[USN-404-1] MadWifi vulnerability

=========================================================== 
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-404-1           January 09, 2007
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17 vulnerability
CVE-2006-6332
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.10:
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-386            2.6.17.7-10.1
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-generic        2.6.17.7-10.1
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-powerpc        2.6.17.7-10.1
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-powerpc-smp    2.6.17.7-10.1
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-powerpc64-smp  2.6.17.7-10.1
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-sparc64        2.6.17.7-10.1
  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-sparc64-smp    2.6.17.7-10.1

After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to
effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Laurent Butti, Jerome Razniewski, and Julien Tinnes discovered that the 
MadWifi wireless driver did not correctly check packet contents when 
receiving scan replies.  A remote attacker could send a specially 
crafted packet and execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
