posix-cpu-timers: workaround to suppress the problems with mt exec
CVE: CVE-2010-4248
Component: kernel
Severity: Moderate
Release date: 2010-11-05T00:00:00+00:00

Race condition in the __exit_signal function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 allows local users to cause a denial of service via vectors related to multithreaded exec, the use of a thread group leader in kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c, and the selection of a new thread group leader in the de_thread function in fs/exec.c.

Statement: This issue did not affect the version of Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 as it did not have support for CPU time clocks for the POSIX clock interface. This has been addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and Red Hat Enterprise MRG via https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0004.html, https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0007.html and https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0330.html.

Remediation:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the 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

To install kernel packages manually, use "rpm -ivh [package]". Do not
use "rpm -Uvh" as that will remove the running kernel binaries from
your system. You may use "rpm -e" to remove old kernels after
determining that the new kernel functions properly on your system.
Users should upgrade to these updated kernel-rt packages. They are
based on upstream version 2.6.33.7.2-rt30 (despite package naming) and
correct these issues. The system must be rebooted for this update to
take effect.

Remediation:
CVE: CVE-2010-1621
Component: MySQL UNINSTALL PLUGIN requires no privileges
Severity: None
Release date: 2010-03-05T00:00:00+00:00

The mysql_uninstall_plugin function in sql/sql_plugin.cc in MySQL 5.1 before 5.1.46 does not check privileges before uninstalling a plugin, which allows remote attackers to uninstall arbitrary plugins via the UNINSTALL PLUGIN command.

Statement: Not vulnerable. These issues did not affect the versions of mysql as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, or 5.

Remediation:

unknown tag handling assertion failure
CVE: CVE-2010-2631
Component: libtiff
Release date: 2010-06-22T00:00:00+00:00

LibTIFF 3.9.0 ignores tags in certain situations during the first stage of TIFF file processing and does not properly handle this during the second stage, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2481.

Statement: Not vulnerable. This issue did not affect the versions of libtiff as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, or 5.

Remediation:
Two security fixes in upstream v1.92 version
CVE: CVE-2010-0749
Component: Transmission
Release date: 2010-03-14T00:00:00+00:00

Transmission before 1.92 allows attackers to prevent download of a file by corrupted data during the endgame.

Statement: Red Hat Product Security has determined that this vulnerability does not affect any currently supported Red Hat product. This assessment may evolve based on further analysis and discovery.

Remediation:
Stack overflow by processing a certain regular expression
CVE: CVE-2010-1158
Component: Perl
Release date: 2010-04-06T00:00:00+00:00

Integer overflow in the regular expression engine in Perl 5.8.x allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and application crash) by matching a crafted regular expression against a long string.

Statement: The Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having low security impact. The risks associated with fixing this bug are greater than the low severity security risk. We therefore currently have no plans to fix this flaw in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, or 5.

CVE: CVE-2010-1322
Component: krb5
Severity: Important
Release date: 2010-10-05T00:00:00+00:00

The merge_authdata function in kdc_authdata.c in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.8.x before 1.8.4 does not properly manage an index into an authorization-data list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash), or possibly obtain sensitive information, spoof authorization, or execute arbitrary code, via a TGS request that triggers an uninitialized pointer dereference, as demonstrated by a request from a Windows Active Directory client.

Statement: This issue did not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, or 5.  It was addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 via https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010-0863.html.

The SSL implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 3.5.14 and 3.6.x before 3.6.11, Thunderbird before 3.0.9 and 3.1.x before 3.1.5, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.9 does not properly set the minimum key length for Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral (DHE) mode, which makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms via a brute-force attack.
