After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to effect the necessary changes.

ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change (except for Ubuntu 6.06) 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:

It was discovered that the AX.25 network subsystem did not correctly check integer signedness in certain setsockopt calls. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. Ubuntu 9.10 was not affected. (CVE-2009-2909)

Jan Beulich discovered that the kernel could leak register contents to 32-bit processes that were switched to 64-bit mode. A local attacker could run a specially crafted binary to read register values from an earlier process, leading to a loss of privacy. (CVE-2009-2910)

Dave Jones discovered that the gdth SCSI driver did not correctly validate array indexes in certain ioctl calls. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system or gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2009-3080)

Eric Dumazet and Jiri Pirko discovered that the TC and CLS subsystems would leak kernel memory via uninitialized structure members. A local attacker could exploit this to read several bytes of kernel memory, leading to a loss of privacy. (CVE-2009-3228, CVE-2009-3612)

Earl Chew discovered race conditions in pipe handling. A local attacker could exploit anonymous pipes via /proc/*/fd/ and crash the system or gain root privileges. (CVE-2009-3547)

Dave Jones and Francois Romieu discovered that the r8169 network driver could be made to leak kernel memory. A remote attacker could send a large number of jumbo frames until the system memory was exhausted, leading to a denial of service. Ubuntu 9.10 was not affected. (CVE-2009-3613).

Ben Hutchings discovered that the ATI Rage 128 video driver did not correctly validate initialization states. A local attacker could make specially crafted ioctl calls to crash the system or gain root privileges. (CVE-2009-3620)

Tomoki Sekiyama discovered that Unix sockets did not correctly verify namespaces. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a system hang, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2009-3621)

J. Bruce Fields discovered that NFSv4 did not correctly use the credential cache. A local attacker using a mount with AUTH_NULL authentication could exploit this to crash the system or gain root privileges. Only Ubuntu 9.10 was affected. (CVE-2009-3623)

Alexander Zangerl discovered that the kernel keyring did not correctly reference count. A local attacker could issue a series of specially crafted keyring calls to crash the system or gain root privileges. Only Ubuntu 9.10 was affected. (CVE-2009-3624)

David Wagner discovered that KVM did not correctly bounds-check CPUID entries. A local attacker could exploit this to crash the system or possibly gain elevated privileges. Ubuntu 6.06 and 9.10 were not affected. (CVE-2009-3638)

Title: DSA-1928-1 linux-2.6.24 -- privilege escalation/denial of service/sensitive memory leak
Description: Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, sensitive memory leak or privilege escalation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2009-2846 Michael Buesch noticed a typing issue in the eisa-eeprom driver for the hppa architecture. Local users could exploit this issue to gain access to restricted memory. CVE-2009-2847 Ulrich Drepper noticed an issue in the do_sigalstack routine on 64-bit systems. This issue allows local users to gain access to potentially sensitive memory on the kernel stack. CVE-2009-2848 Eric Dumazet discovered an issue in the execve path, where the clear_child_tid variable was not being properly cleared. Local users could exploit this issue to cause a denial of service. CVE-2009-2849 Neil Brown discovered an issue in the sysfs interface to md devices. When md arrays are not active, local users can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. CVE-2009-2903 Mark Smith discovered a memory leak in the appletalk implementation. When the appletalk and ipddp modules are loaded, but no ipddp"N" device is found, remote attackers can cause a denial of service by consuming large amounts of system memory. CVE-2009-2908 Loic Minier discovered an issue in the eCryptfs filesystem. A local user can cause a denial of service by causing a dentry value to go negative. CVE-2009-2909 Arjan van de Ven discovered an issue in the AX.25 protocol implementation. A specially crafted call to setsockopt can result in a denial of service. CVE-2009-2910 Jan Beulich discovered the existence of a sensitive kernel memory leak. Systems running the "amd64" kernel do not properly sanitise registers for 32-bit processes. CVE-2009-3001 Jiri Slaby fixed a sensitive memory leak issue in the ANSI/IEEE 802.2 LLC implementation. This is not exploitable in the Debian lenny kernel as root privileges are required to exploit this issue. CVE-2009-3002 Eric Dumazet fixed several sensitive memory leaks in the IrDA, X.25 PLP, NET/ROM, Acorn Econet/AUN, and Controller Area Network implementations. Local users can exploit these issues to gain access to kernel memory. CVE-2009-3228 Eric Dumazet reported an instance of uninitialised kernel memory in the network packet scheduler. Local users may be able to exploit this issue to read the contents of sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2009-3238 Linus Torvalds provided a change to the get_random_int function to increase its randomness. CVE-2009-3286 Eric Paris discovered an issue with the NFSv4 server implementation. When an O_EXCL create fails, files may be left with corrupted permissions, possibly granting unintentional privileges to other local users. CVE-2009-3547 Earl Chew discovered a NULL pointer dereference issue in the pipe_rdwr_open function which can be used by local users to gain elevated privileges. CVE-2009-3612 Jiri Pirko discovered a typo in the initialisation of a structure in the netlink subsystem that may allow local users to gain access to sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2009-3613 Alistair Strachan reported an issue in the r8169 driver. Remote users can cause a denial of service by transmitting a large amount of jumbo frames. CVE-2009-3620 Ben Hutchings discovered an issue in the DRM manager for ATI Rage 128 graphics adapters. Local users may be able to exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. CVE-2009-3621 Tomoki Sekiyama discovered a deadlock condition in the UNIX domain socket implementation. Local users can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. For the oldstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.24-6~etchnhalf.9etch1. We recommend that you upgrade your linux-2.6.24 packages. Note: Debian "etch" includes linux kernel packages based upon both the 2.6.18 and 2.6.24 linux releases. All known security issues are carefully tracked against both packages and both packages will receive security updates until security support for Debian "etch" concludes. However, given the high frequency at which low-severity security issues are discovered in the kernel and the resource requirements of doing an update, lower severity 2.6.18 and 2.6.24 updates will typically release in a staggered or "leap-frog" fashion.

