VAR-201401-0008 CVE-2011-1936 Xen Service disruption in (DoS) Vulnerabilities CVSS V2: 4.6
CVSS V3: -
Severity: MEDIUM
Xen, when using x86 Intel processors and the VMX virtualization extension is enabled, does not properly handle cpuid instruction emulation when exiting the VM, which allows local guest users to cause a denial of service (guest crash) via unspecified vectors. ( Guest crash ) There are vulnerabilities that are put into a state.Service disruption by local guest users ( Guest crash ) There is a possibility of being put into a state. Xen is prone to multiple denial-of-service vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to cause the guest and host operating systems to crash, denying service to legitimate users. Hitachi JP1 products are prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because they fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. The following products are affected: JP1/IT Resource Management - Manager JP1/IT Service Level Management - Manager. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Secunia is hiring!

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, noarch, ppc, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, noarch, x86_64 3. Description: The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. This update fixes the following security issues: * An integer overflow flaw in ib_uverbs_poll_cq() could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2010-4649, Important) * A race condition in the way new InfiniBand connections were set up could allow a remote user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-0695, Important) * A flaw in the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service if the sysctl "net.sctp.addip_enable" variable was turned on (it is off by default). (CVE-2011-1573, Important) * Flaws in the AGPGART driver implementation when handling certain IOCTL commands could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2011-1745, CVE-2011-2022, Important) * An integer overflow flaw in agp_allocate_memory() could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2011-1746, Important) * A flaw allowed napi_reuse_skb() to be called on VLAN (virtual LAN) packets. An attacker on the local network could trigger this flaw by sending specially-crafted packets to a target system, possibly causing a denial of service. (CVE-2011-1576, Moderate) * An integer signedness error in next_pidmap() could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-1936, Moderate) * A flaw in inet_diag_bc_audit() could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service (infinite loop). (CVE-2011-2213, Moderate) * A missing initialization flaw in the XFS file system implementation could lead to an information leak. (CVE-2011-0711, Low) * A flaw in ib_uverbs_poll_cq() could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1044, Low) * A missing validation check was found in the signals implementation. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to send signals via the sigqueueinfo system call, with the si_code set to SI_TKILL and with spoofed process and user IDs, to other processes. Note: This flaw does not allow existing permission checks to be bypassed; signals can only be sent if your privileges allow you to already do so. (CVE-2011-1182, Low) * A heap overflow flaw in the EFI GUID Partition Table (GPT) implementation could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service by mounting a disk containing specially-crafted partition tables. (CVE-2011-1776, Low) * Structure padding in two structures in the Bluetooth implementation was not initialized properly before being copied to user-space, possibly allowing local, unprivileged users to leak kernel stack memory to user-space.

VAR-201401-0007 CVE-2011-1166 Xen Service disruption in (DoS) Vulnerabilities CVSS V2: 5.5
CVSS V3: -
Severity: MEDIUM
Xen, possibly before 4.0.2, allows local 64-bit PV guests to cause a denial of service (host crash) by specifying user mode execution without user-mode pagetables. ( Host crash ) There is a possibility of being put into a state. The implementation of Xen Hypervisor included in Red Hat Linux is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability. A privileged guest user can exploit this issue to cause the host and the guest to lock up, denying service to legitimate users. Hitachi JP1 products are prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because they fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. The following products are affected: JP1/IT Resource Management - Manager JP1/IT Service Level Management - Manager. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, noarch, ppc, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, noarch, x86_64 3. Description: The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. (CVE-2011-1093, Important) * Multiple buffer overflow flaws were found in the Linux kernel's Management Module Support for Message Passing Technology (MPT) based controllers. A local, unprivileged user could use these flaws to cause a denial of service, an information leak, or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2011-1166, Moderate) * A flaw was found in the way the Xen hypervisor implementation checked for the upper boundary when getting a new event channel port. (CVE-2011-1763, Moderate) * The start_code and end_code values in "/proc/[pid]/stat" were not protected. In certain scenarios, this flaw could be used to defeat Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). (CVE-2011-0726, Low) * A missing initialization flaw in the sco_sock_getsockopt() function could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1078, Low) * A missing validation of a null-terminated string data structure element in the do_replace() function could allow a local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1080, Low) * A buffer overflow flaw in the DEC Alpha OSF partition implementation in the Linux kernel could allow a local attacker to cause an information leak by mounting a disk that contains specially-crafted partition tables. (CVE-2011-1163, Low) * Missing validations of null-terminated string data structure elements in the do_replace(), compat_do_replace(), do_ipt_get_ctl(), do_ip6t_get_ctl(), and do_arpt_get_ctl() functions could allow a local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to cause an information leak. (CVE-2011-1170, CVE-2011-1171, CVE-2011-1172, Low) * A heap overflow flaw in the Linux kernel's EFI GUID Partition Table (GPT) implementation could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service by mounting a disk that contains specially-crafted partition tables. (CVE-2011-1577, Low) Red Hat would like to thank Dan Rosenberg for reporting CVE-2011-1494 and CVE-2011-1495; Vasiliy Kulikov for reporting CVE-2011-1079, CVE-2011-1078, CVE-2011-1080, CVE-2011-1170, CVE-2011-1171, and CVE-2011-1172; Kees Cook for reporting CVE-2011-0726; and Timo Warns for reporting CVE-2011-1163 and CVE-2011-1577. This update also fixes several bugs. Documentation for these bug fixes will be available shortly from the Technical Notes document linked to in the References section. Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues, and fix the bugs noted in the Technical Notes. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259 To install kernel packages manually, use "rpm -ivh [package]". Do not use "rpm -Uvh" as that will remove the running kernel binaries from your system. You may use "rpm -e" to remove old kernels after determining that the new kernel functions properly on your system.

