tmpfs: fix kernel BUG in shmem_delete_inode
CVE: CVE-2008-3534
Component: kernel
Severity: Low
Release date: 2008-07-26T00:00:00+00:00

The shmem_delete_inode function in mm/shmem.c in the tmpfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.26.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a certain sequence of file create, remove, and overwrite operations, as demonstrated by the insserv program, related to allocation of "useless pages" and improper maintenance of the i_blocks count.

Statement: This issue did not affect the versions of Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, and 5.

CVE: CVE-2008-5161
Component: OpenSSH
Severity: Low
Release date: 2008-11-19T00:00:00+00:00

Error handling in the SSH protocol in (1) SSH Tectia Client and Server and Connector 4.0 through 4.4.11, 5.0 through 5.2.4, and 5.3 through 5.3.8; Client and Server and ConnectSecure 6.0 through 6.0.4; Server for Linux on IBM System z 6.0.4; Server for IBM z/OS 5.5.1 and earlier, 6.0.0, and 6.0.1; and Client 4.0-J through 4.3.3-J and 4.0-K through 4.3.10-K; and (2) OpenSSH 4.7p1 and possibly other versions, when using a block cipher algorithm in Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode, makes it easier for remote attackers to recover certain plaintext data from an arbitrary block of ciphertext in an SSH session via unknown vectors.

Statement: This issue was addressed for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 by
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-1287.html

After reviewing the upstream fix for this issue, Red Hat does not intend to address this flaw in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

imudp in rsyslog 4.x before 4.1.2, 3.21 before 3.21.9 beta, and 3.20 before 3.20.2 generates a message even when it is sent by an unauthorized sender, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via a large number of spurious messages.

Statement: Not vulnerable. This issue did not affect the version of the rsyslog package, as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Remediation:

Integer overflow in the PCRE regular expression compiler
CVE: CVE-2008-1026
Component: WebKit
Release date: 2008-03-28T00:00:00+00:00

Integer overflow in the PCRE regular expression compiler (JavaScriptCore/pcre/pcre_compile.cpp) in Apple WebKit, as used in Safari before 3.1.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a regular expression with large, nested repetition counts, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

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

Remediation:
CVE: CVE-2008-5659
Component: gnu.java.security.util.PRNG produces easily predictable values
Release date: 2008-12-08T00:00:00+00:00

The gnu.java.security.util.PRNG class in GNU Classpath 0.97.2 and earlier uses a predictable seed based on the system time, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to conduct brute force attacks against cryptographic routines that use this class for randomness, as demonstrated against DSA private keys.

Statement: 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 5.
