TITLE

Linux Kernel of net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c Vulnerability in which important information is obtained

DESCRIPTION

The do_replace function in net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not ensure that a certain name field ends with a '\0' character, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to replace a table, and then reading a modprobe command line. The Linux kernel is prone to multiple local information-disclosure vulnerabilities. Local attackers can exploit these issues to obtain sensitive information that may lead to further attacks. Hitachi JP1 products are prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because they fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. The following products are affected: JP1/IT Resource Management - Manager JP1/IT Service Level Management - Manager. 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. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, noarch, ppc, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, noarch, x86_64 3. (CVE-2011-1093, Important) * Multiple buffer overflow flaws were found in the Linux kernel's Management Module Support for Message Passing Technology (MPT) based controllers. (CVE-2011-1079, Moderate) * Missing error checking in the way page tables were handled in the Xen hypervisor implementation could allow a privileged guest user to cause the host, and the guests, to lock up. (CVE-2011-1166, Moderate) * A flaw was found in the way the Xen hypervisor implementation checked for the upper boundary when getting a new event channel port. (CVE-2011-1763, Moderate) * The start_code and end_code values in "/proc/[pid]/stat" were not protected. (CVE-2011-1078, Low) * A missing validation of a null-terminated string data structure element in the do_replace() function could allow a local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1080, Low) * A buffer overflow flaw in the DEC Alpha OSF partition implementation in the Linux kernel could allow a local attacker to cause an information leak by mounting a disk that contains specially-crafted partition tables. (CVE-2011-1163, Low) * Missing validations of null-terminated string data structure elements in the do_replace(), compat_do_replace(), do_ipt_get_ctl(), do_ip6t_get_ctl(), and do_arpt_get_ctl() functions could allow a local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1170, CVE-2011-1171, CVE-2011-1172, Low) * A heap overflow flaw in the Linux kernel's EFI GUID Partition Table (GPT) implementation could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service by mounting a disk that contains specially-crafted partition tables. (CVE-2011-1577, Low) Red Hat would like to thank Dan Rosenberg for reporting CVE-2011-1494 and CVE-2011-1495; Vasiliy Kulikov for reporting CVE-2011-1079, CVE-2011-1078, CVE-2011-1080, CVE-2011-1170, CVE-2011-1171, and CVE-2011-1172; Kees Cook for reporting CVE-2011-0726; and Timo Warns for reporting CVE-2011-1163 and CVE-2011-1577. This update also fixes several bugs. Documentation for these bug fixes will be available shortly from the Technical Notes document linked to in the References section. Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues, and fix the bugs noted in the Technical Notes. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Do not use "rpm -Uvh" as that will remove the running kernel binaries from your system. You may use "rpm -e" to remove old kernels after determining that the new kernel functions properly on your system.

(CVE-2011-3363) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: linux-image-2.6.38-12-generic 2.6.38-12.51~lucid1 linux-image-2.6.38-12-generic-pae 2.6.38-12.51~lucid1 linux-image-2.6.38-12-server 2.6.38-12.51~lucid1 linux-image-2.6.38-12-virtual 2.6.38-12.51~lucid1 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. If you use linux-restricted-modules, you have to update that package as well to get modules which work with the new kernel version. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-server, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.

CVE-2011-1476 Dan Rosenberg reported issues in the Open Sound System MIDI interface that allow local users to cause a denial of service. This issue does not affect official Debian Linux image packages as they no longer provide support for OSS. However, custom kernels built from Debians linux-source-2.6.32 may have enabled this configuration and would therefore be vulnerable. CVE-2011-1477 Dan Rosenberg reported issues in the Open Sound System driver for cards that include a Yamaha FM synthesizer chip. This issue does not affect official Debian Linux image packages as they no longer provide support for OSS. However, custom kernels built from Debians linux-source-2.6.32 may have enabled this configuration and would therefore be vulnerable. CVE-2011-1478 Ryan Sweat reported an issue in the Generic Receive Offload (GRO) support in the Linux networking subsystem. If an interface has GRO enabled and is running in promiscuous mode, remote users can cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) by sending packets on an unknown VLAN. CVE-2011-1493 Dan Rosenburg reported two issues in the Linux implementation of the Amateur Radio X.25 PLP (Rose) protocol. CVE-2011-1494 Dan Rosenberg reported an issue in the /dev/mpt2ctl interface provided by the driver for LSI MPT Fusion SAS 2.0 controllers. On default Debian installations this is not exploitable as this interface is only accessible to root. CVE-2011-1495 Dan Rosenberg reported two additional issues in the /dev/mpt2ctl interface provided by the driver for LSI MPT Fusion SAS 2.0 controllers. Local users can obtain elevated privileges and ready arbitrary kernel memory by using specially crafted ioctl calls. On default Debian installations this is not exploitable as this interface is only accessible to root. CVE-2011-1585 Jeff Layton reported an issue in the Common Internet File System (CIFS). CVE-2011-1598 Dave Jones reported an issue in the Broadcast Manager Controller Area Network (CAN/BCM) protocol that may allow local users to cause a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a denial of service.

CVE-2011-1748 Oliver Kartkopp reported an issue in the Controller Area Network (CAN) raw socket implementation which permits ocal users to cause a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a denial of service. CVE-2011-1759 Dan Rosenberg reported an issue in the support for executing "old ABI" binaries on ARM processors. Local users can obtain elevated privileges due to insufficient bounds checking in the semtimedop system call. CVE-2011-1767 Alexecy Dobriyan reported an issue in the GRE over IP implementation. CVE-2011-1770 Dan Rosenberg reported an issue in the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP). CVE-2011-2022 Vasiliy Kulikov reported an issue in the Linux support for AGP devices.
