--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Security Update Notification FEDORA-2004-186 2004-06-23 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 1 Name : kernel Version : 2.4.22 Release : 1.2194.nptl Summary : The Linux kernel (the core of the Linux operating system) Description : The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your Fedora Core Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Numerous problems referencing userspace memory were identified in several device drivers by Al Viro using the sparse tool. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) assigned the name CAN-2004-0495 to this issue. A problem was found where userspace code could execute certain floating point instructions from signal handlers which would cause the kernel to lock up. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) assigned the name CAN-2004-0554 to this issue. Previous kernels contained a patch against the framebuffer ioctl code which turned out to be unnecessary. This has been dropped in this update. A memory leak in the E1000 network card driver has been fixed. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) assigned the name CAN-2004-0535 to this issue. Previously, inappropriate permissions were set on /proc/scsi/qla2300/HbaApiNode The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) assigned the name CAN-2004-0587 to this issue. Support for systems with more than 4GB of memory was previously unavailable. The 686 SMP kernel now supports this configuration. (Bugzilla #122960) Support for SMP on 586's was also previously not included. This has also been rectified. (Bugzilla #111871) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/1/ afbebd8faf6000a21ccb31b9d79cc42d SRPMS/kernel-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.src.rpm d096e20bef069c9f8c134bc490d7b1c0 x86_64/kernel-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.x86_64.rpm 2e2f20c4090f09591c1c2fda395766a1 x86_64/kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.x86_64.rpm ba9315c99099ae2ea50faad7efbc7a57 x86_64/kernel-doc-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.x86_64.rpm 030f29ae64f0bfbe4c99a45e5077e40c x86_64/kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.x86_64.rpm 372301d42349cb0568ce7d6b71ce078b x86_64/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.x86_64.rpm 4b2105dd045d9cb57eabe18d1047a6de i386/kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i386.rpm a59e186147f73c15d96d0a806e06fcbc i386/kernel-doc-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i386.rpm d90babb412eef5a6dd24bd53ceab38a9 i386/kernel-BOOT-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i386.rpm d8ec8ec23c17058c24ce4bbe5eb59275 i386/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i386.rpm 7d70b95d0cd5b4a93bc1ce90e57762f6 i386/kernel-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i586.rpm 370fa73f7b82c79b03aa7b865671df3a i386/kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i586.rpm 413f46ceee286f874d7cebdf0694a5ef i386/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i586.rpm 6839a7a334a2980b036b09c8a4ad20a9 i386/kernel-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i686.rpm e33e1bd82d52502298e9b24fe53f9acf i386/kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i686.rpm a1bbd9f5bfe7aaa27a561e2b663842ba i386/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.i686.rpm fe4595933f55899f1341c8b167c3720f i386/kernel-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.athlon.rpm 8df5e29195d4c779d60938b740b2b777 i386/kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.athlon.rpm 597b43d471f2fedad519a059d66dc72f i386/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl.athlon.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
