CVE: CVE-2006-4566
Component: security flaw
Severity: Critical
Release date: 2006-09-15T00:01:00+00:00

Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.7, Thunderbird before 1.5.0.7, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed JavaScript regular expression that ends with a backslash in an unterminated character set ("[\\"), which leads to a buffer over-read.


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

This update is available via Red Hat Network.  To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.

Remediation:
CVE: CVE-2006-1174
Component: security flaw
Severity: Low
Release date: 2006-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

useradd in shadow-utils before 4.0.3, and possibly other versions before 4.0.8, does not provide a required argument to the open function when creating a new user mailbox, which causes the mailbox to be created with unpredictable permissions and possibly allows attackers to read or modify the mailbox.

Statement: Red Hat is aware of this issue and is tracking it via the following bugs:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=193053
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229194

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this issue as having low security impact, a future update may address this flaw.  More information regarding issue severity can be found here:
http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/

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 2.1 which is in maintenance mode.

XML::Parser: Memory corruption via deeply nested XML files
CVE: CVE-2006-10003
Component: perl-xml-parser
CWE: CWE-193
Severity: Important
CVSS v3: 8.7/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Release date: 2006-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A flaw was found in XML::Parser, a Perl module for parsing XML. This vulnerability, an off-by-one heap buffer overflow, occurs when processing an XML file with very deep element nesting. A remote attacker could exploit this by providing a specially crafted XML file, potentially leading to memory corruption.


Remediation:

CVE: CVE-2006-2934
Component: security flaw
Severity: Important
Release date: 2006-06-30T00:00:00+00:00

SCTP conntrack (ip_conntrack_proto_sctp.c) in netfilter for Linux kernel 2.6.17 before 2.6.17.3 and 2.6.16 before 2.6.16.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a packet without any chunks, which causes a variable to contain an invalid value that is later used to dereference a pointer.

CVE: CVE-2006-3626
Component: security flaw
Severity: Moderate
Release date: 2006-07-14T00:00:00+00:00

Race condition in Linux kernel 2.6.17.4 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges by using prctl with PR_SET_DUMPABLE in a way that causes /proc/self/environ to become setuid root.

Statement: This vulnerability does not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 or 3 as they are based on 2.4 kernels.

The exploit relies on the kernel supporting the a.out binary format.  Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Fedora Core 4, and Fedora Core 5 do not support the a.out binary format, causing the exploit to fail.  We are not currently aware of any way to exploit this vulnerability if a.out binary format is not enabled.  In addition, a default installation of these OS enables SELinux in enforcing mode.  SELinux also completely blocks attempts to exploit this issue.
