tag_insight = "This kernel update for SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 Service Pack 2 fixes
various bugs and some security problems:
CVE-2008-4210: When creating a file, open()/creat() allowed the setgid
bit to be set via the mode argument even when, due to the bsdgroups
mount option or the file being created in a setgid directory, the new
file's group is one which the user is not a member of. The local
attacker could then use ftruncate() and memory-mapped I/O to turn
the new file into an arbitrary binary and thus gain the privileges
of this group, since these operations do not clear the setgid bit."
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-2008-1514: The S/390 ptrace code allowed local users to cause
a denial of service (kernel panic) via the user-area-padding test
from the ptrace test suite in 31-bit mode, which triggers an invalid
dereference.
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.
CVE-2008-3525: Added missing capability checks in sbni_ioctl().
Also OCFS2 was updated to version v1.4.1-1.
The full amount of changes can be reviewed in the RPM changelog.";
