History of vulnerabilities analyzed by Vigil@nce:
PHP: bypassing directives using ini_restore
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can use ini_restore() to bypass directives of Apache configuration.
Impacted products: Tru64 UNIX, Mandriva Linux, Mandriva NF, OES, openSUSE, PHP, SLES, TurboLinux.
Severity: 2/4.
Consequences: user access/rights.
Provenance: user account.
Creation date: 09/10/2006.
Identifiers: BID-19933, CVE-2006-4625, emr_na-c01086137-1, HPSBTU02232, MDKSA-2006:185, SSRT071429, SUSE-SA:2006:059, TLSA-2006-38, VIGILANCE-VUL-6213.
Description of the vulnerability
The Apache configuration file can contain directives to change PHP behavior in some paths. For example:
<Directory /dir/>
php_admin_flag safe_mode 1
php_admin_value open_basedir /data
</Directory>
The ini_restore() function restores value of an option to the value indicated in the php.ini configuration file.
So, if:
- the configuration of php.ini is permissive, and
- the configuration of httpd.conf is stricter,
then, an attacker can force PHP to use the permissive configuration.
This vulnerability therefore permits an attacker to bypass Apache measures setup by the administrator.

OpenBSD, NetBSD: integer overflow of systrace
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can use the STRIOCREPLACE operation of systrace() in order to generate a denial of service, to read a memory fragment, or to elevate his privileges.
Impacted products: NetBSD, OpenBSD.
Severity: 2/4.
Consequences: administrator access/rights, data reading, denial of service on server.
Provenance: user shell.
Creation date: 09/10/2006.
Revision date: 13/10/2006.
Identifiers: BID-20392, CESA-2006-003, CVE-2006-5218, NetBSD-SA2006-024, VIGILANCE-VUL-6212.
Description of the vulnerability
The systrace() system call permits to control execution of a process.
The STRIOCREPLACE operation modifies parameters given to the program. However, systrace() does not correctly check the systrace_replace structure. A local attacker can thus generate an integer overflow.
This vulnerability permits attacker to generate a denial of service, to read a memory fragment, or to elevate his privileges.

X.Org: xdm session error file reading
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can read the xdm session error file of another user.
Impacted products: Fedora, Solaris, Trusted Solaris.
Severity: 1/4.
Consequences: data reading.
Provenance: user shell.
Number of vulnerabilities in this bulletin: 2.
Creation date: 09/10/2006.
Identifiers: 102652, 32804, 5897, 5898, 6388471, 6423858, BID-20400, CVE-2006-5214, CVE-2006-5215, FEDORA-2007-1409, FEDORA-2007-659, VIGILANCE-VUL-6211.
Description of the vulnerability
The xdm (X Display Manager) program manages one or several X servers. It contains two vulnerabilities in the way error files are managed.
The $HOME/.xsession-errors file is created world readable, then its mode is changed to 0600. However, a local attacker can open the file between these operations and keep the file descriptor. [severity:1/4; 32804, 5897, 6423858, CVE-2006-5214]
The ${TMPDIR-/tmp}/xses-$USER file is created without checking if a symlink exists. A local attacker can therefore force xdm to open a file that he can read. [severity:1/4; 5898, 6388471, CVE-2006-5215]

Solaris: packets capture via link aggregation
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can capture network packets when link aggregation is activated.
Impacted products: Solaris.
Severity: 1/4.
Consequences: data reading.
Provenance: user shell.
Creation date: 09/10/2006.
Identifiers: 102606, 6364350, BID-20377, CVE-2006-5213, VIGILANCE-VUL-6210.
Description of the vulnerability
Link aggregation permits to use several network cables to augment the throughput.
When the aggregation is activated, a local attacker is allowed to create a raw socket. By creating this type of socket, he can then capture packets flowing on the aggregate.
This vulnerability therefore permits a local attacker to obtains sensitive information contained in network packets.

Mono: file corruption via System.CodeDom.Compiler
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can use a symlink in order to create or alter a file during the usage of System.CodeDom.Compiler classes of Mono.
Impacted products: Fedora, Mandriva Linux, openSUSE, SLES, Unix (platform) ~ not comprehensive.
Severity: 1/4.
Consequences: data creation/edition.
Provenance: user shell.
Creation date: 09/10/2006.
Identifiers: CVE-2006-5072, FEDORA-2006-1012, MDKSA-2006:188, SUSE-SA:2006:073, VIGILANCE-VUL-6209.
Description of the vulnerability
The Mono environment is used to develop and run .NET applications under Unix.
Classes of the System.CodeDom.Compiler namespace permits to compile code. However, their methods create temporary files in an insecure manner.
A local attacker can thus use a symlink in order to create or alter a file during the usage of System.CodeDom.Compiler classes.

