Detail
Problem Description: An update for ocaml is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client Optional (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 7) - ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 7) - x86_64 3. Description: OCaml is a high-level, strongly-typed, functional, and object-oriented programming language from the ML family of languages. The ocaml packages contain two batch compilers (a fast bytecode compiler and an optimizing native-code compiler), an interactive top level system, parsing tools (Lex, Yacc, Camlp4), a replay debugger, a documentation generator, and a comprehensive library. Security Fix(es): * OCaml versions 4.02.3 and earlier have a runtime bug that, on 64-bit platforms, causes size arguments to internal memmove calls to be sign-extended from 32- to 64-bits before being passed to the memmove function. This leads to arguments between 2GiB and 4GiB being interpreted as larger than they are (specifically, a bit below 2^64), causing a buffer overflow. Further, arguments between 4GiB and 6GiB are interpreted as 4GiB smaller than they should be, causing a possible information leak. (CVE-2015-8869) 4. Solution: For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 1332090 - CVE-2015-8869 ocaml: sizes arguments are sign-extended from 32 to 64 bits |
