RedHat: RHSA-2022-1540-01 Important: Xmlrpc-C Remote Exec Risk

An update for xmlrpc-c is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2 Extended Update Support. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 ==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: xmlrpc-c security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2022:1540-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2022:1540 Issue date: 2022-04-26 CVE Names: CVE-2022-25235 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: An update for xmlrpc-c is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2 Extended Update Support. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat CodeReady Linux Builder EUS (v. 8.2) - aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS EUS (v. 8.2) - aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 3. Description: XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol that uses XML to encode its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism. The xmlrpc-c packages provide a network protocol to allow a client program to make a simple RPC (remote procedure call) over the Internet. It converts an RPC into an XML document, sends it to a remote server using HTTP, and gets back the response in XML. Security Fix(es): * expat: Malformed 2- and 3-byte UTF-8 sequences can lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-25235) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section. 4.Solution: For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5.

Red Hat 6: RHSA-2013:0884-01 Moderate: libtirpc Crash Risk

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate [More...]. ==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Moderate: libtirpc security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2013:0884-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2013:0884.html Issue date: 2013-05-30 CVE Names: CVE-2013-1950 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated libtirpc packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop Optional (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Node (v. 6) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Node Optional (v. 6) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6) - i386, ppc64, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 6) - i386, ppc64, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 3. Description: These packages provide a transport-independent RPC (remote procedure call) implementation. A flaw was found in the way libtirpc decoded RPC requests. A specially-crafted RPC request could cause libtirpc to attempt to free a buffer provided by an application using the library, even when the buffer was not dynamically allocated. This could cause an application using libtirpc, such as rpcbind, to crash. (CVE-2013-1950) Red Hat would like to thank Michael Armstrong forreporting this issue. Users of libtirpc should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. All running applications using libtirpc 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. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 948378 - CVE-2013-1950 libtirpc: invalid pointer free leads to rpcbind daemon crash 6.

Critical Samba Security Update for Scientific Linux SL5.x and SL6.x

Important: samba and samba3x security update. Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2012 16:57:05 -0500 Reply-To: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Patrick Riehecky Subject: Security ERRATA Important: samba and samba3x on SL5.x, SL6.x i386/x86_64 Comments: To: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Synopsis: Important: samba and samba3x security update Issue Date: 2012-04-30 CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-2111 Samba is an open-source implementation of the Server Message Block (SMB) or Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol, which allows PC-compatible machines to share files, printers, and other information. A flaw was found in the way Samba handled certain Local Security Authority (LSA) Remote Procedure Calls (RPC). An authenticated user could use this flaw to issue an RPC call that would modify the privileges database on the Samba server, allowing them to steal the ownership of files and directories that are being shared by the Samba server, and create, delete, and modify user accounts, as well as other Samba server administration tasks. (CVE-2012-2111) Users of Samba are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. After installing this update, the smb service will be restarted automatically.
