Immunix OS Security Advisory
Packages updated: kernel
Effected products: Immunix OS 6.2 and 7.0-beta
Bugs Fixed: immunix/1324
Date: February 8, 2001
Advisory ID: IMNX-2001-70-002-01
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
Chris Evans has discovered a security problem in the kernel select()
call that can lead to information leakage in the kernel. There has
also been discovered a race condition that could allow an attacker to
attach to a setuid process using ptrace, which would then allow them
to modify that process.
Packages have been created and released for Immunix 6.2 and 7.0-beta
to fix these problems.
Many thanks to Chris Evans for finding and reporting this problem and
to Solar Designer for creating a patch to solve the ptrace problem.
