-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2006-0020 Package names: clamav, freeradius, kernel, php4 Summary: Multiple vulnerabilities Date: 2006-04-07 Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2 Trustix Secure Linux 3.0 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package description: clamav Clam AntiVirus is a GPL anti-virus toolkit for UNIX. The main purpose of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed with package, which you can use with your own software. freeradius The FreeRADIUS Server Project is a high performance and highly configurable GPL'd free RADIUS server. The server is similar in some respects to Livingston's 2.0 server. While FreeRADIUS started as a variant of the Cistron RADIUS server, they don't share a lot in common any more. It now has many more features than Cistron or Livingston, and is much more configurable. 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. php4 PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also offers built-in database integration for several commercial and non-commercial database management systems, so writing a database-enabled web page with PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The mod_php module enables the Apache web server to understand and process the embedded PHP language in web pages. Problem description: clamav < TSL 3.0 > < TSL 2.2 > - New Upstream - Minor bugfixes done. - SECURITY Fix: Some vulnerabilities have been reported in ClamAV, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS and compromise a vulnerable system. - Damian Put discovered integer overflow error in the PE header parser in "libclamav/pe.c". Successful exploitation requires that the ArchiveMaxFileSize option is disabled. - Some format string errors in the logging handling in "shared/output.c" may be exploited to execute arbitrary code. - David Luyer discovered an out-of-bounds memory access error in the "cli_bitset_test()" function in "ibclamav/others.c" which may be exploited to cause a crash. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the names CVE-2006-1614, CVE-2006-1615 and CVE-2006-1630 to these issues. freeradius < TSL 3.0 > - New upstream. - SECURITY Fix: A vulnerability has been reported in FreeRADIUS caused due to an input validation error in the EAP-MSCHAPv2 state machine. This can be exploited by manipulating the state machine on a client system to bypass server authentication checks. Successful exploitation may allow the attacker to gain network access without requiring knowledge of logon credentials or cause the server to crash. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CVE-2006-1354 to this issue. kernel < TSL 3.0 > - SECURITY Fix: The fill_write_buffer function in sysfs/file.c does not zero terminate a buffer when a length of PAGE_SIZE or more is requested, which might allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by causing an out-of-bounds read. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2006-1055 to this issue. php4 < TSL 2.2 > - SECURITY Fix: A vulnerability has been discovered in PHP, caused due to the "html_entity_decode()" PHP function not being binary safe. This can be exploited to disclose certain part of the memory via a script calling the "html_entity_decode()" function with input controlled by the attacker and where the result is sent to the attacker. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CVE-2006-1490 this issue. 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.
