1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities
To avoid flooding mailing lists with SUSE Security Announcements for minor
issues, SUSE Security releases weekly summary reports for the low profile
vulnerability fixes. The SUSE Security Summary Reports do not list or
download URLs like the SUSE Security Announcements that are released for
more severe vulnerabilities.
Fixed packages for the following incidents are already available on our FTP
server and via the YaST Online Update.
- dovecot12
Huge mail headers could cause dovecot to consume excessive amounts of CPU
cycles. (CVE-2010-0745)
Affected Products: openSUSE 11.2
- cacti
Missing input sanitation in the template export feature allowed for SQL
injection attacks (CVE-2010-1431).
Affected Products: openSUSE 11.0
- java-1_6_0-openjdk
java-1_6_0-openjdk version 1.7.3 fixes serveral security issues:
- CVE-2010-0837: JAR 'unpack200' must verify input parameters - CVE-2010-0845: No ClassCastException for HashAttributeSet constructors if run with -Xcomp
- CVE-2010-0838: CMM readMabCurveData Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
- CVE-2010-0082: Loader-constraint table allows arrays instead of only
the base-classes
- CVE-2010-0095: Subclasses of InetAddress may incorrectly interpret
network addresses
- CVE-2010-0085: File TOCTOU deserialization vulnerability
- CVE-2010-0091: Unsigned applet can retrieve the dragged information
before drop action occurs - CVE-2010-0088: Inflater/Deflater clone issues
- CVE-2010-0084: Policy/PolicyFile leak dynamic ProtectionDomains.
- CVE-2010-0092: AtomicReferenceArray causes SIGSEGV->SEGV_MAPERR error
- CVE-2010-0094: Deserialization of RMIConnectionImpl objects should
enforce stricter checks
- CVE-2010-0093: System.arraycopy unable to reference elements beyond
Integer.MAX_VALUE bytes
- CVE-2010-0840: Applet Trusted Methods Chaining Privilege Escalation
Vulnerability
- CVE-2010-0848: AWT Library Invalid Index Vulnerability
- CVE-2010-0847: ImagingLib arbitrary code execution vulnerability
- CVE-2009-3555: TLS: MITM attacks via session renegotiation
Affected Products: openSUSE 11.0, 11.1, 11.2
- irssi
irssi did not check the identity information of a remote hosts's certi-
ficate. Attackers could exploit that for a man-in-the-middle attack
(CVE-2010-1155).
irssi could crash if someone changed nick while the victim was leaving
the channel (CVE-2010-1156).
Affected Products: openSUSE 11.0, 11.1, 11.2
- tar
A malicious remote tape server could cause a buffer overflow in tar.
In order to exploit that an attacker would have to trick the victim
to extract a file that causes tar to open a connection to the rmt
server (CVE-2010-0624). It's advisable to always use tar's
--force-local local option to avoid such tricks.
Affected Products: SLES9, SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 11.0, 11.1, 11.2
- fuse
This update adds additional improvements to avoid a race condition in
fusermount that allowed users to umount any filesystem (related to
CVE-2009-3297). Thanks to Al Viro who found it.
Additionally a race condition in fusermount was fixed that allowed non-
privileged users to umount any file system (CVE-2010-0789).
Note: this is a re-release of the previous update with a better patch.
SLE10-SP2, SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 11.0, 11.1, 11.2
- apache2
Integer overflows in libapr could potentially be exploited to execute
arbitrary code (CVE-2009-2412).
Specially crafted XML documents cause apache to consume large amounts
of memory (CVE-2009-1955).
Affected Products: SLES9
- libmysqlclient-devel
This update fixes several security issues in mysql:
- checking server certificates (CVE-2009-4028)
- error handling in subqueries (CVE-2009-4019)
- preserving null_value flag in GeomFromWKB (CVE-2009-4019)
- symlink behavior fixed (CVE-2008-7247)
- symlink behavior refixed (CVE-2009-4030)
Affected Products: SLE10-SP2, SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 11.0, 11.1, 11.2
- cpio
This update fixes a heap-based buffer overflow flaw that can happen
while expanding specially-crafted archive files (CVE-2010-0624).
It also contains changes for:
- fixed Dat160 Tape Drive density information (bnc#415166)
- fixed cpio issues with file sizes >= 2^32
- fixed handling eof and eod marks (bnc#371077)
Affected Products: SLES9, SLE10-SP3, SLE11
- moodle
Moodle version 1.9.8 fixes several security issues including
cross-site-scripting (XSS) and SQL injection bugs (CVE-2010-1613,
CVE-2010-1614, CVE-2010-1615, CVE-2010-1616, CVE-2010-1617
CVE-2010-1618, CVE-2010-1619).
Affected Products: openSUSE 11.0, 11.1
- libmikmod
Specially crafted "Impulse Tracker" and "Ultratracker" files could cause a
heap based buffer overflow in libmikmod. Attackers could exploit that to
crash or potentially execute code in applications linking against libmikmod
(CVE-2009-3995, CVE-2009-3996).
Affected Products: SLE10-SP3, SLE11, openSUSE 11.0, 11.1, 11.2
- libicecore
This update of libxmlrpc is not vulnerable to denial of service bugs that
can occur while processing malformed XML input.
- CVE-2009-2625: CVSS v2 Base Score: 5.0
- CVE-2009-3720: CVSS v2 Base Score: 5.0

(CVE-2009-0547).
Affected Products: SLE11, openSUSE 11.0
- libpng/libpng-devel
Fix for a denial-of-service failure that can occur while decompressing a
