Firefox/glibc Updates for Slackware

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 10/30/2010 01:28 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

The following two security updates are available for Slackware Linux:

- glibc (SSA:2010-301-01)
- mozilla-firefox (SSA:2010-301-02)




[slackware-security] glibc (SSA:2010-301-01)
New glibc packages are available for Slackware 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 13.0, 13.1, and -current to fix a security issue.

Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/glibc-2.11.1-i486-5_slack13.1.txz: Rebuilt.
Patched "The GNU C library dynamic linker will dlopen arbitrary DSOs
during setuid loads." This security issue allows a local attacker to
gain root by specifying an unsafe DSO in the library search path to be
used with a setuid binary in LD_AUDIT mode.
Bug found by Tavis Ormandy (with thanks to Ben Hawkes and Julien Tinnes).
For more information, see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3856
http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2010/Oct/344
(* Security fix *)
patches/packages/glibc-i18n-2.11.1-i486-5_slack13.1.txz: Rebuilt.
patches/packages/glibc-profile-2.11.1-i486-5_slack13.1.txz: Rebuilt.
patches/packages/glibc-solibs-2.11.1-i486-5_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded.
(* Security fix *)
patches/packages/glibc-zoneinfo-2.11.1-noarch-5_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded.
Rebuilt to tzcode2010n and tzdata2010n.
