3. Description:

Avahi is an implementation of the DNS Service Discovery and Multicast DNS
specifications for Zero Configuration Networking. It facilitates service
discovery on a local network. Avahi and Avahi-aware applications allow you
to plug your computer into a network and, with no configuration, view other
people to chat with, view printers to print to, and find shared files on
other computers.

A flaw was found in the way the Avahi daemon (avahi-daemon) processed
Multicast DNS (mDNS) packets with an empty payload. An attacker on the
local network could use this flaw to cause avahi-daemon on a target system
to enter an infinite loop via an empty mDNS UDP packet. (CVE-2011-1002)

This update also fixes the following bug:

* Previously, the avahi packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 were not
compiled with standard RPM CFLAGS; therefore, the Stack Protector and
Fortify Source protections were not enabled, and the debuginfo packages did
not contain the information required for debugging. This update corrects
this issue by using proper CFLAGS when compiling the packages. (BZ#629954,
BZ#684276)

All users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch to correct these issues. After installing the update,
avahi-daemon will be restarted automatically.

4. 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. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

667187 - CVE-2011-1002 avahi: daemon infinite loop triggered by an empty UDP packet (CVE-2010-2244 fix regression)
684276 - [PATCH] avahi debuginfo useless

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6: RHSA-2011:0779-02 Avahi Vulnerability Infinite Loop Risk CVE-2011-1003

red hat
Calendar Grey May 19, 2011
Dist Redhat Esm H88
An update fixes a moderate security issue with the avahi packages on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Patch it now.
Updated avahi packages that fix one security issue and one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

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. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259

Summary

Avahi is an implementation of the DNS Service Discovery and Multicast DNS specifications for Zero Configuration Networking. It facilitates service discovery on a local network. Avahi and Avahi-aware applications allow you to plug your computer into a network and, with no configuration, view other people to chat with, view printers to print to, and find shared files on other computers.
A flaw was found in the way the Avahi daemon (avahi-daemon) processed Multicast DNS (mDNS) packets with an empty payload. An attacker on the local network could use this flaw to cause avahi-daemon on a target system to enter an infinite loop via an empty mDNS UDP packet. (CVE-2011-1002)
This update also fixes the following bug:
* Previously, the avahi packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 were not compiled with standard RPM CFLAGS; therefore, the Stack Protector and Fortify Source protections were not enabled, and the debuginfo packages did not contain the information required for debugging. This update corrects this issue by using proper CFLAGS when compiling the packages. (BZ#629954, BZ#684276)
All users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct these issues. After installing the update, avahi-daemon will be restarted automatically.
