-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2006-0018 Package names: kernel, samba Summary: Multiple vulnerabilities Date: 2006-04-04 Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2 Trustix Secure Linux 3.0 Trustix Operating System - Enterprise Server 2 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package description: kernel The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your Trustix Secure Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. samba Samba provides an SMB server which can be used to provide network services to SMB (sometimes called "Lan Manager") clients, including various versions of MS Windows, OS/2, and other Linux machines. Samba uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT need NetBEUI (Microsoft Raw NetBIOS frame) protocol. Problem description: kernel < TSL 3.0 > - New Upstream. - SECURITY Fix: Marco Ivaldi has reported a weakness caused due to an error within the "ip_push_pending_frames()" function when creating a packet in reply to a received SYN/ACK packet. This causes RST packets to be sent with a IP ID value that is incremented per packet. This can potentially be exploited to conduct idle scan attacks. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2006-1242 to this issue. samba < TSL 3.0 > < TSL 2.2 > < TSEL 2 > - New Upstream - SECURITY Fix: The winbindd daemon included in previous Samba version writes the clear text of server's machine credentials to its log file at level 5. The winbindd log files are world readable by default and often log files are requested on open mailing lists as tools used to debug server misconfigurations. This affects servers configured to use domain or ads security and possibly Samba domain controllers as well (if configured to use winbindd). The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2006-1059 to this issue. Action: We recommend that all systems with this package installed be upgraded. Please note that if you do not need the functionality provided by this package, you may want to remove it from your system.
