SUSE Security Update: Security update for Linux kernel ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2011:0984-2 Rating: important References: #225091 #602150 #635880 #649625 #663678 #685226 #692784 #693513 #694315 #699354 #699916 #701355 #703155 #703786 #704361 #704957 #705433 #705903 #706696 #707332 #707644 #708160 #708376 #708730 #710352 #711752 #711941 #712316 #712366 Cross-References: CVE-2010-3881 CVE-2011-1776 CVE-2011-2495 CVE-2011-2700 CVE-2011-2909 CVE-2011-2918 Affected Products: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 for VMware SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension 11 SP1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 SP1 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that solves 6 vulnerabilities and has 23 fixes is now available. It includes one version update. Description: The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 1 kernel was updated to 2.6.32.45 and fixes various bugs and security issues. The following security issues have been fixed: * CVE-2011-1776: Timo Warns reported an issue in the Linux implementation for GUID partitions. Users with physical access could gain access to sensitive kernel memory by adding a storage device with a specially crafted corrupted invalid partition table. * CVE-2010-3881: The second part of this fix was not yet applied to our kernel: arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel before2.6.36.2 does not initialize certain structure members, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via read operations on the /dev/kvm device. * CVE-2011-2495: The /proc/PID/io interface could be used by local attackers to gain information on other processes like number of password characters typed or similar. * CVE-2011-2700: A small buffer overflow in the radio driver si4713-i2c was fixed that could potentially used by local attackers to crash the kernel or potentially execute code. * CVE-2011-2909: A kernel information leak in the comedi driver from kernel to userspace was fixed. * CVE-2011-2918: In the perf framework software event overflows could deadlock or delete an uninitialized timer. Security Issue references: * CVE-2011-1776 * CVE-2010-3881 * CVE-2011-2495 * CVE-2011-2700 * CVE-2011-2909 * CVE-2011-2918 Indications: Everyone using the Linux Kernel on x86_64 architecture should update.
