527afa06fad5b28de6ba60c12c5cc685 2008.0/i586/udev-114-7.1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm b472ccee86044dba507029b63385e306 2008.0/i586/udev-doc-114-7.1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm 33a3aeb9701b9a90b776b08595055f05 2008.0/i586/udev-tools-114-7.1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm b6057c15bb22b381d07ee45a6bc81974 2008.0/SRPMS/udev-114-7.1mdv2008.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2008.0/X86_64: 8e05d00d129d11f2442390ec7dd4174c 2008.0/x86_64/lib64volume_id0-114-7.1mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm 2718c04a037f773bca23b010265071ce 2008.0/x86_64/lib64volume_id0-devel-114-7.1mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm 6756f2bb0dad6dee8188e5dccc1f92cb 2008.0/x86_64/udev-114-7.1mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm b65a69fde92e29d6affa25d32e881dff 2008.0/x86_64/udev-doc-114-7.1mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm bf39012f0e457b61fd203711625d78dc 2008.0/x86_64/udev-tools-114-7.1mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm b6057c15bb22b381d07ee45a6bc81974 2008.0/SRPMS/udev-114-7.1mdv2008.0.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
