Updated kernel-rt packages that fix multiple security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise MRG 2.4.

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

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's TCP/IP protocol suite implementation handled sending of certain UDP packets over sockets that used the UDP_CORK option when the UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) feature was enabled on the output device. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2013-4470, Important)

* A flaw was found in the way the perf_trace_event_perm() function in the Linux kernel checked permissions for the function tracer functionality. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to enable function tracing and cause a denial of service on the system.
(CVE-2013-2930, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the net_ctl_permissions() function in the Linux kernel checked access permissions. A local, unprivileged user could potentially use this flaw to access certain files in /proc/sys/net regardless of the underlying file system permissions.
(CVE-2013-4270, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Adaptec RAID controller (aacraid) checked permissions of compat IOCTLs. A local attacker could use this flaw to bypass intended security restrictions.
(CVE-2013-6383, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the get_dumpable() function return value was interpreted in the ptrace subsystem of the Linux kernel. When 'fs.suid_dumpable' was set to 2, a local, unprivileged local user could use this flaw to bypass intended ptrace restrictions and obtain potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2013-2929, Low)

* An invalid pointer dereference flaw was found in the Marvell 8xxx Libertas WLAN (libertas) driver in the Linux kernel. A local user able to write to a file that is provided by the libertas driver and located on the debug file system (debugfs) could use this flaw to crash the system. Note: The debugfs file system must be mounted locally to exploit this issue. It is not mounted by default. (CVE-2013-6378, Low)

* A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 source address-based routing implementation. A local attacker who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this flaw to crash the system.
(CVE-2013-6431, Low)

Red Hat would like to thank Hannes Frederic Sowa for reporting CVE-2013-4470. The CVE-2013-4270 issue was discovered by Miroslav Vadkerti of Red Hat.

Updated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4 Extended Update Support.

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.

Various bug and CVE fixes.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-001880 advisory.

    The Linux kernel before 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly     initialize certain data structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK     option in a setsockopt system call and sends both short and long packets, related to the     ip_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv4/ip_output.c and the ip6_ufo_append_data function in     net/ipv6/ip6_output.c.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Linux kernel :

The ipc_rcu_putref function in ipc/util.c in the Linux kernel before 3.10 does not properly manage a reference count, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or system crash) via a crafted application (CVE-2013-4483).

The skb_flow_dissect function in net/core/flow_dissector.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a small value in the IHL field of a packet with IPIP encapsulation (CVE-2013-4348).

The Linux kernel before 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly initialize certain data structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a setsockopt system call and sends both short and long packets, related to the ip_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv4/ip_output.c and the ip6_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c (CVE-2013-4470).

The ext4_orphan_del function in fs/ext4/namei.c in the Linux kernel before 3.7.3 does not properly handle orphan-list entries for non-journal filesystems, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted filesystem on removable media, as demonstrated by the e2fsprogs tests/f_orphan_extents_inode/image.gz test (CVE-2013-2015).

net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via network traffic that triggers a large response packet (CVE-2013-4387).

The IPv6 SCTP implementation in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.1 uses data structures and function calls that do not trigger an intended configuration of IPsec encryption, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network (CVE-2013-4350).

The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.
