Several security issues were fixed in the kernel.. =========================================================================Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1976-1 September 30, 2013 linux vulnerabilities ========================================================================= A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the kernel. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel Details: An information leak was discovered in the handling of ICMPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) messages in the Linux kernel's IPv6 network stack. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (excessive retries and address-generation outage), and consequently obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2013-0343) Kees Cook discovered flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kernel. A physically proximate attacker could exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a specially crafted device that provides an invalid Report ID. (CVE-2013-2888) Kees Cook discovered a flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kerenl when CONFIG_HID_PANTHERLORD is enabled. A physically proximate attacker could cause a denial of service (heap out-of-bounds write) via a specially crafted device. (CVE-2013-2892) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: linux-image-2.6.32-52-386 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-generic 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-generic-pae 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-ia64 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-lpia 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-powerpc 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-powerpc-smp 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-powerpc64-smp 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-preempt 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-server 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-sparc64 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-sparc64-smp 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-versatile 2.6.32-52.114 linux-image-2.6.32-52-virtual 2.6.32-52.114 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. If you use linux-restricted-modules, you have to update that package as well to get modules which work with the new kernel version. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-server, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.

Description: OpenJPEG is an open source library for reading and writing image files in JPEG 2000 format. An input validation flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way OpenJPEG handled the tile number and size in an image tile header. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted image file that, when decoded using an application linked against OpenJPEG, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrarycode with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2012-3358) OpenJPEG allocated insufficient memory when encoding JPEG 2000 files from input images that have certain color depths. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted image file that, when opened in an application linked against OpenJPEG (such as image_to_j2k), would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2009-5030) Users of OpenJPEG should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain patches to correct these issues. All running applications using OpenJPEG must be restarted for the update to take effect. 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/knowledge/articles/11258 5.
