The openSUSE 11.3 kernel was updated to 2.6.34.8 to fix various bugs and security issues.

Following security issues have been fixed: CVE-2011-1493: In the rose networking stack, when parsing the FAC_NATIONAL_DIGIS facilities field, it was possible for a remote host to provide more digipeaters than expected, resulting in heap corruption.

  - A missing boundary check was found in the dvb_ca_ioctl()     function in the Linux kernel's av7110 module. On systems     that use old DVB cards that require the av7110 module, a     local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a     denial of service or escalate their privileges.
    (CVE-2011-0521, Important)

  - A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel's     InfiniBand implementation set up new connections. This     could allow a remote user to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2011-0695, Important)

  - A heap overflow flaw in the iowarrior_write() function     could allow a user with access to an IO-Warrior USB     device, that supports more than 8 bytes per report, to     cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges.
    (CVE-2010-4656, Moderate)

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux Ethernet bridge     implementation handled certain IGMP (Internet Group     Management Protocol) packets. A local, unprivileged user     on a system that has a network interface in an Ethernet     bridge could use this flaw to crash that system     (CVE-2011-0716, Moderate)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Generic     Receive Offload (GRO) functionality in the Linux     kernel's networking implementation. If both GRO and     promiscuous mode were enabled on an interface in a     virtual LAN (VLAN), it could result in a denial of     service when a malformed VLAN frame is received on that     interface. (CVE-2011-1478, Moderate)

  - A missing initialization flaw in the Linux kernel could     lead to an information leak. (CVE-2010-3296, Low)

  - A missing security check in the Linux kernel's     implementation of the install_special_mapping() function     could allow a local, unprivileged user to bypass the     mmap_min_addr protection mechanism. (CVE-2010-4346, Low)

  - A logic error in the orinoco_ioctl_set_auth() function     in the Linux kernel's ORiNOCO wireless extensions     support implementation could render TKIP countermeasures     ineffective when it is enabled, as it enabled the card     instead of shutting it down. (CVE-2010-4648, Low)

  - A missing initialization flaw was found in the     ethtool_get_regs() function in the Linux kernel's     ethtool IOCTL handler. A local user who has the     CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this flaw to cause an     information leak. (CVE-2010-4655, Low)

  - An information leak was found in the Linux kernel's     task_show_regs() implementation. On IBM S/390 systems, a     local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to read     /proc/[PID]/status files, allowing them to discover the     CPU register values of processes. (CVE-2011-0710, Low)

This update also fixes several bugs.

CVE-2011-1182: Local attackers could send signals to their programs that looked like coming from the kernel, potentially gaining privileges in the context of setuid programs.

CVE-2011-1082: The epoll subsystem in Linux did not prevent users from creating circular epoll file structures, potentially leading to a denial of service (kernel deadlock).

CVE-2011-1477: Due to a failure to validate user-supplied indexes in the driver for Yamaha YM3812 and OPL-3 chips, a specially crafted ioctl request could have been sent to /dev/sequencer, resulting in reading and writing beyond the bounds of heap buffers, and potentially allowing privilege escalation.

CVE-2010-3877: The get_name function in net/tipc/socket.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain structure, which allowed local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading a copy of this structure.

CVE-2010-3705: The sctp_auth_asoc_get_hmac function in net/sctp/auth.c in the Linux kernel did not properly validate the hmac_ids array of an SCTP peer, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and panic) via a crafted value in the last element of this array.

CVE-2011-0711: A stack memory information leak in the xfs FSGEOMETRY_V1 ioctl was fixed.

CVE-2011-0712: Multiple buffer overflows in the caiaq Native Instruments USB audio functionality in the Linux kernel might have allowed attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long USB device name, related to (1) the snd_usb_caiaq_audio_init function in sound/usb/caiaq/audio.c and (2) the snd_usb_caiaq_midi_init function in sound/usb/caiaq/midi.c.

CVE-2010-1173: The sctp_process_unk_param function in net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c in the Linux kernel, when SCTP is enabled, allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via an SCTPChunkInit packet containing multiple invalid parameters that require a large amount of error data.

CVE-2010-4075: The uart_get_count function in drivers/serial/serial_core.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a certain structure member, which allowed local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a TIOCGICOUNT ioctl call.

CVE-2010-4076: The rs_ioctl function in drivers/char/amiserial.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a certain structure member, which allowed local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a TIOCGICOUNT ioctl call.

CVE-2010-4243: fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel did not enable the OOM Killer to assess use of stack memory by arrays representing the (1) arguments and (2) environment, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted exec system call, aka an 'OOM dodging issue,' a related issue to CVE-2010-3858.

CVE-2010-4648: Fixed cryptographic weakness potentially leaking information to remote (but physically nearby) users in the orinoco wireless driver.

CVE-2010-4527: The load_mixer_volumes function in sound/oss/soundcard.c in the OSS sound subsystem in the Linux kernel incorrectly expected that a certain name field ends with a '\0' character, which allowed local users to conduct buffer overflow attacks and gain privileges, or possibly obtain sensitive information from kernel memory, via a SOUND_MIXER_SETLEVELS ioctl call.

CVE-2010-4668: The blk_rq_map_user_iov function in block/blk-map.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a zero-length I/O request in a device ioctl to a SCSI device, related to an unaligned map. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-4163.

CVE-2010-4650: A kernel buffer overflow in the cuse server module was fixed, which might have allowed local privilege escalation. However only CUSE servers could exploit it and /dev/cuse is normally restricted to root.

CVE-2010-4649: Integer overflow in the ib_uverbs_poll_cq function in drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_cmd.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large value of a certain structure member.

CVE-2010-3850: The ec_dev_ioctl function in net/econet/af_econet.c in the Linux kernel did not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability, which allowed local users to bypass intended access restrictions and configure econet addresses via an SIOCSIFADDR ioctl call.

CVE-2010-3699: The backend driver in Xen 3.x allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service via a kernel thread leak, which prevents the device and guest OS from being shut down or create a zombie domain, causes a hang in zenwatch, or prevents unspecified xm commands from working properly, related to (1) netback, (2) blkback, or (3) blktap.
