+
+Several local and remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux
+kernel that may lead to a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary
+code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
+following problems:
+
+CVE-2006-3468
+
+ James McKenzie discovered a vulnerability in the NFS subsystem, allowing
+ remote denial of service if an ext3 filesystem is exported.
+
+CVE-2004-2660
+
+ IWAMOTO Toshihiro discovered a direct IO memory leak that a malicious
+ local user could use to create a local denial of service.
+
+CVE-2005-4798
+
+ Assar discovered a buffer overlow in the NFS readlink handling code
+ that would allows a malicious remote server to cause a denail of
+ service (crash) using a long symlink.
+
+CVE-2006-2935
+
+ Diego Calleja Garcia discovered a potential buffer overflow in the
+ dvd_read_bca() function that could allow aribrary code execution via
+ a malicious CDROM device
+
+CVE-2006-2936
+
+ Ian Abbott and Guillaume Autran provided a fix for a vulnerability in
+ the ftdio_sio driver that could allow a local user to initiate a denial
+ of service attack by writing lots of data to the serial port and
+ consuming all of system memory.
+
+CVE-2006-1052
+
+ Stephen Smalley contributed a fix for a bug in SELinux that allows local
+ users with ptrace permission to change the tracer SID to the SID of
+ another process.
+
+CVE-2006-1343
+
+ Pavel Kankovsky discovered that sockaddr_in.sin_zero is not zeroed
+ during certain operations returning IPv4 socket names which allows
+ potentially sensitive memory to be leaked to userspace.
+
+CVE-2006-1528
+
+ Douglas Gilbert reported a bug in the sg driver that allows local
+ users to oops the kernel by performing dio transfers from the sg
+ driver to memory mapped IO space.
+
+CVE-2006-1855
+
+ Mattia Belletti noticed that certain debugging code left in the
+ choose_new_parent routine allows local users to cause a denial of
+ service (panic).
+
+CVE-2006-1856
+
+ Kostik Belousov discovered a missing LSM file_permission check in the
+ readv and writev functions which might allow attackers to bypass intended
+ access restrictions.
+
+CVE-2006-2444
+
+ Patrick McHardy reported a memory corruption bug in snmp_trap_decode that
+ could be used by remote attackers to crash a system.
+
+CVE-2006-2446
+
+ A race between the kfree_skb and __skb_unlink functions allows remote
+ users to crash a system.
+
+CVE-2006-3745
+
+ Wei Wang discovered a vulnerability in the SCTP subsystem that can be
+ exploited for local privilege escalation.
+
+
+CVE-2006-4535
+
+ David Miller reported a problem with the fix for CVE-2006-3745 that allows
+ local users to crash the system using via an SCTP socket with a certain
+ SO_LINGER value.
+
+CVE-2006-4093
+
+ Olof Johansson reported a vulnerability on PPC970 systems that allows
+ local users to hang a machine related to the HID0 attention enable at
+ boot time.
+
+CVE-2006-4145
+
+ Colin discovered a bug in the UDF filesystem that allows local users to
+ hang a system when truncating files.
+
+The following matrix explains which kernel version for which architecture
+fix the problems mentioned above:
+
+ Debian 3.1 (sarge)
+ Source 2.6.8-16sarge5
+ Alpha architecture 2.6.8-16sarge5
+ AMD64 architecture 2.6.8-16sarge5
+ HP Precision architecture 2.6.8-6sarge5
+ Intel IA-32 architecture 2.6.8-16sarge5
+ Intel IA-64 architecture 2.6.8-14sarge5
+ Motorola 680x0 architecture 2.6.8-4sarge5
+ PowerPC architecture 2.6.8-12sarge5
+ IBM S/390 architecture 2.6.8-5sarge5
+ Sun Sparc architecture 2.6.8-15sarge5
+
+The following matrix lists additional packages that were rebuilt for
+compatibility with or to take advantage of this update:
+
+ Debian 3.1 (sarge)
+ fai-kernels 1.9.1sarge4
+
+We recommend that you upgrade your kernel package immediately and reboot
+the machine. If you have built a custom kernel from the kernel source
+package, you will need to rebuild to take advantage of these fixes.
+
+Upgrade Instructions
+--------------------
+
+wget url
+ will fetch the file for you
+dpkg -i file.deb
+ will install the referenced file.
+
+If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
+sources.list as given below:
+
+apt-get update
+ will update the internal database
+apt-get upgrade
+ will install corrected packages
+
+You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
+footer to the proper configuration.
+
+
+Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 alias sarge
+--------------------------------
+
+
+ These files will probably be moved into the stable distribution on
+ its next update.
