missing public key challenge proof verification in the TPS component
CVE: CVE-2008-5082
Component: System
Severity: Moderate
Release date: 2008-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

The verifyProof function in the Token Processing System (TPS) component in Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) 7.1 through 7.3 and Dogtag Certificate System 1.0 returns successfully even when token enrollment did not use the hardware key, which allows remote authenticated users with enrollment privileges to bypass intended authentication policies by performing enrollment with a software key.

PyString_FromStringAndSize does not check for negative size values
CVE: CVE-2008-1887
Component: python
Severity: Moderate
Release date: 2008-04-08T00:00:00+00:00

Python 2.5.2 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via multiple vectors that cause a negative size value to be provided to the PyString_FromStringAndSize function, which allocates less memory than expected when assert() is disabled and triggers a buffer overflow.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the push_subg function in parser.y (lib/graph/parser.c) in Graphviz 2.20.2, and possibly earlier versions, allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or execute arbitrary code via a DOT file with a large number of Agraph_t elements.

Component: tog-pegasus pam authentication buffer overflow
CWE: CWE-121
Severity: Critical
Release date: 2008-01-07T00:00:00+00:00

Stack-based buffer overflow in the PAMBasicAuthenticator::PAMCallback function in OpenPegasus CIM management server (tog-pegasus), when compiled to use PAM and without PEGASUS_USE_PAM_STANDALONE_PROC defined, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-5360.

The tog-pegasus package is not installed by default on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.  

tog-pegasus supplied by Red Hat binds only to one port (as plain http is
disabled), port 5989.  The default firewall installed by Red Hat Enterprise
Linux will block remote access to this port.  In normal use it's unlikely you'd
want to have this port accessible outside of an intranet anyway, and it's likely
to be blocked by enterprise border firewalls.

However if tog-pegasus has been installed and unblocked through the fireware,
the Red Hat Security Response Team believes that it would still be hard to
remotely exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code due to the default SELinux
targeted policy on Enterprise Linux 4 and 5, and the SELinux memory protections
enabled by default on Enterprise Linux 5.

The syslog dissector in Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) 1.0.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via unknown vectors, possibly related to an "incomplete SS7 MSU syslog encapsulated packet."

Statement: Not vulnerable. This issue did not affect the versions of wireshark as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, or 5

WEBrick CGI source disclosure
CVE: CVE-2008-1891

(dot), (4) %2e (encoded dot), or (5) %20 (encoded space) character in the URI, possibly related to the WEBrick::HTTPServlet::FileHandler and WEBrick::HTTPServer.new functionality and the :DocumentRoot option.

Statement: Red Hat is aware of this issue and is tracking it via the following bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2008-1891

The sctp_getsockopt_hmac_ident function in net/sctp/socket.c in the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (sctp) implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.26.4, when the SCTP-AUTH extension is enabled, relies on an untrusted length value to limit copying of data from kernel memory, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a crafted SCTP_HMAC_IDENT IOCTL request involving the sctp_getsockopt function.
