Samba Symlink Traversal Arbitrary File Access: Synopsis :
The remote file server is prone to a symlink attack.
Description :
The remote Samba server is configured insecurely and allows a remote
attacker to gain read or possibly write access to arbitrary files on
the affected host. Specifically, if an attacker has a valid Samba
account for a share that is writable or there is a writable share that
is configured to be a guest account share, he can create a symlink
using directory traversal sequences and gain access to files and
directories outside that share.
Note that successful exploitation requires that the Samba server's
'wide links' parameter be set to 'yes', which is the default.

SuSE Security Update: Security update for Linux kernel (kernel-6806): Synopsis :
The remote SuSE system is missing the security patch kernel-6806
Description :
This update fixes a several security issues and various bugs in the SUSE Linux
Enterprise 10 SP 2 kernel.
The following security issues were fixed:
CVE-2009-3556: Two sysfs filers in the qla2xxx driver were worldwriteable,
so users could change SCSI attributes of the qla2xxx driver.
CVE-2009-4536: drivers/net/e1000/e1000_main.c in the e1000 driver in the
Linux kernel handles Ethernet frames that exceed the MTU by processing
certain trailing payload data as if it were a complete frame, which
allows remote attackers to bypass packet filters via a large packet with
a crafted payload.
(The e1000e driver is not included in the SLES 10 SP2 kernel, so CVE-2009-4538
does not affect this kernel.)
Solution :
Install the security patch kernel-6806

RHSA-2010-0076: kernel: Synopsis :
The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory RHSA-2010-0076
Description :
Updated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues and three bugs
are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
This update fixes the following security issues:
* an array index error was found in the gdth driver in the Linux kernel. A
local user could send a specially-crafted IOCTL request that would cause a
denial of service or, possibly, privilege escalation. (CVE-2009-3080,
Important)
* a flaw was found in the collect_rx_frame() function in the HiSax ISDN
driver (hfc_usb) in the Linux kernel. An attacker could use this flaw to
send a specially-crafted HDLC packet that could trigger a buffer out of
bounds, possibly resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2009-4005,
Important)
* permission issues were found in the megaraid_sas driver (for SAS based
RAID controllers) in the Linux kernel. The "dbg_lvl" and "poll_mode_io"
files on the sysfs file system ("/sys/") had world-writable permissions.
This could allow local, unprivileged users to change the behavior of the
driver. (CVE-2009-3889, CVE-2009-3939, Moderate)
* a buffer overflow flaw was found in the hfs_bnode_read() function in the
HFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel. This could lead to a
denial of service if a user browsed a specially-crafted HFS file system,
for example, by running "ls". (CVE-2009-4020, Low)
This update also fixes the following bugs:
* if a process was using ptrace() to trace a multi-threaded process, and
that multi-threaded process dumped its core, the process performing the
trace could hang in wait4(). This issue could be triggered by running
"strace -f" on a multi-threaded process that was dumping its core,
resulting in the strace command hanging. (BZ#555869)
* a bug in the ptrace() implementation could have, in some cases, caused
ptrace_detach() to create a zombie process if the process being traced
was terminated with a SIGKILL signal. (BZ#555869)
* the RHSA-2010:0020 update resolved an issue (CVE-2009-4537) in the
Realtek r8169 Ethernet driver. This update implements a better solution for
that issue. Note: This is not a security regression. The original fix was
complete. This update is adding the official upstream fix. (BZ#556406)
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported
patches to correct these issues. The system must be rebooted for this
update to take effect.

Squid < 3.0.STABLE23 / 3.1.0.16: Synopsis :
The remote proxy server is prone to a denial of service attack.
Description :
According to its banner, the version of the Squid proxy caching
server installed on the remote host is 2.x or older than 3.0.STABLE23
/ 3.1.0.16. Such versions reportedly fail to correctly validate DNS
packets, which can be abused by a remote attack to cause a short-term
denial of service.
Note that Nessus has relied only on the version in the proxy server's
banner, which is not updated by either of the patches the project has
released to address this issue. If the one of those has been applied
properly and the service restarted, consider this to be a false
positive.

MoinMoin 'sys.argv' Information Disclosure: Synopsis :
A wiki application on the remote web server has an information
disclosure vulnerability.
Description :
The version of MoinMoin running on the remote host has an information
disclosure vulnerability. Using a specially crafted request, an
unauthenticated remote attacker can specify the directory that the
application uses for its static pages and read arbitrary files from
that directory, subject to the privileges under which the application
runs.
Note that successful exploitation requires MoinMoin's 'FCGI_FORCE_CGI'
setting to be enabled.
