Detail
Problem Description: Updated NetworkManager packages that fix two security issues 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: RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 3. Description: NetworkManager is a network link manager that attempts to keep a wired or wireless network connection active at all times. An information disclosure flaw was found in NetworkManager's D-Bus interface. A local attacker could leverage this flaw to discover sensitive information, such as network connection passwords and pre-shared keys. (CVE-2009-0365) A potential denial of service flaw was found in NetworkManager's D-Bus interface. A local user could leverage this flaw to modify local connection settings, preventing the system's network connection from functioning properly. (CVE-2009-0578) Red Hat would like to thank Ludwig Nussel for reporting these flaws responsibly. Users of NetworkManager should upgrade to these updated packages which contain backported patches to correct these issues. 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/docs/DOC-11259 5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 487722 - CVE-2009-0365 NetworkManager: GetSecrets disclosure 487752 - CVE-2009-0578 NetworkManager: local users can modify the connection settings |

Description: | It was discovered that network-manager-applet, a network management framework, lacks some dbus restriction rules, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information. If you have locally modified the /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-applet.conf file, then please make sure that you merge the changes from this fix when asked during upgrade. For the stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 0.6.6-4+lenny1 of network-manager-applet. For the oldstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 0.6.4-6+etch1 of network-manager. For the testing distribution and the unstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 0.7.0.99-1 of network-manager-applet. We recommend that you upgrade your network-manager and network-manager-applet packages accordingly. | ||
