To update your kernel, please follow the directions located at :

http://www.mandriva.com/en/security/kernelupdate

The remote OracleVM system is missing necessary patches to address critical security updates : please see Oracle VM Security Advisory OVMSA-2013-0039 for details.

The remote VMware ESX / ESXi host is missing a security-related patch.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including remote code execution vulnerabilities, in several third-party components and libraries :

  - Apache Tomcat 
  - Apache Tomcat Manager
  - cURL 
  - Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
  - Kernel 
  - Microsoft SQL Express
  - OpenSSL
  - pam_krb5

Updated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

Security fixes :

* a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the sctp_rcv_ootb() function in the Linux kernel Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted SCTP packet to a target system, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2010-0008, Important)

* a missing boundary check was found in the do_move_pages() function in the memory migration functionality in the Linux kernel. A local user could use this flaw to cause a local denial of service or an information leak. (CVE-2010-0415, Important)

* a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the ip6_dst_lookup_tail() function in the Linux kernel. An attacker on the local network could trigger this flaw by sending IPv6 traffic to a target system, leading to a system crash (kernel OOPS) if dst->neighbour is NULL on the target system when receiving an IPv6 packet. (CVE-2010-0437, Important)

* a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the ext4 file system code in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this flaw to trigger a local denial of service by mounting a specially crafted, journal-less ext4 file system, if that file system forced an EROFS error. (CVE-2009-4308, Moderate)

* an information leak was found in the print_fatal_signal() implementation in the Linux kernel. When '/proc/sys/kernel/print-fatal-signals' is set to 1 (the default value is 0), memory that is reachable by the kernel could be leaked to user-space. This issue could also result in a system crash. Note that this flaw only affected the i386 architecture. (CVE-2010-0003, Moderate)

* missing capability checks were found in the ebtables implementation, used for creating an Ethernet bridge firewall. This could allow a local, unprivileged user to bypass intended capability restrictions and modify ebtables rules. (CVE-2010-0007, Low)

Bug fixes :

* a bug prevented Wake on LAN (WoL) being enabled on certain Intel hardware. (BZ#543449)

* a race issue in the Journaling Block Device. (BZ#553132)

* programs compiled on x86, and that also call sched_rr_get_interval(), were silently corrupted when run on 64-bit systems. (BZ#557684)

* the RHSA-2010:0019 update introduced a regression, preventing WoL from working for network devices using the e1000e driver. (BZ#559335)

* adding a bonding interface in mode balance-alb to a bridge was not functional. (BZ#560588)

* some KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) guests experienced slow performance (and possibly a crash) after suspend/resume. (BZ#560640)

* on some systems, VF cannot be enabled in dom0. (BZ#560665)

* on systems with certain network cards, a system crash occurred after enabling GRO. (BZ#561417)

* for x86 KVM guests with pvclock enabled, the boot clocks were registered twice, possibly causing KVM to write data to a random memory area during the guest's life. (BZ#561454)

* serious performance degradation for 32-bit applications, that map (mmap) thousands of small files, when run on a 64-bit system.
(BZ#562746)

* improved kexec/kdump handling. Previously, on some systems under heavy load, kexec/kdump was not functional. (BZ#562772)

* dom0 was unable to boot when using the Xen hypervisor on a system with a large number of logical CPUs. (BZ#562777)

* a fix for a bug that could potentially cause file system corruption.
(BZ#564281)

* a bug caused infrequent cluster issues for users of GFS2.
(BZ#564288)

* gfs2_delete_inode failed on read-only file systems. (BZ#564290)

Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, sensitive memory leak or privilege escalation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2009-2691     Steve Beattie and Kees Cook reported an information leak     in the maps and smaps files available under /proc. Local     users may be able to read this data for setuid processes     while the ELF binary is being loaded.

  - CVE-2009-2695     Eric Paris provided several fixes to increase the     protection provided by the mmap_min_addr tunable against     NULL pointer dereference vulnerabilities.

  - CVE-2009-3080     Dave Jones reported an issue in the gdth SCSI driver. A     missing check for negative offsets in an ioctl call     could be exploited by local users to create a denial of     service or potentially gain elevated privileges.

  - CVE-2009-3726     Trond Myklebust reported an issue where a malicious NFS     server could cause a denial of service condition on its     clients by returning incorrect attributes during an open     call.

  - CVE-2009-3889     Joe Malicki discovered an issue in the megaraid_sas     driver. Insufficient permissions on the sysfs dbg_lvl     interface allow local users to modify the debug logging     behavior.

  - CVE-2009-4005     Roel Kluin discovered an issue in the hfc_usb driver, an     ISDN driver for Colognechip HFC-S USB chip. A potential     read overflow exists which may allow remote users to     cause a denial of service condition (oops).

  - CVE-2009-4020     Amerigo Wang discovered an issue in the HFS filesystem     that would allow a denial of service by a local user who     has sufficient privileges to mount a specially crafted     filesystem.

  - CVE-2009-4021     Anana V. Avati discovered an issue in the fuse     subsystem. If the system is sufficiently low on memory,     a local user can cause the kernel to dereference an     invalid pointer resulting in a denial of service (oops)     and potentially an escalation of privileges.

  - CVE-2009-4138     Jay Fenlason discovered an issue in the firewire stack     that allows local users to cause a denial of service     (oops or crash) by making a specially crafted ioctl     call.

