| EnGarde Secure Linux Security Advisory October 22, 2002 |
| http://www.engardelinux.org/ ESA-20021022-026 |
| |
| Package: kernel |
| Summary: local vulnerabilities. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
EnGarde Secure Linux is a secure distribution of Linux that
features improved access control, host and network intrusion
detection, Web based secure remote management, complete e-commerce
using AllCommerce, and integrated open source security tools.
OVERVIEW
- --------
There are several potentially exploitable local vulnerabilities in the
Linux kernel. During a code audit several sign handling, math
overflow, and other vulnerabilities were fixed. These fixes were made
in 2.2.22-rc1 and have been backported to our kernel.
Thanks to Silvio Cesare and Solar Designer for discovering and
fixing these vulnerabilities.
All users are recommended to upgrade immediately using the special
SOLUTION in this advisory.
SOLUTION
- --------
Users of the EnGarde Professional edition can use the Guardian Digital
Secure Network to update their systems automatically.
EnGarde Community users should upgrade to the most recent version
as outlined in this advisory. Updates may be obtained from:
ftp://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
http://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
Please read and understand this entire section before you attempt to
upgrade the kernel.
Initial Steps
-------------
1) Verify the machine is either:
a) booted into a "standard" kernel; or
b) LIDS is disabled (/sbin/lidsadm -S -- -LIDS_GLOBAL)
2) Determine which kernels you currently have installed:
# rpm -qa --qf "%{NAME}\n" | grep kernel
3) Download the new kernels that match what you have installed
(based on step 2) from the "UPDATED PACKAGES" section of this
advisory.
Installation Steps
------------------
4) Install the new packages. The packages will automagically
update /etc/lilo.conf by commenting out any old EnGarde images
and replacing them with the new ones:
# rpm --replacefiles -i <kernel 1> <kernel 2> ...
5) Re-run LILO. If you see any errors then open /etc/lilo.conf in
your favorite text editor and make the appropriate changes:
# /sbin/lilo
Final Steps
-----------
6) If you did not see any LILO errors then your new kernel is now
installed and your machine is ready to be rebooted:
# reboot
