An updated rhev-hypervisor package that fixes several security issues is now available.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

The rhev-hypervisor package provides a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor ISO disk image. The Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is a dedicated Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) hypervisor. It includes everything necessary to run and manage virtual machines: A subset of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating environment and the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Agent.

Note: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is only available for the Intel 64 and AMD64 architectures with virtualization extensions.

The RHBA-2011:1254 update introduced a regression in the Linux kernel's Ethernet bridge implementation. If a system had an interface in a bridge, and an attacker on the local network could send packets to that interface, they could cause a denial of service on that system. (CVE-2011-2942)

A flaw in the Linux kernel could lead to GRO (Generic Receive Offload) fields being left in an inconsistent state. An attacker on the local network could use this flaw to trigger a denial of service. GRO is enabled by default in all network drivers that support it.
(CVE-2011-2723)

The way IPv4 and IPv6 protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs were generated could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to inject packets and possibly hijack connections. Protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs are now more random. (CVE-2011-3188)

Non-member VLAN (virtual LAN) packet handling for interfaces in promiscuous mode and also using the be2net driver could allow an attacker on the local network to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2011-3347)

Red Hat would like to thank Brent Meshier for reporting CVE-2011-2723;
Dan Kaminsky for reporting CVE-2011-3188; and Somnath Kotur for reporting CVE-2011-3347.

This updated package provides updated components that include fixes for numerous security issues. These issues have no security impact on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor itself, however.

The security fixes included in this update address the following CVE numbers :

CVE-2011-2695, CVE-2011-2699, CVE-2011-3191, CVE-2011-1833, CVE-2011-2496, CVE-2011-3209, CVE-2011-2484, CVE-2011-3131, CVE-2009-4067, CVE-2011-1160, and CVE-2011-1585 (kernel issues)

CVE-2011-3378 (rpm issues)

The remote Oracle Linux host is missing a security update for the Unbreakable Enterprise kernel package(s).

From Red Hat Security Advisory 2011:1386 :

Updated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues, several bugs, and add one enhancement are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

Security fixes :

* The maximum file offset handling for ext4 file systems could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-2695, Important)

* IPv6 fragment identification value generation could allow a remote attacker to disrupt a target system's networking, preventing legitimate users from accessing its services. (CVE-2011-2699, Important)

* A malicious CIFS (Common Internet File System) server could send a specially crafted response to a directory read request that would result in a denial of service or privilege escalation on a system that has a CIFS share mounted. (CVE-2011-3191, Important)

* A local attacker could use mount.ecryptfs_private to mount (and then access) a directory they would otherwise not have access to. Note: To correct this issue, the RHSA-2011:1241 ecryptfs-utils update must also be installed. (CVE-2011-1833, Moderate)

* A flaw in the taskstats subsystem could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause excessive CPU time and memory use. (CVE-2011-2484, Moderate)

* Mapping expansion handling could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-2496, Moderate)

Xen hypervisor and KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) hosts often deploy bridge interfaces. (CVE-2011-2942, Moderate)

* A flaw in the Xen hypervisor IOMMU error handling implementation could allow a privileged guest user, within a guest operating system that has direct control of a PCI device, to cause performance degradation on the host and possibly cause it to hang. (CVE-2011-3131, Moderate)

* IPv4 and IPv6 protocol sequence number and fragment ID generation could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to inject packets and possibly hijack connections. Protocol sequence number and fragment IDs are now more random. (CVE-2011-3188, Moderate)

* A flaw in the kernel's clock implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-3209, Moderate)

* Non-member VLAN (virtual LAN) packet handling for interfaces in promiscuous mode and also using the be2net driver could allow an attacker on the local network to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2011-3347, Moderate)

* A flaw in the auerswald USB driver could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges by inserting a specially crafted USB device. (CVE-2009-4067, Low)

* A flaw in the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to leak information to user space.
(CVE-2011-1160, Low)

* A malicious CIFS (Common Internet File System) server could send a specially crafted response to a directory read request that would result in a denial of service or privilege escalation on a system that has a CIFS share mounted. (CVE-2011-3191, Important)

* A local attacker could use mount.ecryptfs_private to mount (and then access) a directory they would otherwise not have access to. Note: To correct this issue, the RHSA-2011:1241 ecryptfs-utils update must also be installed. (CVE-2011-1833, Moderate)

* A flaw in the taskstats subsystem could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause excessive CPU time and memory use. (CVE-2011-2484, Moderate)

* Mapping expansion handling could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-2496, Moderate)

* GRO (Generic Receive Offload) fields could be left in an inconsistent state. An attacker on the local network could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. GRO is enabled by default in all network drivers that support it. (CVE-2011-2723, Moderate)

* RHSA-2011:1065 introduced a regression in the Ethernet bridge implementation. If a system had an interface in a bridge, and an attacker on the local network could send packets to that interface, they could cause a denial of service on that system. Xen hypervisor and KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) hosts often deploy bridge interfaces. (CVE-2011-2942, Moderate)

* A flaw in the Xen hypervisor IOMMU error handling implementation could allow a privileged guest user, within a guest operating system that has direct control of a PCI device, to cause performance degradation on the host and possibly cause it to hang. (CVE-2011-3131, Moderate)

* IPv4 and IPv6 protocol sequence number and fragment ID generation could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to inject packets and possibly hijack connections. Protocol sequence number and fragment IDs are now more random. (CVE-2011-3188, Moderate)

* A flaw in the kernel's clock implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-3209, Moderate)

* Non-member VLAN (virtual LAN) packet handling for interfaces in promiscuous mode and also using the be2net driver could allow an attacker on the local network to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2011-3347, Moderate)

* A flaw in the auerswald USB driver could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges by inserting a specially crafted USB device. (CVE-2009-4067, Low)

* A flaw in the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) implementation could allow a local, unprivileged user to leak information to user space.
(CVE-2011-1160, Low)

* A local, unprivileged user could possibly mount a CIFS share that requires authentication without knowing the correct password if the mount was already mounted by another local user. (CVE-2011-1585, Low)
