Ubuntu je objavio reviziju preporuke s oznakom USN-1080-2 koja se odnosi na ranjivosti jezgre operacijskog sustava. Izvorna preporuka opisuje sljedeće nepravilnosti: neodgovarajuća implementacija RDS i PPv4 protokola, oslobađanje memorije, inicijalizacija strukture TIPC sučelja, dereferenciranje NULL pokazivača, itd. Napadač može iskorištavanjem propusta izvesti DoS napad, pokrenuti proizvoljan programski kod, povećati prava na sustavu te ostvariti pristup osjetljivim informacijama. Revizija je objavljena zbog nadopune informacija o pravilnoj instalaciji dostupnih programskih rješenja koja se savjetuju na korištenje.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1080-2 March 02, 2011
linux-ec2 vulnerabilities
CVE-2010-3865, CVE-2010-3875, CVE-2010-3876, CVE-2010-3877,
CVE-2010-3880, CVE-2010-4248, CVE-2010-4343, CVE-2010-4346,
CVE-2010-4526, CVE-2010-4527, CVE-2010-4649, CVE-2011-1044
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
linux-image-2.6.32-313-ec2 2.6.32-313.26
After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make
all the necessary changes.
ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have
been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and
reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. If
you use linux-restricted-modules, you have to update that package as
well to get modules which work with the new kernel version. Unless you
manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic,
linux-server, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically
perform this as well.
Details follow:
USN-1080-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. This update provides
the corresponding updates for the Linux kernel for use with EC2.
Original advisory details:
Thomas Pollet discovered that the RDS network protocol did not check
certain iovec buffers. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the
system or possibly execute arbitrary code as the root user. (CVE-2010-3865)
Vasiliy Kulikov discovered that the Linux kernel X.25 implementation did
not correctly clear kernel memory. A local attacker could exploit this to
read kernel stack memory, leading to a loss of privacy. (CVE-2010-3875)
Vasiliy Kulikov discovered that the Linux kernel sockets implementation did
not properly initialize certain structures. A local attacker could exploit
this to read kernel stack memory, leading to a loss of privacy.
(CVE-2010-3876)
Vasiliy Kulikov discovered that the TIPC interface did not correctly
initialize certain structures. A local attacker could exploit this to read
kernel stack memory, leading to a loss of privacy. (CVE-2010-3877)
Nelson Elhage discovered that the Linux kernel IPv4 implementation did not
properly audit certain bytecodes in netlink messages. A local attacker
could exploit this to cause the kernel to hang, leading to a denial of
service. (CVE-2010-3880)
It was discovered that multithreaded exec did not handle CPU timers
correctly. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading
to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4248)
Krishna Gudipati discovered that the bfa adapter driver did not correctly
initialize certain structures. A local attacker could read files in /sys to
crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4343)
Tavis Ormandy discovered that the install_special_mapping function could
bypass the mmap_min_addr restriction. A local attacker could exploit this
to mmap 4096 bytes below the mmap_min_addr area, possibly improving the
chances of performing NULL pointer dereference attacks. (CVE-2010-4346)
It was discovered that the ICMP stack did not correctly handle certain
unreachable messages. If a remote attacker were able to acquire a socket
lock, they could send specially crafted traffic that would crash the
system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2010-4526)
Dan Rosenberg discovered that the OSS subsystem did not handle name
termination correctly. A local attacker could exploit this crash the system
or gain root privileges. (CVE-2010-4527)
Dan Carpenter discovered that the Infiniband driver did not correctly
handle certain requests. A local user could exploit this to crash the
system or potentially gain root privileges. (CVE-2010-4649, CVE-2011-1044)
