______________________________________________________________________________

1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities

   To avoid flooding mailing lists with SUSE Security Announcements for minor
   issues, SUSE Security releases weekly summary reports for the low profile
   vulnerability fixes. 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.

   - memcached
     This update of memcached fixes a signedness problem which may lead to
     a buffer too small to hold all data received from the network, this may
     allow arbitrary remote code execution. (CVE-2009-2415)
     Additionally an information leak was fixed (CVE-2009-1494,CVE-2009-1255)
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLE11

   - libtiff/libtiff3
     This update of libtiff fixes a buffer underflow in LZWDecodeCompat
     (CVE-2009-2285).
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES9, SLE10, SLE11, NLD9, OES

   - nagios
     A shell injection bug in nagios' statuswml.cgi CGI script has been fixed.
     CVE-2009-2288 has been assigned to this issue.
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLE10, SLE11

   - libsndfile
     This update of libsndfile fixes a heap-based buffer overflow in function
     voc_read_header() (CVE-2009-1788) and another heap-based buffer overflow
     in aiff_read_header() (CVE-2009-1791).
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLE11

   - gaim/fitch
     Several bugfixes were done for the Instant Messenger Pidgin:
     - Malformed responses to file transfers could cause a buffer overflow in
       pidgin (CVE-2009-1373) and specially crafted packets could crash it
       (CVE-2009-1375).
     - The fix against integer overflows in the msn protocol handling was
       incomplete (CVE-2009-1376).
     - Fixed misparsing ICQ message as SMS DoS (CVE-2009-1889, Pidgin#9483).
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES9, SLE10, SLE11, NLD9

   - open-, strong-, freeswan
     Two vulnerabilities in the openswan ASN.1 parser (when handling RDNs,
     UTCTIME and GENERALIZEDTIME strings) could lead to remote crashes of
     the pluto daemon (CVE-2009-2185).
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES9, SLE10, SLE11, NLD9

   - libapr-util1
     This update of libapr-util1 fixes a memory consumption bug in the XML
     parser that can cause a remote denial-of-service vulnerability in app-
     lications using APR (WebDAV for example) (CVE-2009-1955). Additionally
     a one byte buffer overflow in function apr_brigade_vprintf()
     (CVE-2009-1956) and buffer underflow in function apr_strmatch_precompile()
     (CVE-2009-0023) was fixed too. Depending on the application using this
     function it can lead to remote denial of service or information leakage.
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLE10, SLE11

   - websphere-as_ce
     This update of WebSphere fixes the following vulnerabilities:
     - GERONIMO-3838: close potential denial of service attack
     - CVE-2008-5518: fix Apache Geronimo web administration console
       directory traversal vulnerabilities.
     - CVE-2009-0038:  fix Apache Geronimo web administration console
       XSS vulnerabilities.
     - CVE-2009-0039: fix Apache Geronimo web administration console
       XSRF vulnerabilities.
     - CVE-2009-0781: Samples: Fix Apache Tomcat cross-site scripting
       vulnerability.
     Affected products: SLE10, SLE11

   - libxml2
     This update of libxml2 does not use pointers after they were freed
     anymore. (CVE-2009-2416)
     Affected products: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES9, SLE10, SLE11, NLD9

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 

    replacing  with the name of the file containing the announcement.
    The output for a valid signature looks like:

      gpg: Signature made  using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9
      gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team "

    where  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 

    to verify the signature of the package, replacing  with the
    filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it
    contains a valid signature from build@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@opensuse.org
        -   General Linux and SUSE security discussion.
            All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list.
