Linux Kernal vulnerability and Denial of Service (DoS) attack
PRE-CERT Security Advisory
==========================
* Advisory: PRE-SA-2011-03
* Released on: 13 Apr 2011
* Last updated on: 13 Apr 2011
* Affected product: Linux Kernel 2.4 and 2.6
* Impact: denial-of-service
* Origin: storage devices
* Credit: Timo Warns (PRESENSE Technologies GmbH)
* CVE Identifier: CVE-2011-1577
Summary
-------
The Linux kernel contains a vulnerability that may lead to
a denial-of-service due to corrupted partition tables on storage
devices.
The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices.
This happens independently of whether any auto-mounting is enabled or
not. The code for evaluating EFI GUID partition tables contains a buffer
overflow bug that allows to cause kernel oops resulting in a denial of
service.
Workaround
----------
Compile and use a kernel that does not evaluate EFI GUID partition
tables. The corresponding configuration key is CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION.
Solution
--------
A patch is available at
http://www.spinics.net/lists/mm-commits/msg83274.html
References
----------
When further information becomes available, this advisory will be
updated. The most recent version of this advisory is available at:

Neubot: A tool for measuring network neutrality
Violations of network neutrality is to be honest providers in studying the small print carefully - or if because of configuration errors on the part of providers at one time World-of-Warcarft no longer works properly . But if the new Linux distribution, despite a 60 Seeders now a fifth of the pay range for the home computer with drips - how can we really prove that is manipulated here?
By sharing experiences with peers the same data on other protocols whether they are transported quickly as slow, or miraculously. So you have at least a clue. It becomes difficult to figure out which node has taken place at the curb. For this we need as many measurements from as many points.
This is the principle of Neubot. The program runs in the background and conduct regular tests by connecting with servers and other Neubot users. The data is collected and made anonymous to the server Neubot sent. The result is a map of network neutrality.
Neubot is just after major revisions in the 0.3.7 for Windows, Mac and Linux released version . Alternatives to Neubot are Switzerland by the EFF (the sleeping seems to be something the last time in, and I never said to have had running honest) and the Glasnost test Measurement Labs (the web application is not nearly as comfortable as how Neubot). Otherwise, there are still Shaperprobe , more on that in a separate article.
