- Updated iproute packages that close a locally-exploitable denial of service
- vulnerability are now available.
-
- The iproute package contains advanced IP routing and network device
- configuration tools.
-
- Herbert Xu reported that iproute can accept spoofed messages sent on the
- kernel netlink interface by other users on the local machine. This could
- lead to a local denial of service attack. The Common Vulnerabilities and
- Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0856 to
- this issue.
-
- Users of iproute should upgrade to these erratum packages, which contain a
- patch that checks that netlink messages actually came from the kernel.
