Synopsis: Moderate: avahi security update
Issue date: 2010-07-13
CVE Names: CVE-2009-0758 CVE-2010-2244
A flaw was found in the way the Avahi daemon (avahi-daemon) processed
Multicast DNS (mDNS) packets with corrupted checksums. An attacker on
the local network could use this flaw to cause avahi-daemon on a target
system to exit unexpectedly via specially-crafted mDNS packets.
(CVE-2010-2244)
A flaw was found in the way avahi-daemon processed incoming unicast mDNS
messages. If the mDNS reflector were enabled on a system, an attacker on
the local network could send a specially-crafted unicast mDNS message to
that system, resulting in its avahi-daemon flooding the network with a
multicast packet storm, and consuming a large amount of CPU. Note: The
mDNS reflector is disabled by default. (CVE-2009-0758)
After installing the update, avahi-daemon will be restarted automatically.
