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.

CVE-2010-4528 has been assigned to this issue.
Affected products: openSUSE 11.2-11.3
- libmoon-devel/moonlight-plugin
Untrusted Moonlight apps could bypass constraints on methods which
potentially allowed attackers to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2010-4254).
Affected products: SLE11-SP1
- libsmi
This update fixes a buffer overflow the smiGetNode() function in libsmi.
It allowed context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via an
Object Identifier.

- openssl
Malicious clients could downgrade a connection to a low strength cipher
suite on session resumption if the server offers such ciphers (CVE-2010-4180).
Affected products: openSUSE 11.1-11.3, SLE11-SP1

Affected products: SLE11-SP1, SLE10-SP3
- wireshark
Wireshark version 1.4.2 fixes several security issues that allowed
attackers to crash wireshark or potentially even execute arbitrary code
