Linux-Mandrake Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________
Package name: kernel
Date: April 17th, 2001
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2001:037
Affected versions: 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, Corporate Server 1.0.1
________________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A number of security problems have been found in the Linux kernels
prior to the latest 2.2.19 kernel. Following is a list of problems
based on the 2.2.19 release notes as found on http://www.linux.org.uk/
- binfmt_misc used user pages directly
- the CPIA driver had an off-by-one error in the buffer code which made
it possible for users to write into kernel memory
- the CPUID and MSR drivers had a problem in the module unloading code
which could cause a system a crash if they were set to automatically
load and unload
- there was a possible hang in the classifier code
- the getsockopt and setsockopt system calls did not handle sign bits
correctly which made a local DoS and other attacks possible
- the sysctl system call did not handle sign bits correctly which
allowed a user to write in kernel memory
- ptrace/exec races that could give a local user extra privileges
- possible abuse of a boundary case in the sockfilter code
- SYSV shared memory code could overwrite recently freed memory which
might cause problems
- the packet lengh checks in the masquerading code were a bit lax
(probably not exploitable)
- some x86 assembly bugs caused the wrong number of bytes to be copied
- a local user could deadlock the kernel due to bugs in the UDP port
allocation.
All of these problems are corrected in the 2.2.19 kernel and it is
highly recommended that all Linux-Mandrake users upgrade their systems
to this kernel.
It is also recommended that you download the necessary RPMs and upgrade
manually by following these steps:
- type: rpm -ivh kernel-2.2.19-4.1mdk.i586.rpm
- type: mv kernel-2.2.19-4.1mdk.i586.rpm /tmp
- type: rpm -Fvh *.rpm
- type: mkinitrd -f --ifneeded /boot/initrd-2.2.19-4.1mdk
2.2.19-4.1mdk
- type: ln -sf /boot/initrd-2.2.19-4.1mdk /boot/initrd.img
- edit /etc/lilo.conf and double-check the options
- type: /sbin/lilo -v
Replace the kernel revision noted in the above instructions with those
from the packages you downloaded. You will then be able to reboot and
use the new kernel and remove the older kernel when you are comfortable
using the upgraded one.
________________________________________________________________________
Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package. You can do this with the command:
rpm --checksig package.rpm
You can get the GPG public key of the Linux-Mandrake Security Team at
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS
If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG
signature is performed automatically for you.

To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.
If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".
You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites
listed at:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3.
Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory.
For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for
Linux-Mandrake 7.2, look for it in "updates/7.2/RPMS/". Updated source
RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download
them.
Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.
