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. - php5 php5 has been updated to fix problems with SSL certificate validation and overflows in the exif and gd modules (CVE-2009-3291,CVE-2009-3292, CVE-2009-3293, CVE-2009-2687). Affected Products: SLE10-SP2, SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - newt A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the way newt used to process content, to be rendered in text dialog box. Local attacker could issue a specially-crafted text dialog box rendering request (direct or via custom application), leading to denial of service (application crash) or, potentially, to execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2009-2905). Affected Products: SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - rubygem-actionpack This update improves the escaping in the helper code of Ruby on Rails to protect against XSS attacks (CVE-2009-3009) and an information leak (CVE-2009-3086). Affected Products: SLE11, openSUSE 11.1 - rubygem-activesupport This update improves the escaping in the helper code of Ruby on Rails to protect against XSS attacks (CVE-2009-3009) and an information leak (CVE-2009-3086). Affected Products: SLE11, openSUSE 11.1 - java-1_4_2-ibm IBM Java 1.4.2 was updated to SR13 FP1. It fixes following two security issues: CVE-2009-2625: A vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) with parsing XML data might allow a remote client to create a denial-of-service condition on the system that the JRE runs on. CVE-2008-5349: A vulnerability in how the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) handles certain RSA public keys might cause the JRE to consume an excessive amount of CPU resources. This might lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition on affected systems. Such keys could be provided by a remote client of an application. This issue affects the following security providers: IBMJCE, IBMPKCS11Impl and IBMJCEFIPS. Affected Products: SLES9, SLE10-SP2, SLE10-SP3, SLE11 - postgresql Multiple security vulnerabilities have been fixed in PostgrSQL - CVE-2009-3229: allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service - CVE-2009-3230: allows remote authenticated users to gain higher privileges - CVE-2009-3231: when using LDAP authentication with anonymous binds, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via an empty password Affected Products: SLES9, SLE10-SP2, SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - samba samba's make_connection_snum() handles certain input incorrectly, which may lead to disclosure of the root directory (CVE-2009-2813). Additionally an information disclosure vulnerability in mount.cifs has been fixed (CVE-2009-2948) as well as a DoS condition (CVE-2009-2906). Affected Products: SLES9, SLE10-SP2, SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - phpMyAdmin phpMyAdmin has been updated to version 2.11.9.6 to fix a cross-site scripting (XSS) issue (CVE-2009-3696) and an SQL injection vulnerability (CVE-2009-3697). Affected Products: openSUSE 10.3, openSUSE 11.0 - viewvc Update of viewvc to version 1.0.9 fixes a cross-site scripting (XSS) problem and enhances filtering of illegal characters when displaying error messages (CVE-2009-3618, CVE-2009-3619). Affected Products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1 ______________________________________________________________________________ 2) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds none ______________________________________________________________________________ 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.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ______________________________________________________________________________ SUSE Security Announcement Package: MozillaFirefox Announcement ID: SUSE-SA:2009:048 Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2009 17:00:00 +0000 Affected Products: openSUSE 10.3 openSUSE 11.0 openSUSE 11.1 SLE SDK 10 SP2 SLE SDK 10 SP3 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP2 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP3 SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP2 DEBUGINFO SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP2 SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP3 DEBUGINFO SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP3 SLES 11 DEBUGINFO SLE 11 SLED 11 SLES 11 Vulnerability Type: remote code execution Severity (1-10): 8 SUSE Default Package: yes Cross-References: CVE-2009-2404, CVE-2009-2408, CVE-2009-2654 CVE-2009-2662, CVE-2009-2663, CVE-2009-2664 CVE-2009-3069, CVE-2009-3070, CVE-2009-3071 CVE-2009-3072, CVE-2009-3073, CVE-2009-3075 CVE-2009-3076, CVE-2009-3077, CVE-2009-3078 CVE-2009-3079, MFSA 2009-42, MFSA 2009-43 MFSA 2009-44, MFSA 2009-45, MFSA 2009-47 MFSA 2009-48, MFSA 2009-49, MFSA 2009-50 MFSA 2009-51 Content of This Advisory: 1) Security Vulnerability Resolved: Mozilla Firefox security updates Problem Description 2) Solution or Work-Around 3) Special Instructions and Notes 4) Package Location and Checksums 5) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: See SUSE Security Summary Report 6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) Problem Description and Brief Discussion The Mozilla Firefox was updated to current stable versions on all affected Linux products. openSUSE 10.3,11.0 and 11.1: Firefox was updated to the current stable branch version 3.0.14. These updates were already released on September 21st. The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 