Caldera International, Inc. Security Advisory

Subject: Linux - several linux kernel security problems
Advisory number: CSSA-2001-036.0
Issue date: 2001, October 18
Cross reference:
______________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description

Yet another ptrace race condition has been found which allows local
attackers to get access to the root account.

Also, a local attacker can use a recursive symlink structure setup
to effectively cause all filesystem actions to hang for an infinite
amount of time.

The IPTABLES implementation in the 2.4 kernel also had a problem in
the RELATED connection handling of the ip_conntrack_module which is
fixed by the supplied packages.


2. Vulnerable Versions