VAR-201201-0090 CVE-2011-5053 WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) PIN brute force vulnerability CVSS V2: 5.8
CVSS V3: -
Severity: MEDIUM
The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) protocol, when the "external registrar" authentication method is used, does not properly inform clients about failed PIN authentication, which makes it easier for remote attackers to discover the PIN value, and consequently discover the Wi-Fi network password or reconfigure an access point, by reading EAP-NACK messages. In addition, multiple wireless routers do not have a function to deal with brute force attacks, making attacks even easier. (2012 Year 1 Moon 6 Day - Postscript ) JPCERT/CC Has confirmed that the attack tool has been made public.By a third party who has access to the device, EAP-NACK By reading the message, Wi-Fi You may get your network password. As a result, the content of the communication may be intercepted or used as a foothold for further attacks. An attacker can exploit this issue to bypass the authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the affected system. Successfully exploiting this issue may lead to further attacks. Huawei B153 3G/UMTS router WPS weakness ======================================= [ADVISORY INFORMATION] Title: Huawei B153 3G/UMTS router WPS weakness Discovery date: 21/05/2013 Release date: 05/08/2013 Advisory URL: http://blog.emaze.net/2013/08/huawei-b153-3gumts-router-wps-weakness.html Credits: Roberto Paleari (roberto.paleari@emaze.net, @rpaleari) Alessandro Di Pinto (alessandro.dipinto@emaze.net, @adipinto) [VULNERABILITY INFORMATION] Class: Authentication bypass [AFFECTED PRODUCTS] We confirm the presence of the security vulnerability on the following products/firmware versions: * Huawei B153 3G/UMTS router, software version 1096.11.405.03.111sp02 Other device models and firmware versions are probably also vulnerable, but they were not checked. As required by the ISP that distributes this device to end-users, we do not disclose the full commercial name of the product, but only the manufacturer device model (i.e., Huawei B153). In the default device configuration, the WPS daemon is configured to accept WPS PIN authentication attempts, but no WPS PIN is configured. Thus, the device is supposed to reject any possible PIN-based WPS request, allowing only the "push button" mechanism, that requires physical interaction. Unfortunately we detected that, despite no WPS PIN is actually configured, a specially-crafted WPS session can still force the device to complete the "External Registrar" handshake, returning to the attacker the current WPA2 passphrase. In other terms attackers located within the wireless range of the device can instantly recover the WPA passphrase. We would also like to stress out that this vulnerability is present in the default device configuration, and no user action is required. As a consequence, we implemented our proof-of-concept as a small patch to the reaver WPS cracking tool [3] (the unmodified version of reaver *cannot* recover the password for this device).

I. Description WPS uses a PIN as a shared secret to authenticate an access point and a client and provide connection information such as WEP and WPA passwords and keys. In the external registrar exchange method, a client needs to provide the correct PIN to the access point. An attacking client can try to guess the correct PIN. For further details, please see Vulnerability Note VU#723755 and further documentation by Stefan Viehbock and Tactical Network Solutions. II. Impact An attacker within radio range can brute-force the WPS PIN for a vulnerable access point. The attacker can then obtain WEP or WPA passwords and likely gain access to the Wi-Fi network. Once on the network, the attacker can monitor traffic and mount further attacks. III. Solution Update Firmware Check your access point vendor's support website for updated firmware that addresses this vulnerability. Further information may be available in the Vendor Information section of VU#723755 and in a Google spreadsheet called WPS Vulnerability Testing. Disable WPS Depending on the access point, it may be possible to disable WPS. Note that some access points may not actually disable WPS when the web management interface indicates that WPS is disabled. IV.
