Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2005-0022
Package name: kernel, squid
Summary: Security issues
Date: 2005-05-13
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 1.5
Trustix Secure Linux 2.1
Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
Trustix Operating System - Enterprise Server 2
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
kernel:
The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
Trustix Secure Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic
functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation,
device input and output, etc.
squid:
Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients,
supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. Unlike traditional
caching software, Squid handles all requests in a single,
non-blocking, I/O-driven process. Squid keeps meta data and especially
hot objects cached in RAM, caches DNS lookups, supports non-blocking
DNS lookups, and implements negative caching of failed requests.
Problem description:
kernel:
A locally exploitable flaw has been found by Paul Starzetz in the
Linux ELF binary format loader's core dump function that allows
Local users to trigger a BUG() in the kernel.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2005-1263 to this issue.
squid:
Security Fix: A vulnerability has been reported in Squid, which can be
exploited by malicious people to spoof DNS lookups.
The vulnerability is caused due to an unspecified error in the DNS client
when handling DNS responses and can be exploited to spoof DNS lookups.
Action:
We recommend that all systems with this package installed be upgraded.
Please note that if you do not need the functionality provided by this
package, you may want to remove it from your system.
