            Immunix Secured OS Security Advisory

    Packages updated: Immunix OS 7+
    Affected products: kernel
    Bugs fixed: CAN-2004-0077
    Date: Thu Feb 26 2004
    Advisory ID: IMNX-2004-7+-001-01

    Description:
      Paul Starzetz and Wojciech Purczynski report finding a flaw in the
      mremap(2) system call due to a missing function return value check.
      While they found the flaw on the 2.4 series of Linux kernels, the 2.2
      series of Linux kernels is also vulnerable to the same problem.

      This updated package includes a patch from Solar Designer to address
      this flaw, as well as some additional uninitialized memory leaking to
      userspace fixes.

      Immunix, Inc., would like to remind Immunix OS 7+ users that support
      for 7+ will be terminated on March 1, 2004. We will be happy to host
      updated packages sent to us by users; contact the immunix-users mail
      list for further information. Users may purchase Immunix OS 7.3 at:
      http://www.immunix.com/products/immunixos/
      Immunix OS 7.3 includes StackGuard, FormatGuard, SubDomain, the 2.4
      version of the Linux kernel with better scalability and device
      support, and up2date. More information on Immunix OS 7.3 is at:
