Description :
David Ford discovered that the IPv4 defragmentation routine did not
correctly handle oversized packets. A remote attacker could send
specially crafted traffic that would cause a system to crash, leading
to a denial of service. (The fix was included in the earlier kernels
from USN-864-1.) (CVE-2009-1298)
Akira Fujita discovered that the Ext4 "move extents" ioctl did not
correctly check permissions. A local attacker could exploit this to
overwrite arbitrary files on the system, leading to root privilege
escalation. (CVE-2009-4131)
Solution :
Upgrade to :
- linux-doc-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-headers-2.6.31-16-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-headers-2.6.31-16-386-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-headers-2.6.31-16-generic-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-headers-2.6.31-16-generic-pae-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-headers-2.6.31-16-server-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-image-2.6.31-16-386-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
- linux-image-2.6.31-16-generic-2.6.31-16.53 (Ubuntu 9.10)
