Referenced CVEs:  CVE-2008-1391, CVE-2010-0296, CVE-2010-0830 Description:  =========================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-944-1 May 25, 2010 glibc, eglibc vulnerabilities CVE-2008-1391, CVE-2010-0296, CVE-2010-0830 =========================================================== A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Ubuntu 9.04 Ubuntu 9.10 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: libc6 2.3.6-0ubuntu20.6 Ubuntu 8.04 LTS: libc6 2.7-10ubuntu6 Ubuntu 9.04: libc6 2.9-4ubuntu6.2 Ubuntu 9.10: libc6 2.10.1-0ubuntu17 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: libc6 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.1 After a standard system update you need to restart all services to make the necessary changes. Details follow: Maksymilian Arciemowicz discovered that the GNU C library did not correctly handle integer overflows in the strfmon function. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted format string, a remote attacker could crash applications, leading to a denial of service. (Ubuntu 10.04 was not affected.) (CVE-2008-1391) Jeff Layton and Dan Rosenberg discovered that the GNU C library did not correctly handle newlines in the mntent family of functions. If a local attacker were able to inject newlines into a mount entry through other vulnerable mount helpers, they could disrupt the system or possibly gain root privileges. (CVE-2010-0296) Dan Rosenberg discovered that the GNU C library did not correctly validate certain ELF program headers. If a user or automated system were tricked into verifying a specially crafted ELF program, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with user privileges. (CVE-2010-0830)

Description:  =========================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-928-1 April 15, 2010 sudo vulnerability https://launchpad.net/bugs/563963 =========================================================== A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Ubuntu 8.10 Ubuntu 9.04 Ubuntu 9.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: sudo 1.6.8p12-1ubuntu6.2 sudo-ldap 1.6.8p12-1ubuntu6.2 Ubuntu 8.04 LTS: sudo 1.6.9p10-1ubuntu3.7 sudo-ldap 1.6.9p10-1ubuntu3.7 Ubuntu 8.10: sudo 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.3 sudo-ldap 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.3 Ubuntu 9.04: sudo 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu3.2 sudo-ldap 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu3.2 Ubuntu 9.10: sudo 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.2 sudo-ldap 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.2 In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. Details follow: Valerio Costamagna discovered that sudo did not properly validate the path for the 'sudoedit' pseudo-command when the PATH contained only a dot ('.'). If secure_path and ignore_dot were disabled, a local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code as root if sudo was configured to allow the attacker to use sudoedit. By default, secure_path is used and the sudoedit pseudo-command is not used in Ubuntu. This is a different but related issue to CVE-2010-0426.

USN-927-3: Thunderbird regression

Ubuntu security notices - Lun, 04/12/2010 - 00:42
Description:  =========================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-927-3 April 11, 2010 thunderbird regression https://launchpad.net/bugs/559918 =========================================================== A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 9.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 9.10: thunderbird 2.0.0.24+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.2 After a standard system upgrade you need to restart Thunderbird to effect the necessary changes. Details follow: USN-927-1 fixed vulnerabilities in NSS. Due to upstream changes in NSS 3.12.6, Thunderbird would be unable to initialize the security component and connect with SSL/TLS if the old libnss3-0d transition package was installed. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details: Marsh Ray and Steve Dispensa discovered a flaw in the TLS and SSLv3 protocols. If an attacker could perform a man in the middle attack at the start of a TLS connection, the attacker could inject arbitrary content at the beginning of the user's session. This update adds support for the new new renegotiation extension and will use it when the server supports it.

Description:  =========================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-927-2 April 11, 2010 nss regression https://launchpad.net/bugs/559881 =========================================================== A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 9.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 9.10: libnss3-1d 3.12.6-0ubuntu0.9.10.2 After a standard system upgrade you need to restart your session to effect the necessary changes. Details follow: USN-927-1 fixed vulnerabilities in NSS. Upstream NSS 3.12.6 added an additional checksum verification on libnssdbm3.so, but the Ubuntu packaging did not create this checksum. As a result, Firefox could not initialize the security component when the NSS Internal FIPS PKCS #11 Module was enabled. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience.
