Gentoo Linux Security Advisory
Title: ConnMan: Multiple vulnerabilities (GLSA 201205-02)
Severity: normal
Exploitable: remote
Date: May 15, 2012
Bug(s): #415415
ID: 201205-02
Synopsis
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ConnMan, allowing
attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause Denial of Service.
Background
ConnMan provides a daemon for managing Internet connections.
Affected Packages
Package: net-misc/connman
Vulnerable: < 1.0-r1
Unaffected: >= 1.0-r1
Architectures: All supported architectures
Description
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ConnMan: - Errors in inet.c and rtnl.c prevent ConnMan from checking the origin
of netlink messages (CVE-2012-2320).
- ConnMan does not properly check for shell escapes when requesting a
hostname via DHCP (CVE-2012-2321).
- An infinite loop error exists in client.c (CVE-2012-2322).
Impact
A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
All ConnMan users should upgrade to the latest version: Code: | # emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/connman-1.0-r1"
|