Title: DSA-1927-1 linux-2.6 -- privilege escalation/denial of service/sensitive memory leak
Description: Notice: Debian 5.0.4, the next point release of Debian "lenny", will include a new default value for the mmap_min_addr tunable. This change will add an additional safeguard against a class of security vulnerabilities known as "NULL pointer dereference" vulnerabilities, but it will need to be overridden when using certain applications. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2009-3228 Eric Dumazet reported an instance of uninitialised kernel memory in the network packet scheduler. Local users may be able to exploit this issue to read the contents of sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2009-3238 Linus Torvalds provided a change to the get_random_int function to increase its randomness. CVE-2009-3547 Earl Chew discovered a NULL pointer dereference issue in the pipe_rdwr_open function which can be used by local users to gain elevated privileges. CVE-2009-3612 Jiri Pirko discovered a typo in the initialisation of a structure in the netlink subsystem that may allow local users to gain access to sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2009-3620 Ben Hutchings discovered an issue in the DRM manager for ATI Rage 128 graphics adapters. Local users may be able to exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. CVE-2009-3621 Tomoki Sekiyama discovered a deadlock condition in the UNIX domain socket implementation. Local users can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. CVE-2009-3638 David Wagner reported an overflow in the KVM subsystem on i386 systems. This issue is exploitable by local users with access to the /dev/kvm device file. For the stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.26-19lenny2. For the oldstable distribution, these problems, where applicable, will be fixed in updates to linux-2.6 and linux-2.6.24. We recommend that you upgrade your linux-2.6 and user-mode-linux packages. Note: Debian carefully tracks all known security issues across every linux kernel package in all releases under active security support. However, given the high frequency at which low-severity security issues are discovered in the kernel and the resource requirements of doing an update, updates for lower priority issues will normally not be released for all kernels at the same time. Rather, they will be released in a staggered or "leap-frog" fashion. The following matrix lists additional source packages that were rebuilt for compatibility with or to take advantage of this update: Debian 5.0 user-mode-linux 2.6.26-1um-2+19lenny2

