The openSUSE 11.0 kernel was updated to 2.6.25.16.
It fixes various stability bugs and also security bugs.
CVE-2008-1673: Fixed the range checking in the ASN.1 decoder in NAT for SNMP and CIFS, which could have been used by a remote attacker to crash the machine.
CVE-2008-3276: An integer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel dccp_setsockopt_change() function. An attacker may leverage this vulnerability to trigger a kernel panic on a victim’s machine remotely.
CVE-2008-3272: The snd_seq_oss_synth_make_info function in sound/core/seq/oss/seq_oss_synth.c in the sound subsystem does not verify that the device number is within the range defined by max_synthdev before returning certain data to the caller, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.
CVE-2008-3275: The (1) real_lookup and (2) __lookup_hash functions in fs/namei.c in the vfs implementation do not prevent creation of a child dentry for a deleted (aka S_DEAD) directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (‘overflow’ of the UBIFS orphan area) via a series of attempted file creations within deleted directories.
Also lots of bugs were fixed.
