From Red Hat Security Advisory 2013:0747 :

Updated kernel packages that fix several security issues and three bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

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

This update fixes the following security issues :

* A flaw was found in the Xen netback driver implementation in the Linux kernel. A privileged guest user with access to a para-virtualized network device could use this flaw to cause a long loop in netback, leading to a denial of service that could potentially affect the entire system. (CVE-2013-0216, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the Xen PCI device back-end driver implementation in the Linux kernel. A privileged guest user in a guest that has a PCI passthrough device could use this flaw to cause a denial of service that could potentially affect the entire system.
(CVE-2013-0231, Moderate)

* A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the IP packet transformation framework (XFRM) implementation in the Linux kernel. A local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2013-1826, Moderate)

* Information leak flaws were found in the XFRM implementation in the Linux kernel. A local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use these flaws to leak kernel stack memory to user-space.
(CVE-2012-6537, Low)

* An information leak flaw was found in the logical link control (LLC) implementation in the Linux kernel. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to leak kernel stack memory to user-space.
(CVE-2012-6542, Low)

* Two information leak flaws were found in the Linux kernel's Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) subsystem. A local, unprivileged user could use these flaws to leak kernel stack memory to user-space.
(CVE-2012-6546, Low)

* An information leak flaw was found in the TUN/TAP device driver in the Linux kernel's networking implementation. A local user with access to a TUN/TAP virtual interface could use this flaw to leak kernel stack memory to user-space. (CVE-2012-6547, Low)

Red Hat would like to thank the Xen project for reporting the CVE-2013-0216 and CVE-2013-0231 issues.

This update also fixes the following bugs :

* The IPv4 code did not correctly update the Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) of the designed interface when receiving ICMP Fragmentation Needed packets. Consequently, a remote host did not respond correctly to ping attempts. With this update, the IPv4 code has been modified so the MTU of the designed interface is adjusted as expected in this situation. The ping command now provides the expected output.
(BZ#923353)

* Previously, the be2net code expected the last word of an MCC completion message from the firmware to be transferred by direct memory access (DMA) at once. However, this is not always true, and could therefore cause the BUG_ON() macro to be triggered in the be_mcc_compl_is_new() function, consequently leading to a kernel panic. The BUG_ON() macro has been removed from be_mcc_compl_is_new(), and the kernel panic no longer occurs in this scenario. (BZ#923910)

* Previously, the NFSv3 server incorrectly converted 64-bit cookies to 32-bit. Consequently, the cookies became invalid, which affected all file system operations depending on these cookies, such as the READDIR operation that is used to read entries from a directory. This led to various problems, such as exported directories being empty or displayed incorrectly, or an endless loop of the READDIRPLUS procedure which could potentially cause a buffer overflow. This update modifies knfsd code so that 64-bit cookies are now handled correctly and all file system operations work as expected. (BZ#924087)

Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

This update fixes the following security issues :

  - A flaw was found in the Xen netback driver     implementation in the Linux kernel. A privileged guest     user with access to a para-virtualized network device     could use this flaw to cause a long loop in netback,     leading to a denial of service that could potentially     affect the entire system. (CVE-2013-0216, Moderate)

  - A flaw was found in the Xen PCI device back-end driver     implementation in the Linux kernel. A privileged guest     user in a guest that has a PCI passthrough device could     use this flaw to cause a denial of service that could     potentially affect the entire system. (CVE-2013-0231,     Moderate)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the IP     packet transformation framework (XFRM) implementation in     the Linux kernel. A local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability could use this flaw to cause a denial of     service. (CVE-2013-1826, Moderate)

  - Information leak flaws were found in the XFRM     implementation in the Linux kernel. A local user who has     the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use these flaws to     leak kernel stack memory to user-space. (CVE-2012-6537,     Low)

  - An information leak flaw was found in the logical link     control (LLC) implementation in the Linux kernel. A     local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to leak     kernel stack memory to user-space. (CVE-2012-6542, Low)

  - Two information leak flaws were found in the Linux     kernel's Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) subsystem. A     local, unprivileged user could use these flaws to leak     kernel stack memory to user-space. (CVE-2012-6546, Low)

  - An information leak flaw was found in the TUN/TAP device     driver in the Linux kernel's networking implementation.
    A local user with access to a TUN/TAP virtual interface     could use this flaw to leak kernel stack memory to     user-space. (CVE-2012-6547, Low)

This update also fixes the following bugs :

  - The IPv4 code did not correctly update the Maximum     Transfer Unit (MTU) of the designed interface when     receiving ICMP Fragmentation Needed packets.
    Consequently, a remote host did not respond correctly to     ping attempts. With this update, the IPv4 code has been     modified so the MTU of the designed interface is     adjusted as expected in this situation. The ping command     now provides the expected output.

  - Previously, the be2net code expected the last word of an     MCC completion message from the firmware to be     transferred by direct memory access (DMA) at once.
    However, this is not always true, and could therefore     cause the BUG_ON() macro to be triggered in the     be_mcc_compl_is_new() function, consequently leading to     a kernel panic. The BUG_ON() macro has been removed from     be_mcc_compl_is_new(), and the kernel panic no longer     occurs in this scenario.

  - Previously, the NFSv3 server incorrectly converted     64-bit cookies to 32-bit. Consequently, the cookies     became invalid, which affected all file system     operations depending on these cookies, such as the     READDIR operation that is used to read entries from a     directory. This led to various problems, such as     exported directories being empty or displayed     incorrectly, or an endless loop of the READDIRPLUS     procedure which could potentially cause a buffer     overflow. This update modifies knfsd code so that 64-bit     cookies are now handled correctly and all file system     operations work as expected.

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.
