high Nessus Plugin ID 75893

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

Two security bugfixes in libcgroup1 were done :

libcgroup suffered from a heap based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-1006).

The cgrulesengd daemon did not verify the origin of netlink messages, allowing local users to spoof events (CVE-2011-1022).

Solution

Update the affected libcgroup-devel packages.
