This update fixes the following security issues:
* instances of unsafe sprintf() use were found in the Linux kernel
Bluetooth implementation. Creating a large number of Bluetooth L2CAP, SCO,
or RFCOMM sockets could result in arbitrary memory pages being overwritten.
A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic
(denial of service) or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-1084,
Important)
* a flaw was found in the Xen hypervisor implementation when using the
Intel Itanium architecture, allowing guests to enter an unsupported state.
An unprivileged guest user could trigger this flaw by setting the BE (Big
Endian) bit of the Processor Status Register (PSR), leading to the guest
crashing (denial of service). (CVE-2010-2070, Important)
* a flaw was found in the CIFSSMBWrite() function in the Linux kernel
Common Internet File System (CIFS) implementation. A remote attacker could
send a specially-crafted SMB response packet to a target CIFS client,
resulting in a kernel panic (denial of service). (CVE-2010-2248, Important)
* buffer overflow flaws were found in the Linux kernel's implementation of
the server-side External Data Representation (XDR) for the Network File
System (NFS) version 4. An attacker on the local network could send a
specially-crafted large compound request to the NFSv4 server, which could
possibly result in a kernel panic (denial of service) or, potentially, code
execution. (CVE-2010-2521, Important)
* a flaw was found in the handling of the SWAPEXT IOCTL in the Linux kernel
XFS file system implementation. A local user could use this flaw to read
write-only files, that they do not own, on an XFS file system. This could
lead to unintended information disclosure. (CVE-2010-2226, Moderate)
* a flaw was found in the dns_resolver upcall used by CIFS. A local,
unprivileged user could redirect a Microsoft Distributed File System link
to another IP address, tricking the client into mounting the share from a
server of the user's choosing. (CVE-2010-2524, Moderate)
* a missing check was found in the mext_check_arguments() function in the
ext4 file system code. A local user could use this flaw to cause the
MOVE_EXT IOCTL to overwrite the contents of an append-only file on an ext4
file system, if they have write permissions for that file. (CVE-2010-2066,
Low)
