openSUSE Security Update: Linux Kernel: security and bugfix update ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2010:0205-1 Rating: important References: #474773 #492961 #510449 #544760 #555747 #558269 #561078 #565962 #566634 #568319 #570314 #574654 #576927 #577747 #577753 #578064 #578222 #578550 #578708 #579076 #579219 #579439 #579989 #580799 #581271 #581718 #582552 #582907 #584320 Cross-References: CVE-2009-4031 CVE-2010-0410 CVE-2010-0415 CVE-2010-0622 CVE-2010-0623 Affected Products: openSUSE 11.2 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that solves 5 vulnerabilities and has 24 fixes is now available. It includes one version update. Description: This update of the openSUSE 11.2 kernel contains a lot of bug and security fixes. Following security issues were fixed: CVE-2010-0622: The wake_futex_pi function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel does not properly handle certain unlock operations for a Priority Inheritance (PI) futex, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) and possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving modification of the futex value from user space. CVE-2010-0623: The futex_lock_pi function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel does not properly manage a certain reference count, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via vectors involving an unmount of an ext3 filesystem. CVE-2010-0415: The do_pages_move function in mm/migrate.c in the Linux kernel does not validate node values, which allows local users to read arbitrary kernel memory locations, cause a denial of service (OOPS), and possibly have unspecified other impact by specifying a node that is not part of the kernel's node set. CVE-2010-0410: drivers/connector/connector.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and system crash) by sending the kernel many NETLINK_CONNECTOR messages. CVE-2009-4031: The do_insn_fetch function in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the x86 emulator in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel tries to interpret instructions that contain too many bytes to be valid, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (increased scheduling latency) on the host OS via unspecified manipulations related to SMP support. This update also contains a large rollup of fixes for the rt2860 and rt3090 wireless drivers from the mainline kernel. Special Instructions and Notes: Please reboot the system after installing this update. Patch Instructions: To install this openSUSE Security Update use YaST online_update.