Title: DSA-1915-1 linux-2.6 -- privilege escalation/denial of service/sensitive memory leak
Description: Notice: Debian 5.0.4, the next point release of Debian "lenny", will include a new default value for the mmap_min_addr tunable. This change will add an additional safeguard against a class of security vulnerabilities known as "NULL pointer dereference" vulnerabilities, but it will need to be overridden when using certain applications. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2009-2695 Eric Paris provided several fixes to increase the protection provided by the mmap_min_addr tunable against NULL pointer dereference vulnerabilities. CVE-2009-2903 Mark Smith discovered a memory leak in the appletalk implementation. When the appletalk and ipddp modules are loaded, but no ipddp"N" device is found, remote attackers can cause a denial of service by consuming large amounts of system memory. CVE-2009-2908 Loic Minier discovered an issue in the eCryptfs filesystem. A local user can cause a denial of service by causing a dentry value to go negative. CVE-2009-2909 Arjan van de Ven discovered an issue in the AX.25 protocol implementation. A specially crafted call to setsockopt can result in a denial of service. CVE-2009-2910 Jan Beulich discovered the existence of a sensitive kernel memory leak. Systems running the "amd64" kernel do not properly sanitise registers for 32-bit processes. CVE-2009-3001 Jiri Slaby fixed a sensitive memory leak issue in the ANSI/IEEE 802.2 LLC implementation. This is not exploitable in the Debian lenny kernel as root privileges are required to exploit this issue. CVE-2009-3002 Eric Dumazet fixed several sensitive memory leaks in the IrDA, X.25 PLP, NET/ROM, Acorn Econet/AUN, and Controller Area Network implementations. Local users can exploit these issues to gain access to kernel memory. CVE-2009-3286 Eric Paris discovered an issue with the NFSv4 server implementation. When an O_EXCL create fails, files may be left with corrupted permissions, possibly granting unintentional privileges to other local users. CVE-2009-3290 Jan Kiszka noticed that the kvm_emulate_hypercall function in KVM does not prevent access to MMU hypercalls from ring 0, which allows local guest OS users to cause a denial of service and read or write guest kernel memory. CVE-2009-3613 Alistair Strachan reported an issue in the r8169 driver. Remote users can cause a denial of service by transmitting a large amount of jumbo frames. For the stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.26-19lenny1. For the oldstable distribution, these problems, where applicable, will be fixed in updates to linux-2.6 and linux-2.6.24. We recommend that you upgrade your linux-2.6 and user-mode-linux packages.

Title: DSA-1929-1 linux-2.6 -- privilege escalation/denial of service/sensitive memory leak
Description: Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, sensitive memory leak or privilege escalation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2009-1883 Solar Designer discovered a missing capability check in the z90crypt driver or s390 systems. This vulnerability may allow a local user to gain elevated privileges. CVE-2009-2909 Arjan van de Ven discovered an issue in the AX.25 protocol implementation. A specially crafted call to setsockopt can result in a denial of service. CVE-2009-3001 Jiri Slaby fixed a sensitive memory leak issue in the ANSI/IEEE 802.2 LLC implementation.

CVE-2009-3621 Tomoki Sekiyama discovered a deadlock condition in the UNIX domain socket implementation. Local users can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. For the oldstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.18.dfsg.1-26etch1. We recommend that you upgrade your linux-2.6, fai-kernels, and user-mode-linux packages. Note: Debian "etch" includes linux kernel packages based upon both the 2.6.18 and 2.6.24 linux releases. All known security issues are carefully tracked against both packages and both packages will receive security updates until security support for Debian "etch" concludes. However, given the high frequency at which low-severity security issues are discovered in the kernel and the resource requirements of doing an update, lower severity 2.6.18 and 2.6.24 updates will typically release in a staggered or "leap-frog" fashion. The following matrix lists additional source packages that were rebuilt for compatibility with or to take advantage of this update: Debian 4.0 fai-kernels 1.17+etch.26etch1 user-mode-linux 2.6.18-1um-2etch.26etch1

