openSUSE Security Update: Security update for procps
______________________________________________________________________________

Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2019:2376-1
Rating: important
References: #1092100 #1121753
Cross-References: CVE-2018-1122 CVE-2018-1123 CVE-2018-1124
CVE-2018-1125 CVE-2018-1126
Affected Products:
openSUSE Leap 15.1
______________________________________________________________________________

An update that fixes 5 vulnerabilities is now available.

Description:

This update for procps fixes the following issues:

procps was updated to 3.3.15. (bsc#1092100)

Following security issues were fixed:

- CVE-2018-1122: Prevent local privilege escalation in top. If a user ran
top with HOME unset in an attacker-controlled directory, the attacker
could have achieved privilege escalation by exploiting one of several
vulnerabilities in the config_file() function (bsc#1092100).
- CVE-2018-1123: Prevent denial of service in ps via mmap buffer overflow.
Inbuilt protection in ps maped a guard page at the end of the overflowed
buffer, ensuring that the impact of this flaw is limited to a crash
(temporary denial of service) (bsc#1092100).
- CVE-2018-1124: Prevent multiple integer overflows leading to a heap
corruption in file2strvec function. This allowed a privilege escalation
for a local attacker who can create entries in procfs by starting
processes, which could result in crashes or arbitrary code execution in
proc utilities run by
other users (bsc#1092100).
- CVE-2018-1125: Prevent stack buffer overflow in pgrep. This
vulnerability was mitigated by FORTIFY limiting the impact to a crash
(bsc#1092100).
- CVE-2018-1126: Ensure correct integer size in proc/alloc.* to prevent
truncation/integer overflow issues (bsc#1092100).


Also this non-security issue was fixed:

- Fix CPU summary showing old data. (bsc#1121753)

The update to 3.3.15 contains the following fixes:

* library: Increment to 8:0:1 No removals, no new functions Changes: slab
and pid structures
* library: Just check for SIGLOST and don't delete it
* library: Fix integer overflow and LPE in file2strvec CVE-2018-1124
* library: Use size_t for alloc functions CVE-2018-1126
* library: Increase comm size to 64
* pgrep: Fix stack-based buffer overflow CVE-2018-1125
* pgrep: Remove >15 warning as comm can be longer
* ps: Fix buffer overflow in output buffer, causing DOS CVE-2018-1123
* ps: Increase command name selection field to 64
* top: Don't use cwd for location of config CVE-2018-1122
* update translations
* library: build on non-glibc systems
* free: fix scaling on 32-bit systems
* Revert "Support running with child namespaces"
* library: Increment to 7:0:1 No changes, no removals New fuctions:
numa_init, numa_max_node, numa_node_of_cpu, numa_uninit,
xalloc_err_handler
* doc: Document I idle state in ps.1 and top.1
* free: fix some of the SI multiples
* kill: -l space between name parses correctly
* library: dont use vm_min_free on non Linux
* library: don't strip off wchan prefixes (ps & top)
* pgrep: warn about 15+ char name only if -f not used
* pgrep/pkill: only match in same namespace by default
* pidof: specify separator between pids
* pkill: Return 0 only if we can kill process
* pmap: fix duplicate output line under '-x' option
* ps: avoid eip/esp address truncations
* ps: recognizes SCHED_DEADLINE as valid CPU scheduler
* ps: display NUMA node under which a thread ran
* ps: Add seconds display for cputime and time
* ps: Add LUID field
* sysctl: Permit empty string for value
* sysctl: Don't segv when file not available
* sysctl: Read and write large buffers
* top: add config file support for XDG specification
* top: eliminated minor libnuma memory leak
* top: show fewer memory decimal places (configurable)
* top: provide command line switch for memory scaling
* top: provide command line switch for CPU States
* top: provides more accurate cpu usage at startup
* top: display NUMA node under which a thread ran
* top: fix argument parsing quirk resulting in SEGV
* top: delay interval accepts non-locale radix point
* top: address a wishlist man page NLS suggestion
* top: fix potential distortion in 'Mem' graph display
* top: provide proper multi-byte string handling
* top: startup defaults are fully customizable
* watch: define HOST_NAME_MAX where not defined
* vmstat: Fix alignment for disk partition format
* watch: Support ANSI 39,49 reset sequences
