Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to a denial of service or privilege escalation. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following
problems:
-CVE-XXXX-XXXX
+CVE-2008-3527
- XXXX
+ Tavis Ormandy reported a local DoS and potential privilege escalation
+ in the Virtual Dynamic Shared Objects (vDSO) implementation.
-CVE-XXXX-XXX
+CVE-2008-3528
- XXXX
+ Eugene Teo reported a local DoS issue in the ext2 and ext3
+ filesystems. Local users who have been granted the privileges
+ necessary to mount a filesystem would be able to craft a corrupted
+ filesystem that causes the kernel to output error messages in an
+ infinite loop.
+
+CVE-2008-4554
+
+ Milos Szeredi reported that the usage of splice() on files opened
+ with O_APPEND allows users to write to the file at arbitrary
+ offsets, enabling a bypass of possible assumed semantics of the
+ O_APPEND flag.
+
+CVE-2008-4576
+
+ Vlad Yasevich reported an issue in the SCTP subsystem that may
+ allow remote users to cause a local DoS by triggering a kernel
+ oops.
+
+CVE-2008-4933
+
+ Eric Sesterhenn reported a local DoS issue in the hfsplus
+ filesystem. Local users who have been granted the privileges
+ necessary to mount a filesystem would be able to craft a corrupted
+ filesystem that causes the kernel to overrun a buffer, resulting
+ in a system oops or memory corruption.
+
+CVE-2008-4934
+
+ Eric Sesterhenn reported a local DoS issue in the hfsplus
+ filesystem. Local users who have been granted the privileges
+ necessary to mount a filesystem would be able to craft a corrupted
+ filesystem that results in a kernel oops due to an unchecked
+ return value.
+
+CVE-2008-5025
+
+ Eric Sesterhenn reported a local DoS issue in the hfs filesystem.
+ Local users who have been granted the privileges necessary to
+ mount a filesystem would be able to craft a filesystem with a
+ corrupted catalog name length, resulting in a system oops or
+ memory corruption.
+
+CVE-2008-5029
+
+ Andrea Bittau reported a DoS issue in the unix socket subsystem
+ that allows a local user to cause memory corruption, resulting in
+ a kernel panic.
+
+CVE-2008-5079
+
+ Hugo Dias reported a DoS condition in the ATM subsystem
+ that can be triggered by a local user by calling the svc_listen
+ function twice on the same socket and reading /proc/net/atm/*vc.
+
+CVE_2008-5182
+
+ Al Viro reported race conditions in the inotify subsystem that may
+ allow local users to acquire elevated privileges.
+
+CVE-2008-5300
+
+ Dann Frazier reported a DoS condition that allows local users to
+ cause the out of memory handler to kill off privileged processes
+ or trigger soft lockups due to a starvation issue in the unix
+ socket subsystem.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1.