Title: DSA-1915 linux-2.6 -- privilege escalation/denial of service/sensitive memory leak
Description: Notice: Debian 5.0.4, the next point release of Debian "lenny", will include a new default value for the mmap_min_addr tunable. This change will add an additional safeguard against a class of security vulnerabilities known as "NULL pointer dereference" vulnerabilities, but it will need to be overridden when using certain applications. Additional information about this change, including instructions for making this change locally in advance of 5.0.4 (recommended), can be found at: http://wiki.debian.org/mmap_min_addr. Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, sensitive memory leak or privilege escalation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: Eric Paris provided several fixes to increase the protection provided by the mmap_min_addr tunable against NULL pointer dereference vulnerabilities. Mark Smith discovered a memory leak in the appletalk implementation. When the appletalk and ipddp modules are loaded, but no ipddp "N" device is found, remote attackers can cause a denial of service by consuming large amounts of system memory. Loic Minier discovered an issue in the eCryptfs filesystem. A local user can cause a denial of service (kernel oops) by causing a dentry value to go negative. Arjan van de Ven discovered an issue in the AX.25 protocol implementation. A specially crafted call to setsockopt() can result in a denial of service (kernel oops). Jan Beulich discovered the existence of a sensitive kernel memory leak. Systems running the "amd64" kernel do not properly sanitise registers for 32-bit processes. Jiri Slaby fixed a sensitive memory leak issue in the ANSI/IEEE 802.2 LLC implementation. This is not exploitable in the Debian lenny kernel as root privileges are required to exploit this issue. Eric Dumazet fixed several sensitive memory leaks in the IrDA, X.25 PLP (Rose), NET/ROM, Acorn Econet/AUN, and Controller Area Network (CAN) implementations. Local users can exploit these issues to gain access to kernel memory. Eric Paris discovered an issue with the NFSv4 server implementation. When an O_EXCL create fails, files may be left with corrupted permissions, possibly granting unintentional privileges to other local users. Jan Kiszka noticed that the kvm_emulate_hypercall function in KVM does not prevent access to MMU hypercalls from ring 0, which allows local guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest kernel crash) and read or write guest kernel memory. Alistair Strachan reported an issue in the r8169 driver. Remote users can cause a denial of service (IOMMU space exhaustion and system crash) by transmitting a large amount of jumbo frames.

Title: DSA-1928 linux-2.6.24 -- privilege escalation/denial of service/sensitive memory leak
Description: Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, sensitive memory leak or privilege escalation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: Michael Buesch noticed a typing issue in the eisa-eeprom driver for the hppa architecture. Local users could exploit this issue to gain access to restricted memory. Ulrich Drepper noticed an issue in the do_sigalstack routine on 64-bit systems. This issue allows local users to gain access to potentially sensitive memory on the kernel stack. Eric Dumazet discovered an issue in the execve path, where the clear_child_tid variable was not being properly cleared. Local users could exploit this issue to cause a denial of service (memory corruption). Neil Brown discovered an issue in the sysfs interface to md devices. When md arrays are not active, local users can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service (oops). Mark Smith discovered a memory leak in the appletalk implementation. When the appletalk and ipddp modules are loaded, but no ipddp"N" device is found, remote attackers can cause a denial of service by consuming large amounts of system memory. Loic Minier discovered an issue in the eCryptfs filesystem. A local user can cause a denial of service (kernel oops) by causing a dentry value to go negative. Arjan van de Ven discovered an issue in the AX.25 protocol implementation. A specially crafted call to setsockopt() can result in a denial of service (kernel oops). Jan Beulich discovered the existence of a sensitive kernel memory leak. Systems running the "amd64" kernel do not properly sanitise registers for 32-bit processes. Jiri Slaby fixed a sensitive memory leak issue in the ANSI/IEEE 802.2 LLC implementation. This is not exploitable in the Debian lenny kernel as root privileges are required to exploit this issue. Eric Dumazet fixed several sensitive memory leaks in the IrDA, X.25 PLP (Rose), NET/ROM, Acorn Econet/AUN, and Controller Area Network (CAN) implementations. Local users can exploit these issues to gain access to kernel memory. Eric Dumazet reported an instance of uninitialised kernel memory in the network packet scheduler. Local users may be able to exploit this issue to read the contents of sensitive kernel memory. CVE-2009-3238 Linus Torvalds provided a change to the get_random_int() function to increase its randomness. Eric Paris discovered an issue with the NFSv4 server implementation. When an O_EXCL create fails, files may be left with corrupted permissions, possibly granting unintentional privileges to other local users. Earl Chew discovered a NULL pointer dereference issue in the pipe_rdwr_open function which can be used by local users to gain elevated privileges. Jiri Pirko discovered a typo in the initialisation of a structure in the netlink subsystem that may allow local users to gain access to sensitive kernel memory. Alistair Strachan reported an issue in the r8169 driver. Remote users can cause a denial of service (IOMMU space exhaustion and system crash) by transmitting a large amount of jumbo frames. Ben Hutchings discovered an issue in the DRM manager for ATI Rage 128 graphics adapters. Local users may be able to exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference). Tomoki Sekiyama discovered a deadlock condition in the UNIX domain socket implementation. Local users can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service (system hang).
