Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2007:0774
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2007:0774. The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system. These new kernel packages contain fixes for the security issues described below: * a flaw in the ISDN CAPI subsystem that allowed a remote user to cause a denial of service or potential remote access. Exploitation would require the attacker to be able to send arbitrary frames over the ISDN network to the victim's machine. (CVE-2007-1217, Moderate) * a flaw in the perfmon subsystem on ia64 platforms that allowed a local user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-0558, Moderate) In addition, the following bugs were addressed: * a panic after reloading of the LSI Fusion driver. * a vm performance problem was corrected by balancing inactive page lists. * added a nodirplus option to address NFSv3 performance issues with large directories. * changed the personality handling to disallow personality changes of setuid and setgid binaries. This ensures they keep any randomization and Exec-shield protection. All Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 users are advised to upgrade their kernels to the packages associated with their machine architectures and configurations as listed in this erratum. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0774.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#moderate Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 6.9
