______________________________________________________________________________

1) Problem Description and Brief Discussion

      The Linux kernel is the core component of the Linux system.
      
      This update fixes various security as well as non-security problems
      discovered since the last round of kernel updates.
      
      Not all kernels are affected by all the problems, each of the problems
      has an affected note attached to it.
      
      The CAN-YYYY-NNNN IDs are Mitre CVE Candidate IDs, please see
      http://www.mitre.org for more information.
   
      The following security problems have been fixed:
   
      - local users could crash the system by causing stack fault
        exceptions (CAN-2005-1767)
   
        SUSE Linux 9.0 and SLES8 are affected.
   
      - local users could use ptrace to crash the kernel
        (CAN-2005-1761).
   
        SLES8 on the ia64 architecture is affected.
   
      - by causing an overflow in the 32bit execve function users could
        crash the kernel or even execute code (CAN-2005-1768).
   
        SLES 9 on the x86-64 and ia64 architectures and SUSE Linux 9.1
        on the x86-64 architecture are affected.
   
      - an overflow when validating XDR data for the nfsacl protocol
        could crash the kernel.
   
        SUSE Linux 9.2 and 9.3 are affected.
   
      - local users could crash the kernel by reading from large
        offsets in sysfs files
   
        SUSE Linux 9.2 is affected.
   
   
      On SUSE Linux 9.1 this update contains the kernel used by the
      SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, Service Pack 2. This kernel adds
      among many bugfixes and driver updates support for non-executable
      pages (NX) on x86 CPUs and improves dual core CPU support.


2) Solution or Work-Around

   There is no known workaround, please install the update packages.

3) Special Instructions and Notes

     SPECIAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
     =================================
     The following paragraphs guide you through the installation
     process in a step-by-step fashion. The character sequence "****"
     marks the beginning of a new paragraph. In some cases, the steps
     outlined in a particular paragraph may or may not be applicable
     to your situation. Therefore, make sure that you read through
     all of the steps below before attempting any of these
     procedures. All of the commands that need to be executed must be
     run as the superuser 'root'. Each step relies on the steps
     before it to complete successfully.
   
   
   **** Step 1: Determine the needed kernel type.
   
     Use the following command to determine which kind of kernel is
     installed on your system:
   
       rpm -qf --qf '%{name}\n' /boot/vmlinuz
   
   
   **** Step 2: Download the packages for your system.
   
     Download the kernel RPM package for your distribution with the
     name indicated by Step 1. Starting from SUSE LINUX 9.2, kernel
     modules that are not free were moved to a separate package with
     the suffix '-nongpl' in its name. Download that package as well
     if you rely on hardware that requires non-free drivers, such as
     some ISDN adapters. The list of all kernel RPM packages is
     appended below.
   
     The kernel-source package does not contain a binary kernel in
     bootable form. Instead, it contains the sources that correspond
     with the binary kernel RPM packages. This package is required to
     build third party add-on modules.
   
   
   **** Step 3: Verify authenticity of the packages.
   
     Verify the authenticity of the kernel RPM package using the
     methods as listed in Section 6 of this SUSE Security
     Announcement.
   
   
   **** Step 4: Installing your kernel rpm package.
   
     Install the rpm package that you have downloaded in Step 2 with
     the command
   
         rpm -Uhv <FILE>
   
     replacing <FILE> with the filename of the RPM package
     downloaded.
   
     Warning: After performing this step, your system may not boot
              unless the following steps have been followed 
             completely.
   
   
   **** Step 5: Configuring and creating the initrd.
   
     The initrd is a RAM disk that is loaded into the memory of your
     system together with the kernel boot image by the boot loader.
     The kernel uses the content of this RAM disk to execute commands
     that must be run before the kernel can mount its root file
     system. The initrd is typically used to load hard disk
     controller drivers and file system modules. The variable
     INITRD_MODULES in /etc/sysconfig/kernel determines which kernel
     modules are loaded in the initrd.
   
     After a new kernel rpm has been installed, the initrd must be
     recreated to include the updated kernel modules. Usually this
     happens automatically when installing the kernel rpm. If
     creating the initrd fails for some reason, manually run the
     command
   
       /sbin/mkinitrd
   
   
   **** Step 6: Update the boot loader, if necessary.
   
     Depending on your software configuration, you either have the
     LILO or GRUB boot loader installed and initialized on your
     system. Use the command
     
       grep LOADER_TYPE /etc/sysconfig/bootloader
   
     to find out which boot loader is configured.
   
     The GRUB boot loader does not require any further action after a
     new kernel has been installed. You may proceed to the next step
     if you are using GRUB. 
   
     If you use the LILO boot loader, lilo must be run to
     reinitialize the boot sector of the hard disk. Usually this
     happens automatically when installing the kernel RPM. In case
     this step fails, run the command
     
       /sbin/lilo
   
   
     Warning: An improperly installed boot loader will render your
              system unbootable.
   
   
   **** Step 7: Reboot.
   
     If all of the steps above have been successfully completed on
     your system, the new kernel including the kernel modules and the
     initrd are ready to boot. The system needs to be rebooted for
     the changes to be active. Make sure that all steps have been
     completed then reboot using the command
   
       /sbin/shutdown -r now
   
     Your system will now shut down and restart with the new kernel.


4) Package Location and Checksums

   The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST
   Online Update (YOU) tool. YOU detects which updates are required and
   automatically performs the necessary steps to verify and install them.
   Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually
   and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this
   announcement. Then install the packages using the command

     rpm -Fhv <file.rpm>

   to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the
   downloaded RPM package.

   Our maintenance customers are notified individually. The packages are
   offered for installation from the maintenance web.

______________________________________________________________________________

6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information

  - Announcement authenticity verification:

    SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web
    sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is
    guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE
    security announcements are published with a valid signature.

    To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file
    and run the command

      gpg --verify <file>

    replacing <file> with the name of the file where you saved the 
    announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like:

      gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9
      gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security@xxxxxxx>"

    where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed.

    If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can
    import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the
    command

      gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc

  - Package authenticity verification:

    SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the
    world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free
    and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of
    a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered
    with.

    There are two verification methods that can be used independently from
    each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or RPM package:

    1) Using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package
    2) MD5 checksums as provided in this announcement

    1) The internal rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the
       authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command

        rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>

       to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the
       filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it
       contains a valid signature from build@xxxxxxx with the key ID 9C800ACA.

       This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on
       RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during
       installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at
       the end of this announcement.

    2) If you need an alternative means of verification, use the md5sum
       command to verify the authenticity of the packages. Execute the command

         md5sum <filename.rpm>

       after you downloaded the file from a SUSE FTP server or its mirrors.
       Then compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the
       SUSE security announcement. Because the announcement containing the
       checksums is cryptographically signed (by security@xxxxxxx), the
       checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package if the
       signature of the announcement is valid. Note that the md5 sums
       published in the SUSE Security Announcements are valid for the
       respective packages only. Newer versions of these packages cannot be
       verified.

  - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may
    subscribe:
