Ispravljena su dva sigurnosna propusta vezana uz linux-lts-backport-oneiric za Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Spomenuti propusti omogućuju lokalnom napadaču otkrivanje osjetljivih informacija i izvođenje napada uskraćivanjem usluge.
Problemi nastaju kao posljedica pogrešaka u radu pojedinih mrežnih upravljačkih uređaja koji podržavaju TSO (TCP segment offload) i grešaka u implementaciji RDS priključnica.
Posljedica:
Ranjivost je moguće iskoristiti za izvođenje DoS napada i čitanje privilegiranih informacija.
Rješenje:
Svim korisnicima se savjetuje korištenje službene nadogradnje.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1575-1
September 19, 2012
linux-lts-backport-oneiric vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in the kernel.
Software Description:
- linux-lts-backport-oneiric: Linux kernel backport from Oneiric
Details:
Ben Hutchings reported a flaw in the Linux kernel with some network drivers
that support TSO (TCP segment offload). A local or peer user could exploit
this flaw to to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2012-3412)
Jay Fenlason and Doug Ledford discovered a bug in the Linux kernel
implementation of RDS sockets. A local unprivileged user could potentially
use this flaw to read privileged information from the kernel.
(CVE-2012-3430)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
linux-image-3.0.0-26-generic 3.0.0-26.42~lucid1
linux-image-3.0.0-26-generic-pae 3.0.0-26.42~lucid1
linux-image-3.0.0-26-server 3.0.0-26.42~lucid1
linux-image-3.0.0-26-virtual 3.0.0-26.42~lucid1
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.
