Title : Fedora Security Update Fixes iscsi-initiator-utils Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
VUPEN ID : VUPEN/ADV-2007-2277
CVE ID : CVE-2007-3099 - CVE-2007-3100
Rated as : Low Risk 
Remotely Exploitable : Yes
Locally Exploitable : Yes
Release Date : 2007-06-21
|
Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Fedora, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service.
The first issue is caused by an error in the "usr/mgmt_ipc.c" file within open-iscsi (iscsi-initiator-utils) that checks the client's UID on the listening AF_LOCAL socket instead of the new connection, which could be exploited by attackers to access the management interface and cause a denial of service.
The second vulnerability is caused by an error in the "usr/log.c" file within open-iscsi (iscsi-initiator-utils) that uses a semaphore with insecure permissions (world-writable/world-readable) when managing log messages using shared memory, which could be exploited by malicious users to cause a denial of service.
