DSA-440-1 linux-kernel-2.4.17-powerpc-apus Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Several local root exploits have been discovered recently in the Linux kernel. This security advisory updates the PowerPC/Apus kernel for Debian GNU/Linux. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems that are fixed with this update: An integer overflow in brk() system call (do_brk() function) for Linux permits a local attacker to gain root rights. Fixed upstream in Linux 2.4.23. Paul Starzetz discovered a flaw in bounds checking in mremap() in the Linux kernel (present in version 2.4.x and 2.6.x) which may permit a local attacker to gain root rights. Version 2.2 is not affected by this bug. Fixed upstream in Linux 2.4.24. Paul Starzetz and Wojciech Purczynski of isec.pl href="http://isec.pl/vulnerabilities/isec-0014-mremap-unmap.txt">discovered a critical security vulnerability in the memory management code of Linux inside the mremap(2) system call. Due to missing function return value check of internal functions a local attacker can gain root rights. Fixed upstream in Linux 2.4.25 and 2.6.3. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.17-4 of powerpc/apus images. Other architectures will probably be mentioned in a separate advisory or are not affected (m68k). For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your Linux kernel packages immediately.
