-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Moderate: netcf security, bug fix, and enhancement update Advisory ID: RHSA-2015:2248-03 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-2248.html Issue date: 2015-11-19 CVE Names: CVE-2014-8119 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated netcf packages that fix one security issue, several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client Optional (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 7) - ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 7) - x86_64 3. Description: The netcf packages contain a library for modifying the network configuration of a system. Network configuration is expressed in a platform-independent XML format, which netcf translates into changes to the system's "native" network configuration files. A denial of service flaw was found in netcf. A specially crafted interface name could cause an application using netcf (such as the libvirt daemon) to crash. (CVE-2014-8119) This issue was discovered by Hao Liu of Red Hat. The netcf packages have been upgraded to upstream version 0.2.8, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. (BZ#1206680) Users of netcf are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add these enhancements. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. For details on how to apply this update, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 761246 - Bad parsing of network-scripts/ifcfg-xxxx files. 1090011 - Need to limit names of new interfaces to IFNAMSIZ 1113983 - netcf should allow interfaces to be configured with both DHCPv4 and static IPv4 addresses at the same time 1159000 - netcf ignores any IPv4 address past the first one 1170941 - Remove extraneous single quotes from IPV6ADDR_SECONDARIES 1172176 - CVE-2014-8119 netcf: augeas path expression injection via interface name 1206680 - rebase netcf for RHEL7.2 6.
