Python Security Update Fixes Expat Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
Description: Two vulnerabilities have been identified in Python, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service. These issues are caused by errors in Expat. For additional information, see Critical:--
CVE:CVE-2009-3560 - CVE-2009-3720
URL: http://www.vupen.com/english/advisories/2010/0262
Date: 2010-02-01
Description: Multiple buffer overflows in the LWRES dissector in Wireshark 0.9.15 through 1.0.10 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.5 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed packet, as demonstrated using a stack-based buffer overflow to the dissect_getaddrsbyname_request function.

CVE:CVE-2010-0304
URL: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2010-0304
Date: 2010-02-03
Description: lib/rfc1035.c in Squid 2.x, 3.0 through 3.0.STABLE22, and 3.1 through 3.1.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure) via a crafted DNS packet that only contains a header.
Critical:--
CVE:CVE-2010-0308
URL: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2010-0308
Date: 2010-02-03
Description: Integer overflow in the ap_proxy_send_fb function in proxy/proxy_util.c in mod_proxy in the Apache HTTP Server before 1.3.42 on 64-bit platforms allows remote origin servers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a large chunk size that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

CVE:CVE-2010-0010
URL: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2010-0010
Date: 2010-02-03
Linux kernel Integer underflow in the e1000_clean_rx_irq function
Description: Integer underflow in the e1000_clean_rx_irq function in drivers/net/e1000/e1000_main.c in the e1000 driver in the Linux kernel before 2.6.30-rc8, the e1000e driver in the Linux kernel, and Intel Wired Ethernet (aka e1000) before 7.5.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a crafted frame size.
Critical:--
CVE:CVE-2009-1385
URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/35185
Date: 2010-02-03
Linux Kernel Audit System 'audit_syscall_entry()' System Call Security Bypass Vulnerability
Description: The audit_syscall_entry function in the Linux kernel 2.6.28.7 and earlier on the x86_64 platform does not properly handle (1) a 32-bit process making a 64-bit syscall or (2) a 64-bit process making a 32-bit syscall, which allows local users to bypass certain syscall audit configurations via crafted syscalls, a related issue to CVE-2009-0342 and CVE-2009-0343.
