http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.25.5
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.25.6
CVE-2008-1673: The asn1 implementation in (a) the Linux kernel 2.4
before 2.4.36.6 and 2.6 before 2.6.25.5, as used in the cifs and
ip_nat_snmp_basic modules; and (b) the gxsnmp package; does not
properly validate length values during decoding of ASN.1 BER data,
which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or
execute arbitrary code via (1) a length greater than the working
buffer, which can lead to an unspecified overflow; (2) an oid length
of zero, which can lead to an off-by-one error; or (3) an indefinite
length for a primitive encoding. Bugs fixed: 447518 - Call to capget()
overflows buffers 448056 - applesmc filling log file 450191 - DMA mode
disabled for DVD drive, reverts to PIO4 439197 - thinkpad x61t crash
when undocking 445761 - MacBook4,1 keyboard and trackpad do not work
properly 447812 - Netlink messages from 'tc' to sch_netem module are
not interpreted correctly 449817 - SD card reader causes kernel panic
during startup if card inserted 242208 - Freeze On Boot w/ Audigy
PCMCIA 443552 - Kernel 2.6.25 + Wine = hang Additional bugs fixed:
F8#224005 - pata_pcmcia fails F8#450499 - kernel-2.6.25.4-10.fc8
breaks setkey -m tunnel options in ipsec F8#445553 - DMAR
(intel_iommu) broken on yet another machine Additional updates/fixes:
- Upstream wireless updates from 2008-05-22
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=121146112404515&w=2) - Upstream
wireless fixes from 2008-05-28 (http://marc.info/?l=linux-
wireless&m=121201250110162&w=2) - Fix oops in lirc_i2c module - Add
lirc support for additional MCE receivers - Upstream wireless fixes
from 2008-06-03
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=121252137324941&w=2) - Add
