______________________________________________________________________________
Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2013:0341-1
Rating: important
References: #779577 #803056 #804154
Cross-References: CVE-2013-0871
Affected Products:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP2 for VMware

______________________________________________________________________________
An update that solves one vulnerability and has two fixes
is now available. It includes one version update.
Description:
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP2 kernel has been updated to
fix two issues:
One severe security issue:
* CVE-2013-0871: A race condition in ptrace(2) could be
used by local attackers to crash the kernel and/or execute
code in kernel context.
One severe regression issue:
* A regression in UNIX domain socket credential
passing. The default disabling of passing credentials
caused regression in some software packages that did not
expect this. One major software package affected by this
was the Open Enterprise Server stack.
Security Issue reference:
* CVE-2013-0871
<http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-0871
