kernel-generic 2.6.24.5 - 2

Patched to fix a security issue in fs/dnotify.c. The use of dnotify (largely replaced by inotify on 2.6.x systems) could lead to a local DoS, or possibly a local root hole. We said we wouldn't make changes now unless something was "critical" -- and it seems we got what we wished for. ;-) This flaw will also be addressed in the kernels for previous releases as soon as possible. The patch itself may be found in source/k/linux-2.6.24.5-CVE-2008-1375-patch/. For additional information (when the CVE candidate is opened), see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1375 All the kernel packages below should also be considered security fixes.

cups 1.3.7 - 2

Applied patch str2790 to fix crash bugs in the PNG image filter. The issues are not believed to be capable of either a DoS (at worst, it simply crashes the filter processing the current job and does not crash the scheduler daemon, which just moves on to the next job in the print queue), nor arbitrary code execution (data from the image is never stored in the affected tile array). Still, it seems to be worth fixing here just in case. The CUPS bug report may be found here: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L2790

libpng 1.2.27 - 1

Upgraded to libpng-1.2.27. This fixes various bugs, the most important of which have to do with the handling of unknown chunks containing zero-length data. Processing a PNG image that contains these could cause the application using libpng to crash (possibly resulting in a denial of service), could potentially expose the contents of uninitialized memory, or could cause the execution of arbitrary code as the user running libpng (though it would probably be quite difficult to cause the execution of attacker-chosen code). We recommend upgrading the package as soon as possible. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1382 ftp://ftp.simplesystems.org/pub/libpng/png/src/libpng-1.2.27-README.txt (* Security fix *)
