TITLE

glibc vulnerable to stack buffer overflow in DNS resolver

DESCRIPTION

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the (1) send_dg and (2) send_vc functions in the libresolv library in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted DNS response that triggers a call to the getaddrinfo function with the AF_UNSPEC or AF_INET6 address family, related to performing "dual A/AAAA DNS queries" and the libnss_dns.so.2 NSS module. GNU glibc is an open source C language compiler released under the LGPL license agreement. It is an implementation of the C library in the Linux operating system. An attacker can use the vulnerability to launch an attack on a Linux host or related devices by constructing a malicious DNS service or using a man-in-the-middle attack, which results in remote code execution and can be obtained. User terminal control. This update also fixes the following bugs: * The dynamic loader has been enhanced to allow the loading of more shared libraries that make use of static thread local storage. While static thread local storage is the fastest access mechanism it may also prevent the shared library from being loaded at all since the static storage space is a limited and shared process-global resource. Applications which would previously fail with "dlopen: cannot load any more object with static TLS" should now start up correctly. (BZ#1291270) * A bug in the POSIX realtime support would cause asynchronous I/O or certain timer API calls to fail and return errors in the presence of large thread-local storage data that exceeded PTHREAD_STACK_MIN in size (generally 16 KiB). The bug in librt has been corrected and the impacted APIs no longer return errors when large thread-local storage data is present in the application. - Upgrade HP OneView to patch version 2.00.07. - HP StoreVirtual VSA Software 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4130 600GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4130 600GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 1TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 450GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 1TB MDL China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 450GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 900GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 FC 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 FC 900GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 2TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 3TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 450GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 600GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4630 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 600GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 FC 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 450GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 900GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 1TB MDL SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 3TB MDL SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 450GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4335 China Hybrid Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4335 Hybrid Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 4TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4130 600GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4130 600GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 1TB MDL China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 1TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 1TB MDL SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 450GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 450GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 450GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 900GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 900GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 FC 900GB China SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4330 FC 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4335 China Hybrid SAN Solution 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4335 China Hybrid Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4335 Hybrid SAN Solution 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4335 Hybrid Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 2TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 3TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 3TB MDL SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 450GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 450GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 4TB MDL SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 600GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4530 600GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4630 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 600GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 600GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 900GB SAS Storage/S-Buy 12.6 - HP StoreVirtual 4730 FC 900GB SAS Storage 12.6 BACKGROUND CVSS Base Metrics ================= Reference, CVSS V3 Score/Vector, CVSS V2 Score/Vector CVE-2015-7547 5.6 CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L 6.8 (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P) Information on CVSS is documented in HPE Customer Notice HPSN-2008-002 here: https://h20564.www2.hpe.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/kb/docDisplay/?docI d=emr_na-c01345499 RESOLUTION HPE has made the following software updates available to resolve the vulnerability with glibc for all of the impacted HPE StoreVirtual products. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Critical: glibc security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:0225-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-0225.html Issue date: 2016-02-16 CVE Names: CVE-2015-7547 ===================================================================== 1.

Description: The glibc packages provide the standard C libraries (libc), POSIX thread libraries (libpthread), standard math libraries (libm), and the Name Server Caching Daemon (nscd) used by multiple programs on the system. Without these libraries, the Linux system cannot function correctly. A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the way the libresolv library performed dual A/AAAA DNS queries. Note: this issue is only exposed when libresolv is called from the nss_dns NSS service module. (CVE-2015-7547) This issue was discovered by the Google Security Team and Red Hat. All glibc users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. 4.

