1. Summary:
Updated kernel packages that fix several security issues in the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 4 kernel are now available.
This security advisory has been rated as having important security impact
by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, noarch, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, noarch, x86_64
3. Problem description:
The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system.
These new kernel packages contain fixes for the security issues
described below:
* a flaw in the IPv6 implementation that allowed a local user to cause a
denial of service (infinite loop and crash) (CVE-2005-2973, important)
* a flaw in the bridge implementation that allowed a remote user to
cause forwarding of spoofed packets via poisoning of the forwarding
table with already dropped frames (CVE-2005-3272, moderate)
* a flaw in the atm module that allowed a local user to cause a denial
of service (panic) via certain socket calls (CVE-2005-3359, important)
* a flaw in the NFS client implementation that allowed a local user to
cause a denial of service (panic) via O_DIRECT writes (CVE-2006-0555,
important)
* a difference in "sysretq" operation of EM64T (as opposed to Opteron)
processors that allowed a local user to cause a denial of service
(crash) upon return from certain system calls (CVE-2006-0741 and
CVE-2006-0744, important)
* a flaw in the keyring implementation that allowed a local user to
cause a denial of service (OOPS) (CVE-2006-1522, important)
* a flaw in IP routing implementation that allowed a local user to cause
a denial of service (panic) via a request for a route for a multicast IP
(CVE-2006-1525, important)
* a flaw in the SCTP-netfilter implementation that allowed a remote user
to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) (CVE-2006-1527, important)
* a flaw in the sg driver that allowed a local user to cause a denial of
service (crash) via a dio transfer to memory mapped (mmap) IO space
(CVE-2006-1528, important)
* a flaw in the threading implementation that allowed a local user to
cause a denial of service (panic) (CVE-2006-1855, important)
* two missing LSM hooks that allowed a local user to bypass the LSM by
using readv() or writev() (CVE-2006-1856, moderate)
* a flaw in the virtual memory implementation that allowed local user to
cause a denial of service (panic) by using the lsof command
(CVE-2006-1862, important)
* a directory traversal vulnerability in smbfs that allowed a local user
to escape chroot restrictions for an SMB-mounted filesystem via "..\\"
sequences (CVE-2006-1864, moderate)
* a flaw in the ECNE chunk handling of SCTP that allowed a remote user
to cause a denial of service (panic) (CVE-2006-2271, moderate)
* a flaw in the handling of COOKIE_ECHO and HEARTBEAT control chunks of
SCTP that allowed a remote user to cause a denial of service (panic)
(CVE-2006-2272, moderate)
* a flaw in the handling of DATA fragments of SCTP that allowed a remote
user to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion and crash)
(CVE-2006-2274, moderate)
All Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 users are advised to upgrade their kernels
to the packages associated with their machine architectures and
configurations as listed in this erratum.

1. Summary:
Updated kernel packages that fix several security issues in the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 4 kernel are now available.
This security advisory has been rated as having important security impact
by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, noarch, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, noarch, x86_64
3. Problem description:
The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system.
These new kernel packages contain fixes for the security issues
described below:
* a flaw in the IPv6 implementation that allowed a local user to cause a
denial of service (infinite loop and crash) (CVE-2005-2973, important)
* a flaw in the bridge implementation that allowed a remote user to
cause forwarding of spoofed packets via poisoning of the forwarding
table with already dropped frames (CVE-2005-3272, moderate)
* a flaw in the atm module that allowed a local user to cause a denial
of service (panic) via certain socket calls (CVE-2005-3359, important)
* a flaw in the NFS client implementation that allowed a local user to
cause a denial of service (panic) via O_DIRECT writes (CVE-2006-0555,
important)
* a difference in "sysretq" operation of EM64T (as opposed to Opteron)
processors that allowed a local user to cause a denial of service
(crash) upon return from certain system calls (CVE-2006-0741 and
CVE-2006-0744, important)
* a flaw in the keyring implementation that allowed a local user to
cause a denial of service (OOPS) (CVE-2006-1522, important)
* a flaw in IP routing implementation that allowed a local user to cause
a denial of service (panic) via a request for a route for a multicast IP
(CVE-2006-1525, important)
* a flaw in the SCTP-netfilter implementation that allowed a remote user
to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) (CVE-2006-1527, important)
* a flaw in the sg driver that allowed a local user to cause a denial of
service (crash) via a dio transfer to memory mapped (mmap) IO space
(CVE-2006-1528, important)
* a flaw in the threading implementation that allowed a local user to
cause a denial of service (panic) (CVE-2006-1855, important)
* two missing LSM hooks that allowed a local user to bypass the LSM by
using readv() or writev() (CVE-2006-1856, moderate)
* a flaw in the virtual memory implementation that allowed local user to
cause a denial of service (panic) by using the lsof command
(CVE-2006-1862, important)
* a directory traversal vulnerability in smbfs that allowed a local user
to escape chroot restrictions for an SMB-mounted filesystem via "..\\"
sequences (CVE-2006-1864, moderate)
* a flaw in the ECNE chunk handling of SCTP that allowed a remote user
to cause a denial of service (panic) (CVE-2006-2271, moderate)
* a flaw in the handling of COOKIE_ECHO and HEARTBEAT control chunks of
SCTP that allowed a remote user to cause a denial of service (panic)
(CVE-2006-2272, moderate)
* a flaw in the handling of DATA fragments of SCTP that allowed a remote
user to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion and crash)
(CVE-2006-2274, moderate)
All Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 users are advised to upgrade their kernels
to the packages associated with their machine architectures and
configurations as listed in this erratum.
