Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2005-0057

Package names:     cups, kernel, openssl
Summary:           Multiple vulnerabilities
Date:              2005-10-14
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
                   Trustix Secure Linux 3.0
                   Trustix Operating System - Enterprise Server 2

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
  cups
  The Common UNIX Printing System provides a portable printing layer for
  UNIX(R) operating systems. It has been developed by Easy Software Products
  to promote a standard printing solution for all UNIX vendors and users.
  CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command-line interfaces.

  kernel
  The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
  Trustix Secure Linux operating system.  The kernel handles the basic
  functions of the operating system:  memory allocation, process allocation,
  device input and output, etc.

  openssl
  A C library that provides various crytographic algorithms and protocols,
  including DES, RC4, RSA, and SSL. Includes shared libraries.

Problem description:
  cups < TSL 2.2 > < TSEL 2 >
  - Re-Apply Security Fix. CVE-2004-0888, CVE-2005-0064.

  kernel < TSL 3.0 >
  - New Upstream
  - SECURITY Fix: The sys_set_mempolicy function in mempolicy.c in Linux
    kernel 2.6.x allows local users to cause a denial of service
    (kernel BUG()) via a negative first argument.
  - Race condition in Linux 2.6, when threads are sharing memory mapping
    via CLONE_VM (such as linuxthreads and vfork), might allow local users
    to cause a denial of service (deadlock) by triggering a core dump while
    waiting for a thread that has just performed an exec.
  - fs/exec.c in Linux 2.6, when one thread is tracing another thread that
    shares the same memory map, might allow local users to cause a denial
    of service (deadlock) by forcing a core dump when the traced thread is
    in the TASK_TRACED state.
  - The HFS and HFS+ (hfsplus) modules in Linux 2.6 allows attackers to cause
    a denial of service (oops) by using hfsplus to mount a filesystem that is
    not hfsplus.
  - Race condition in ebtables netfilter module (ebtables.c) in Linux 2.6,
    when running on an SMP system that is operating under a heavy load, might
    allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a series
    of packets that cause a value to be modified after it has been read but
    before it has been locked.
  - Memory leak in "/security/keys/request_key_auth.c" can potentially be
    exploited by non-privileged users to cause a DoS.

    The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
    assigned the names CVE-2005-3053, CVE-2005-3106, CVE-2005-3107,
    CVE-2005-3108, CVE-2005-3109, CVE-2005-3110, CVE-2005-3119.

  openssl < TSL 3.0 > < TSL 2.2 > < TSEL 2 >
  - SECURITY Fix: Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
    (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the countermeasure
    against man-in-the-middle protocol-version rollback in the SSL 2.0 server
    implementation, which is a bad idea.

    The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
    assigned the name CVE-2005-2969
