-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ______________________________________________________________________________ SUSE Security Summary Report Announcement ID: SUSE-SR:2008:011 Date: Fri, 09 May 2008 16:00:00 +0000 Cross-References: CVE-2007-5624, CVE-2007-5803, CVE-2007-5935 CVE-2007-5936, CVE-2007-5937, CVE-2008-1237 CVE-2008-1360, CVE-2008-1372, CVE-2008-1380 CVE-2008-1531, CVE-2008-1612, CVE-2008-1670 CVE-2008-1671, CVE-2008-1693, CVE-2008-1720 CVE-2008-1922, MFSA 2008-15, MFSA 2008-20 Content of this advisory: 1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities: - rsync heap overflow in xattr code - MozillaFirefox 2.0.0.14 security release - poppler PDF problems - nagios cross site scripting problems - lighttpd SSL denial of service - sarg various buffer overflows - squid denial of service fix - bzip2 decoder denial of service - kdelibs3 unix signal handling - texlive-bin dvips overflows - kdelibs4 heap overflow in PNG loader of KHTML - Sun Java 1.6.0 u6 security update 2) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: None listed this week. 3) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities To avoid flooding mailing lists with SUSE Security Announcements for minor issues, SUSE Security releases weekly summary reports for the low profile vulnerability fixes. The SUSE Security Summary Reports do not list or download URLs like the SUSE Security Announcements that are released for more severe vulnerabilities. Fixed packages for the following incidents are already available on our FTP server and via the YaST Online Update. - rsync heap overflow in xattr code A remotely exploitable heap overflow in rsync's xattr code has been fixed. CVE-2008-1720 has been assigned to this issue. rsync was fixed on openSUSE 10.3. - MozillaFirefox 2.0.0.14 security release Mozilla Firefox was brought to security update version 2.0.0.14. Following security problems were fixed: - MFSA 2008-20/CVE-2008-1380: Fixes for security problems in the JavaScript engine described in MFSA 2008-15 (CVE-2008-1237) introduced a stability problem, where some users experienced frequent crashes during JavaScript garbage collection. These crashes may be exploitable if someone finds a reliable way to trigger the crash. We were not able to reproduce the crashes internally. Updates have been released on SLE 10, SUSE Linux 10.1, openSUSE 10.2 and 10.3. - poppler PDF problems Specially crafted PDF files with embedded fonts could potentially be abused to trick applications that process PDF files into executing arbitrary code (CVE-2008-1693). Fixes for poppler for all distributions containing poppler have been released. - nagios cross site scripting problems Several cross site scripting (XSS) issues in nagios were fixed (CVE-2007-5624, CVE-2007-5803, CVE-2008-1360). SLE 10, openSUSE 10.2 and 10.3 received fixed nagios packages. - lighttpd SSL denial of service The web server lighttpd had a problem, where an error in one SSL connection could lead to termination of all SSL connections (CVE-2008-1531) This problem has been fixed in SLE 10, SUSE Linux 10.1, openSUSE 10.2 and 10.3. - sarg various buffer overflows Multiple stack buffer overflows have been fixed in the Squid logfile analyzer sarg. (CVE-2008-1922) sarg updates have been released for SUSE Linux 10.1, openSUSE 10.2 and 10.3. - squid denial of service fix A flaw in a previous security update could cause squid to crash under certain circumstances (CVE-2008-1612). squid was updated on all distributions. - bzip2 decoder denial of service Specially crafted files could crash the bzip2-decoder (CVE-2008-1372). bzip2 was updated on all distributions. - kdelibs3 unix signal handling Start_kdeinit did not handle unix signals the right way (CVE-2008-1671) This was only a problem in openSUSE 10.3 and fixed there. - texlive-bin dvips overflows Buffer overflows in dvips and dviljk could be triggered by specially crafted dvi files (CVE-2007-5935, CVE-2007-5937). dvips additionally created temporary files in an insecure manner (CVE-2007-5936). Only openSUSE 10.3 updates were missing for this issue, the others were released several weeks ago already. - kdelibs4 heap overflow in PNG loader of KHTML A heap overflow in the PNG loader of KHTML has been fixed. CVE-2008-1670 has been assigned to this issue. Only openSUSE 10.3 was affected and fixed. - Sun Java 1.6.0 u6 security update Sun Java was updated to 1.6.0u6 to fix several bugs and potentially also security problems. Sun has however not published any details regarding Security Vulnerabilities in this update. Only openSUSE 10.3 contains Sun Java 1.6.0 and was fixed. ______________________________________________________________________________ 2) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds None listed this week. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information - Announcement authenticity verification: SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE security announcements are published with a valid signature. To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file and run the command gpg --verify <file> replacing <file> with the name of the file containing the announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like: gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9 gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security(a)suse.de>" where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed. If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the command gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc - Package authenticity verification: SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, the authenticity and integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. The internal RPM package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm> to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it contains a valid signature from build(a)suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA. This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and included at the end of this announcement. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: opensuse-security(a)opensuse.org - General Linux and SUSE security discussion. All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to <opensuse-security+subscribe(a)opensuse.org>. opensuse-security-announce(a)opensuse.org - SUSE's announce-only mailing list. Only SUSE's security announcements are sent to this list.

In particular, the clear text signature should show proof of the authenticity of the text.
