Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1723-1
February 14, 2013

qt4-x11 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 12.10
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 11.10
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Qt.

Software Description:
- qt4-x11: Qt 4 libraries

Details:

Richard J. Moore and Peter Hartmann discovered that Qt allowed redirecting
requests from http to file schemes. If an attacker were able to perform a
man-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could be exploited to view sensitive
information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 11.10, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS,
and Ubuntu 12.10. (CVE-2012-5624)

Stephen Cheng discovered that Qt may report incorrect errors when ssl
certificate verification fails. (CVE-2012-6093)

Tim Brown and Mark Lowe discovered that Qt incorrectly used weak
permissions on shared memory segments. A local attacker could use this
issue to view sensitive information, or modify program data belonging to
other users. (CVE-2013-0254)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 12.10:
libqt4-core 4:4.8.3+dfsg-0ubuntu3.1
libqt4-network 4:4.8.3+dfsg-0ubuntu3.1

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
libqt4-core 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.4
libqt4-network 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.4

Ubuntu 11.10:
libqt4-core 4:4.7.4-0ubuntu8.3
libqt4-network 4:4.7.4-0ubuntu8.3

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libqt4-core 4:4.6.2-0ubuntu5.6
libqt4-network 4:4.6.2-0ubuntu5.6

After a standard system update you need to restart your session to make all
the necessary changes.

linux vulnerability
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Summary:

The system could be made to crash under certain conditions.

Software Description:
- linux: Linux kernel

Details:

Andrew Cooper of Citrix reported a Xen stack corruption in the Linux
kernel. An unprivileged user in a 32bit PVOPS guest can cause the guest
kernel to crash, or operate erroneously.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
linux-image-2.6.32-45-386 2.6.32-45.103
linux-image-2.6.32-45-generic 2.6.32-45.103

linux-image-2.6.32-45-powerpc 2.6.32-45.103
linux-image-2.6.32-45-powerpc-smp 2.6.32-45.103
linux-image-2.6.32-45-powerpc64-smp 2.6.32-45.103
linux-image-2.6.32-45-preempt 2.6.32-45.103
linux-image-2.6.32-45-server 2.6.32-45.103

February 14, 2013

linux-ti-omap4 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 11.10

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-ti-omap4: Linux kernel for OMAP4

Details:

It was discovered that hypervkvpd, which is distributed in the Linux
kernel, was not correctly validating the origin on Netlink messages. An
untrusted local user can cause a denial of service of Linux guests in
Hyper-V virtualization environments. (CVE-2012-2669)

Dmitry Monakhov reported a race condition flaw the Linux ext4 filesystem
that can expose stale data. An unprivileged user could exploit this flaw to
cause an information leak. (CVE-2012-4508)

Florian Weimer discovered that hypervkvpd, which is distributed in the
Linux kernel, was not correctly validating source addresses of netlink
packets. An untrusted local user can cause a denial of service by causing
hypervkvpd to exit. (CVE-2012-5532)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 11.10:
linux-image-3.0.0-1221-omap4 3.0.0-1221.34

After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make
all the necessary changes.

ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have
been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and
reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. If
you use linux-restricted-modules, you have to update that package as
well to get modules which work with the new kernel version. Unless you
manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic,
linux-server, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically
perform this as well.