Symantec: privilege elevation via 3 IOCTL of NAVENG.SYS
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can obtain system privileges with several Symantec products using NAVENG.SYS or NAVEX15.SYS.
Impacted products: Norton Antivirus, Norton Internet Security, Symantec AV.
Severity: 2/4.
Consequences: administrator access/rights.
Provenance: user shell.
Creation date: 06/10/2006.
Identifiers: BID-20360, CERTA-2006-AVI-431, CVE-2006-4927, iDefense Security Advisory 10.05.06, SYM06-020, VIGILANCE-VUL-6207.
Description of the vulnerability
The NAVENG.SYS and NAVEX15.SYS drivers are installed under Windows NT/2000/XP by several Symantec products. An IRP (I/O Request Packet) is used to communicate with the driver.
These drivers do not correctly check memory address indicated in IRP of 3 IOCTL. A local attacker can thus modify 4 bytes located in driver memory.
This vulnerability therefore permits a local attacker to obtain system privileges.

Linux kernel: denial of service of ATM clip_mkip
Synthesis of the vulnerability
An attacker can create an error in the clip_mkip() function in order to stop systems with ATM activated.
Impacted products: Debian, Linux, Mandriva Linux, Mandriva NF, NLD, OES, openSUSE, RHEL, SLES.
Severity: 2/4.
Consequences: denial of service on server.
Provenance: internet client.
Creation date: 06/10/2006.
Identifiers: 206265, AD_LAB-06009, BID-20363, CERTA-2006-AVI-450, CVE-2006-4997, DSA-1233-1, DSA-1237-1, MDKSA-2006:197, MDKSA-2007:012, MDKSA-2007:025, RHSA-2006:0689-01, RHSA-2006:0710-01, RHSA-2007:0012-01, RHSA-2007:0013-01, SUSE-SA:2006:079, VIGILANCE-VUL-6206.
Description of the vulnerability
The net/atm/clip.c file implements Classical IP over ATM (RFC1577). The clip_mkip() function attaches a socket to an IP address.
When clip_mkip() is executed, a memory area containing a sk_buff structure is used without checking if it was not freed.
A remote attacker can generate this error, and thus stop the kernel.

Linux kernel: denial of service of DVB
Synthesis of the vulnerability
An attacker can send a malformed ULE packet in order to stop systems where DVB is activated.
Impacted products: Debian, Linux, Mandriva Linux, NLD, OES, openSUSE, RHEL, SLES.
Severity: 2/4.
Consequences: denial of service on server.
Provenance: intranet client.
Creation date: 06/10/2006.
Identifiers: BID-19939, CVE-2006-4623, DSA-1304-1, MDKSA-2006:182, RHSA-2006:0689-01, SUSE-SA:2006:079, VIGILANCE-VUL-6205.
Description of the vulnerability
DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting) can be activated on Linux kernels. DVB uses ULE encapsulations (Unidirectional Lightweight Encapsulation).
The dvb_net_ule() function of drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_net.c file decodes ULE data. However, this function does not check if SNDU size is sufficient. When this size if null, an error occurs.
This vulnerability therefore permits a remote attacker to stop kernel.

Linux Kernel: denial of service of SCTP
Synthesis of the vulnerability
The patch for the VIGILANCE-VUL-6114 vulnerability permits a local attacker to generate a denial of service.
Impacted products: Debian, Linux, Mandriva Linux, Mandriva NF, RHEL.
Severity: 1/4.
Consequences: denial of service on server.
Provenance: user shell.
Creation date: 06/10/2006.
Identifiers: 204460, BID-20087, CVE-2006-4535, DSA-1183-1, DSA-1184-1, MDKSA-2006:182, MDKSA-2007:025, RHSA-2006:0689-01, VIGILANCE-VUL-6204.
Description of the vulnerability
The VIGILANCE-VUL-6114 vulnerability permits a local attacker to execute privileged code.
However, its patch changes sctp_primitive_ABORT(), which do not recognize some SO_LINGER values.
A local attacker can therefore use these values to stop system.
