Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:154 (systemtap)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to systemtap
announced via advisory MDVSA-2011:154.

A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in systemtap:

SystemTap 1.4 and earlier, when unprivileged (aka stapusr)
mode is enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service
(divide-by-zero error and OOPS) via a crafted ELF program with DWARF
expressions that are not properly handled by a stap script that
performs context variable access (CVE-2011-1769).

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2010.1

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