  - CVE-2009-4308     Ted Ts'o discovered an issue in the ext4 filesystem that     allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference). For this to be exploitable, the     local user must have sufficient privileges to mount a     filesystem.

  - CVE-2009-4536 CVE-2009-4538     Fabian Yamaguchi reported issues in the e1000 and e1000e     drivers for Intel gigabit network adapters which allow     remote users to bypass packet filters using specially     crafted Ethernet frames.

  - CVE-2010-0003     Andi Kleen reported a defect which allows local users to     gain read access to memory reachable by the kernel when     the print-fatal-signals option is enabled. This option     is disabled by default.

  - CVE-2010-0007     Florian Westphal reported a lack of capability checking     in the ebtables netfilter subsystem. If the ebtables     module is loaded, local users can add and modify     ebtables rules.

  - CVE-2010-0291     Al Viro reported several issues with the mmap/mremap     system calls that allow local users to cause a denial of     service (system panic) or obtain elevated privileges.

  - CVE-2010-0410     Sebastian Krahmer discovered an issue in the netlink     connector subsystem that permits local users to allocate     large amounts of system memory resulting in a denial of     service (out of memory).

  - CVE-2010-0415     Ramon de Carvalho Valle discovered an issue in the     sys_move_pages interface, limited to amd64, ia64 and     powerpc64 flavors in Debian. Local users can exploit     this issue to cause a denial of service (system crash)     or gain access to sensitive kernel memory.

  - CVE-2010-0622     Jerome Marchand reported an issue in the futex subsystem     that allows a local user to force an invalid futex state     which results in a denial of service (oops).

a. Service Console OS update for COS kernel

   This patch updates the service console kernel to fix multiple    security issues.

   The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)    has assigned the names CVE-2010-0415, CVE-2010-0307,    CVE-2010-0291, CVE-2010-0622, CVE-2010-1087, CVE-2010-1437, and    CVE-2010-1088 to these issues.

b. Likewise package updates

   Updates to the likewisekrb5, likewiseopenldap, likewiseopen,    and pamkrb5 packages address several security issues.

   The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)    has assigned the names CVE-2009-0844, CVE-2009-0845,    CVE-2009-0846, CVE-2009-4212, and CVE-2010-1321 to these issues.

Security fixes :

  - a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the     sctp_rcv_ootb() function in the Linux kernel Stream     Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation. A     remote attacker could send a specially crafted SCTP     packet to a target system, resulting in a denial of     service. (CVE-2010-0008, Important)

  - a missing boundary check was found in the     do_move_pages() function in the memory migration     functionality in the Linux kernel. A local user could     use this flaw to cause a local denial of service or an     information leak. (CVE-2010-0415, Important)

  - a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the     ip6_dst_lookup_tail() function in the Linux kernel. An     attacker on the local network could trigger this flaw by     sending IPv6 traffic to a target system, leading to a     system crash (kernel OOPS) if dst->neighbour is NULL on     the target system when receiving an IPv6 packet.
    (CVE-2010-0437, Important)

  - a NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the ext4     file system code in the Linux kernel. A local attacker     could use this flaw to trigger a local denial of service     by mounting a specially crafted, journal-less ext4 file     system, if that file system forced an EROFS error.
    (CVE-2009-4308, Moderate)

  - an information leak was found in the     print_fatal_signal() implementation in the Linux kernel.
    When '/proc/sys/kernel/print-fatal-signals' is set to 1     (the default value is 0), memory that is reachable by     the kernel could be leaked to user-space. This issue     could also result in a system crash. Note that this flaw     only affected the i386 architecture. (CVE-2010-0003,     Moderate)

  - missing capability checks were found in the ebtables     implementation, used for creating an Ethernet bridge     firewall. This could allow a local, unprivileged user to     bypass intended capability restrictions and modify     ebtables rules. (CVE-2010-0007, Low)

Bug fixes :

  - a bug prevented Wake on LAN (WoL) being enabled on     certain Intel hardware. (BZ#543449)

  - a race issue in the Journaling Block Device. (BZ#553132)

  - programs compiled on x86, and that also call     sched_rr_get_interval(), were silently corrupted when     run on 64-bit systems. (BZ#557684)

  - the RHSA-2010:0019 update introduced a regression,     preventing WoL from working for network devices using     the e1000e driver. (BZ#559335)

  - adding a bonding interface in mode balance-alb to a     bridge was not functional. (BZ#560588)

  - some KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) guests     experienced slow performance (and possibly a crash)     after suspend/resume. (BZ#560640)

  - on some systems, VF cannot be enabled in dom0.
    (BZ#560665)

  - on systems with certain network cards, a system crash     occurred after enabling GRO. (BZ#561417)

  - for x86 KVM guests with pvclock enabled, the boot clocks     were registered twice, possibly causing KVM to write     data to a random memory area during the guest's life.
    (BZ#561454)

  - serious performance degradation for 32-bit applications,     that map (mmap) thousands of small files, when run on a     64-bit system. (BZ#562746)

  - improved kexec/kdump handling. Previously, on some     systems under heavy load, kexec/kdump was not     functional. (BZ#562772)

  - dom0 was unable to boot when using the Xen hypervisor on     a system with a large number of logical CPUs.
    (BZ#562777)

  - a fix for a bug that could potentially cause file system     corruption. (BZ#564281)

  - a bug caused infrequent cluster issues for users of     GFS2. (BZ#564288)

  - gfs2_delete_inode failed on read-only file systems.
    (BZ#564290)

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.