products were upgraded to Mozilla Firefox 3.5.3, released on September 30th. The SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 Service Pack 2 and 3 were upgraded to Mozilla Firefox 3.5.3, released on October 20th. These updates fix various bugs and security issues: MFSA 2009-47 / CVE-2009-3069 / CVE-2009-3070 / CVE-2009-3071 / CVE-2009-3072 / CVE-2009-3073 / CVE-2009-30 / CVE-2009-3075: Mozilla developers and community members identified and fixed several stability bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these crashes showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. MFSA 2009-48 / CVE-2009-3076: Mozilla security researcher Jesse Ruderman reported that when security modules were added or removed via pkcs11.addmodule or pkcs11.deletemodule, the resulting dialog was not sufficiently informative. Without sufficient warning, an attacker could entice a victim to install a malicious PKCS11 module and affect the cryptographic integrity of the victim's browser. Security researcher Dan Kaminsky reported that this issue had not been fixed in Firefox 3.0 and that under certain circumstances pkcs11 modules could be installed from a remote location. Firefox 3.5 releases are not affected. MFSA 2009-49 / CVE-2009-3077: An anonymous security researcher, via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative, reported that the columns of a XUL tree element could be manipulated in a particular way which would leave a pointer owned by the column pointing to freed memory. An attacker could potentially use this vulnerability to crash a victim's browser and run arbitrary code on the victim's computer. MFSA 2009-50 / CVE-2009-3078: Security researcher Juan Pablo Lopez Yacubian reported that the default Windows font used to render the location bar and other text fields was improperly displaying certain Unicode characters with tall line-height. In such cases the tall line-height would cause the rest of the text in the input field to be scrolled vertically out of view. An attacker could use this vulnerability to prevent a user from seeing the URL of a malicious site. Corrie Sloot also independently reported this issue to Mozilla. MFSA 2009-51 / CVE-2009-3079: Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that the BrowserFeedWriter could be leveraged to run JavaScript code from web content with elevated privileges. Using this vulnerability, an attacker could construct an object containing malicious JavaScript and cause the FeedWriter to process the object, running the malicious code with chrome privileges. Thunderbird does not support the BrowserFeedWriter object and is not vulnerable in its default configuration. Thunderbird might be vulnerable if the user has installed any add-on which adds a similarly implemented feature and then enables JavaScript in mail messages. This is not the default setting and we strongly discourage users from running JavaScript in mail. Also released were SSL certificate handling fixes which required updates to the Mozilla NSS and NSPR libraries. The two security issues fixed there are: CVE-2009-2404 / MFSA 2009-43 : Heap-based buffer overflow in a regular-expression parser in Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.12.3, as used in Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, Evolution, Pidgin, and AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), allows remote SSL servers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) field of an X.509 certificate, related to the cert_TestHostName function. MFSA 2009-42 / CVE-2009-2408: IOActive security researcher Dan Kaminsky reported a mismatch in the treatment of domain names in SSL certificates between SSL clients and the Certificate Authorities (CA) which issue server certificates. In particular, if a malicious person requested a certificate for a host name with an invalid null character in it most CAs would issue the certificate if the requester owned the domain specified after the null, while most SSL clients (browsers) ignored that part of the name and used the unvalidated part in front of the null. This made it possible for attackers to obtain certificates that would function for any site they wished to target. These certificates could be used to intercept and potentially alter encrypted communication between the client and a server such as sensitive bank account transactions. This vulnerability was independently reported to us by researcher Moxie Marlinspike who also noted that since Firefox relies on SSL to protect the integrity of security updates this attack could be used to serve malicious updates. 2) Solution or Work-Around There is no known workaround, please install the update packages. 3) Special Instructions and Notes Please close and restart all running instances of Mozilla Firefox after the update. 4) Package Location and Checksums The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST Online Update (YOU) tool. YOU detects which updates are required and automatically performs the necessary steps to verify and install them. Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this announcement. Then install the packages using the command rpm -Fhv <file.rpm> to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the downloaded RPM package. x86 Platform: openSUSE 11.1:

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 where you saved 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 the 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 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.