Release Date: 2016-02-18 Last Updated: 2016-02-18 Potential Security Impact: Remote Arbitrary Code Execution Source: Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Product Security Response Team VULNERABILITY SUMMARY A security vulnerability in glibc has been addressed with HPE Helion Eucalyptus Node Controller and other Helion Eucalyptus components. The vulnerability could be exploited remotely resulting in arbitrary execution of code. - Helion Eucalyptus Node Controller (NC) components are confirmed to be affected by the vulnerability. Other Helion Eucalyptus components and pre-bundled service EMIs do not directly expose the vulnerability, but because glibc is a commonly used library on Linux, the exact exposure is hard to determine. Any software performing domain name resolution is potentially vulnerable. References: - CVE-2015-7547 - PSRT110035 SUPPORTED SOFTWARE VERSIONS*: ONLY impacted versions are listed. - HPE Helion Eucalyptus 4.2.1 and earlier - HPE Helion Eucalyptus Service EMIs for Load Balancing and Imaging services package "eucalyptus-service-image-1.48-0.87.99" and earlier BACKGROUND CVSS 2.0 Base Metrics =========================================================== Reference Base Vector Base Score CVE-2015-7547 (AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:C/A:P) 6.1 =========================================================== Information on CVSS is documented in HP Customer Notice: HPSN-2008-002 RESOLUTION HPE has made the following software updates and workaround information available to resolve the vulnerability with glibc for HPE Helion Eucalyptus. + All hosts running HPE Helion Eucalyptus services should be upgraded to the latest glibc. Updated glibc packages are available for RHEL and CentOS: https://access.redhat.com/articles/2161461 **RHEL Note:** After following the guidelines for RHEL, a reboot is the safest and recommended way to ensure that updates takes effect for all services. + New Helion Eucalyptus Service EMIs will be made available soon in the Eucalyptus software repositories at: http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/software/eucalyptus/4.2/ **Note:** This security bulletin will be revised when those updates are available. Until Helion Eucalyptus EMI updates are available, the following workaround is available to update the instances launched from eucalyptus-service-image-1.48-0.87.99 and earlier to the latest glibc packages. **Workaround:** As a cloud administrator: 1) create an update-glibc script with the following content: #! /bin/bash yum update -y glibc 2) set the following cloud properties to use that script on instance start: euctl services.imaging.worker.init_script=@update-glibc euctl services.loadbalancing.worker.init_script=@update-glibc This script will be automatically executed for each of the new instances started from the service image. For instances that are already running, the cloud administrator will need to terminate them and start again for the script to take effect. More specifically, for the Load Balancing service, the cloud admin needs to find all instances running under the "(eucalyptus)loadbalancing" account: # euare-accountlist | grep loadbalancing (eucalyptus)loadbalancing <accnt_id> # euca-describe-instances verbose | grep <accnt_id> And terminate them using euca-terminate-instances. New updated instances will be started automatically after that. For the Imaging Service, the imaging worker needs to be terminated and started again: # esi-manage-stack -a delete imaging # esi-manage-stack -a create imaging HISTORY Version:1 (rev.1) - 17 February 2016 Initial release Third Party Security Patches: Third party security patches that are to be installed on systems running Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) software products should be applied in accordance with the customer's patch management policy.

CVE-2015-7547 The Google Security Team and Red Hat discovered that the glibc host name resolver function, getaddrinfo, when processing AF_UNSPEC queries (for dual A/AAAA lookups), could mismanage its internal buffers, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow and arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability affects most applications which perform host name resolution using getaddrinfo, including system services. CVE-2015-8776 Adam Nielsen discovered that if an invalid separated time value is passed to strftime, the strftime function could crash or leak information. Applications normally pass only valid time information to strftime; no affected applications are known. CVE-2015-8778 Szabolcs Nagy reported that the rarely-used hcreate and hcreate_r functions did not check the size argument properly, leading to a crash (denial of service) for certain arguments. No impacted applications are known at this time. CVE-2015-8779 The catopen function contains several unbound stack allocations (stack overflows), causing it the crash the process (denial of service). No applications where this issue has a security impact are currently known. While it is only necessary to ensure that all processes are not using the old glibc anymore, it is recommended to reboot the machines after applying the security upgrade. For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in version 2.19-18+deb8u3. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed in version 2.21-8
