-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-9312 2010-05-31 17:43:32 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : ircd-hybrid Product : Fedora 12 Version : 7.2.3 Release : 11.fc12 URL : http://www.ircd-hybrid.org/ Summary : Internet Relay Chat Server Description : Ircd-hybrid is an advanced IRC server which is most commonly used on the EFNet IRC network. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Two vulnerabilities were reported in ircd-hybrid, ircd-ratbox, and oftc-hybrid. The first is an integer overflow that can lead to a denial of service or, possibly, the execution of arbitrary code on the ircd server (CVE-2009-4016 (patch [1])), the second is a NULL pointer dereference that can lead to a denial of service of the ircd server (CVE-2010-0300 (patch [2])). This has been corrected in upstream ircd-ratbox 2.2.9 [3]. CVE-2010-0300 may be ircd- ratbox specific, however CVE-2009-4016 affects both ircd servers.
