______________________________________________________________________________

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.

   - OpenOffice_org
     This update of OpenOffice.org fixes potential buffer overflow in EMF
     parser code (enhwmf.cxx, emfplus.cxx). Additionally Secunia reported an
     integer underflow (CVE-2009-0200) and a buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0201)
     that could be triggered while parsing Word documents.
     
     Also provides the maintenance update to OpenOffice.org-3.1.1.
     
     Details about all upstream changes can be found at
     http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.1.1.html
     
     Released for product: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, NLD9, SLE10, SLE11

   - dnsmasq
     This update fixes a buffer overflow in the TFTP server code of dnsmasq.
     Please note that the TFTP server is disabled by default.

     Released for product: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLE11

   - gnutls
     This update of gnutls improves the verification of the domain/subject
     names in a SSL certificate. CVE-2009-2730 has been assigned to this
     issue.

     Released for product: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLE10, SLE11

   - ia32el
     A 32bit x86 user program could crash the Itanium IA64 kernel in the
     IA 32 (Intel 32bit) emulation. (CVE-2009-2707)

     Released for product: SLE10
     
     Updateing IA32EL to 7042_7022, the same version as shipped on SLES 10
     SP3, fixes this problem.

   - ib-bonding-kmp-rt/kernel-rt/ofed
     This patch updates the SLERT10 SP2 kernel to Update 7 to address
     multiple issues:
     
     - Lots of HR Timer fixes and improvements.
     
     The complete list of changes can be seen in the rpm changelog.
     
     It also fixes several security issues, some of the critical:
     
     CVE-2009-2692: A missing NULL pointer check in the socket sendpage
     function can be used by local attackers to gain root privileges.
     
     CVE-2009-2406: A kernel stack overflow when mounting eCryptfs filesystems
     in parse_tag_11_packet() was fixed. Code execution might be possible
     of ecryptfs is in use.
     
     CVE-2009-2407: A kernel heap overflow when mounting eCryptfs filesystems
     in parse_tag_3_packet() was fixed. Code execution might be possible
     of ecryptfs is in use.

     Released for product: SLERT10

   - libxml
     This update of libxml does not use pointers after they were freed
     anymore. (CVE-2009-2416) 
     Additionally a stack-based buffer overflow was fixed while parsing the
     root XML document. (CVE-2009-2414)

     Released for product: openSUSE 10.3-11.1, SLES9, SLE10, SLE11

   - opera
     Opera version 10 includes at least security fixes for an XML
     denial-of-service bug (CVE-2009-1234) and the "SSL tampering" attack
     (CVE-2009-2059, CVE-2009-2063, CVE-2009-2067, CVE-2009-2070).

     Released for product: openSUSE 10.3-11.1

   - perl-IO-Socket-SSL
     This update of perl-IO-Socket-SSL improves the hostname checking of the
     SSL certificate. (CVE-2009-3024)

     Released for product: openSUSE 11.1, SLE11

   - xen
     xend did not properly enforce access control of the xenstore
     directory tree, therefore allowing guest VM's to write there. 
     This could lead to security problems if other applications such as
     libvirt are not prepared for untrusted data in the xenstore
     directory (CVE-2008-4405).

     Released for product: openSUSE 11.0

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.
            To subscribe, send an e-mail to
                .

    opensuse-security-announce@opensuse.org
        -   SUSE's announce-only mailing list.
            Only SUSE's security announcements are sent to this list.
            To subscribe, send an e-mail to
                .
