Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2006-0012
Package names: kernel, mailman
Summary: Multiple vulnerabilities
Date: 2006-03-10
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
Trustix Secure Linux 3.0
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
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.
mailman
Mailman is software to help manage email discussion lists, much like
Majordomo and Smartmail. Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives
each mailing list a webpage, and allows users to subscribe,
unsubscribe, etc. over the Web. Even the list manager can administer
his or her list entirely from the Web. Mailman also integrates most
things people want to do with mailing lists, including archiving, mail
<-> news gateways, and so on.
Problem description:
kernel < TSL 3.0 >
- New Upstream
- SECURITY Fix: With certain types of ftruncate() activity on 2.6
kernels, XFS can end up exposing stale data off disk to a user,
putting extents where holes should be.
- An error in the "nfs_get_user_pages()" function due to insufficient
checks on the return value returned by the "get_user_pages()" function
can be exploited to cause a local DoS by performing an O_DIRECT write
to an NFS file where the user buffer starts with a valid mapped page,
but also contains an unmapped page.
- Missing checks for bad elf entry addresses can be exploited to cause an
endless recursive fault on Intel systems, which results in a local DoS.
- unaligned.c erroneously marked die_if_kernel() with a "noreturn"
attribute.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CVE-2006-0554, CVE-2006-0555, CVE-2006-0741 and
CVE-2006-0742 to these issues.
mailman < TSL 3.0 > < TSL 2.2 >
- SECURITY Fix: Aliet Santiesteban Sifontes has reported a
vulnerability in Mailman, which potentially can be exploited
by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to "Scrubber.py" failing to
handle the exception condition when Python fails to process
an email file attachment that contains utf8 characters in its
filename.
- Mailman did not sufficiently verify the validity of email dates.
Very large numbers in dates caused mailman to crash.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CVE-2005-3573 and CVE-2005-4153 to these issues.