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. - silc-toolkit An update of slic-toolkit fixes a stack-based overflow that could be triggered by encoding an ASN.1 OID (CVE-2008-7159) and several format string bugs (CVE-2009-3051, CVE-2008-7160). Affected Products: SLE11, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - open-iscsi The iscsi_discovery tool created predictable temporary files which potentially allowed attackers to overwrite system files (CVE-2009-1297). Also some non-security bugs have been fixed: - synchronize startup settings - fix daemon segfault with CHAP Affected Products: SLE11, SLE10-SP2, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - strongswan,freeswan,openswan A previous fix for a flaw in the ASN.1 parser was incomplete and had to be reworked (CVE-2009-2661). This could lead to crashes of the pluto IKE daemon. Affected Products: SLES9, SLE10-SP2, SLE11, openSUSE 10.3-11.1 - mutt mutt did not properly handle embedded NUL characters in X.509 certificates when comparing host names.

[security-announce] SUSE Security Announcement: TCP Denial of Service (SUSE-SA:2009:047)
by Marcus Meissner 02 Oct '09

02 Oct '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ______________________________________________________________________________ SUSE Security Announcement Package: kernel Announcement ID: SUSE-SA:2009:047 Date: Fri, 02 Oct 2009 10:00:00 +0000 Affected Products: All SUSE Linux and openSUSE products Vulnerability Type: remote denial of service Severity (1-10): 6 SUSE Default Package: yes Cross-References: CVE-2008-4609 FICORA #193744 CERT VU#943657 Content of This Advisory: 1) Security Vulnerability Resolved: TCP/IP denial of service attacks Problem Description 2) Solution or Work-Around 3) Special Instructions and Notes 4) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: Please see SUSE Security Summary Report. 5) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) Problem Description and Brief Discussion Outpost24 AB researchers Robert E. Lee and Jack C. Louis have found TCP/IP denial of service vulnerabilities which allow remote attackers to allocate resources (memory and socket slots) on a targeted system indefinitely and so may cause a denial of the services on the attacked machine. The attack requires the attacker to be able to establish TCP/IP connections on the machine. If all incoming connections are blocked, the system is not affected. The attacks itself are exploiting specific design limitations in the TCP/IP protocol. The upstream Linux kernel developers decided not to release updates at this time, so SUSE also does not plan to release updates to resolve this issue. Refer to the Workarounds section for suggestions on limiting the attack. Further references and information on this issue can be found on the CERT-FI page: https://www.cert.fi/haavoittuvuudet/2008/tcp-vulnerabilities.html And in a generic paper on TCP/IP denial of service attacks: http://www.cpni.gov.uk/Docs/tn-03-09-security-assessment-TCP.pdf SUSE wishes to thank Outpost AB and CERT-FI for reporting these issues. 2) Solution or Work-Around As these attacks look like valid accesses to your internet facing services generally blocking them will not be possible. Options are to by-host limit incoming TCP/IP connections (before they are accepted) or block out sub nets if you see attacks coming from them. With today's botnets this will be difficult as any such blocks could be worked around by attackers. 3) Special Instructions and Notes Denial of service attack patterns these days are mostly flooding using large distributed botnets. Attackers will probably chose these more common methods instead of this more subtle one. ______________________________________________________________________________ 4) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: See SUSE Security Summary Report. ______________________________________________________________________________ 5) 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 where you saved 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 the 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 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. To subscribe, send an e-mail to <opensuse-security-announce+subscribe(a)opensuse.org>. ===================================================================== SUSE's security contact is <security(a)suse.com> or <security(a)suse.de>. The <security(a)suse.de> public key is listed below. ===================================================================== ______________________________________________________________________________ The information in this advisory may be distributed or reproduced, provided that the advisory is not modified in any way. In particular, the clear text signature should show proof of the authenticity of the text.
