RHSA-2003-419: kernel |
||
Check for the version of the kernel packages Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Updated kernel packages are now available that fix a security vulnerability which may permit local users to gain root rights. The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system. Paul Starzetz discovered a flaw in bounds checking in mremap() in the Linux kernel versions 2.4.23 and previous which may permit a local attacker to gain root rights. No exploit is currently available however, it is believed that this issue is exploitable (although not trivially.) The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2003-0985 to this issue. All users are advised to upgrade to these errata packages, which contain a backported security patch that corrects this issue. Red Hat would like to thank Paul Starzetz from ISEC for disclosing this issue as well as Andrea Arcangeli and Solar Designer for working on the patch.
