tag_insight = "This patch updates the SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP1 kernel. It
fixes various bugs and security issues. The released version is
2.6.16.54-0.2.12.
Following security issues are addressed:
CVE-2008-4210: fs/open.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not
properly strip setuid and setgid bits when there is a write to a
file, which allows local users to gain the privileges of a different
group, and obtain sensitive information or possibly have unspecified
other impact, by creating an executable file in a setgid directory
through the (1) truncate or (2) ftruncate function in conjunction
with memory-mapped I/O.
CVE-2008-3528: The ext[234] filesystem code fails to properly handle
corrupted data structures. With a mounted filesystem image or partition
that have corrupted dir->i_size and dir->i_blocks, a user performing
either a read or write operation on the mounted image or partition
can lead to a possible denial of service by spamming the logfile.
CVE-2007-6716: fs/direct-io.c in the dio subsystem in the Linux kernel
did not properly zero out the dio struct, which allows local users
to cause a denial of service (OOPS), as demonstrated by a certain
fio test.
All other bugfixes can be found by looking at the RPM changelog.";
