Detail
| Problem Description: Updated iscsi-initiator-utils packages that fix a security flaw in open-iscsi are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, x86_64 3. Problem description: The iscsi package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol, as well as the utility programs used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over Internet Protocol networks. Olaf Kirch discovered two flaws in open-iscsi. A local attacker could use these flaws to cause the server daemon to stop responding, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-3099, CVE-2007-3100). All users of open-iscsi should upgrade to this updated package which resolves these issues. Note: This issue did not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, or 4. open-iscsi is available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 as a Technology Preview. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_58_10188 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 243719 - CVE-2007-3099 dos flaws in open-iscsi (CVE-2007-3100) |
