3. Problem Description 

   a. Bash update for multiple products.

      Bash libraries have been updated in multiple products to resolve 
      multiple critical security issues, also referred to as Shellshock.
  
      The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
      has assigned the identifiers CVE-2014-6271, CVE-2014-7169, 
      CVE-2014-7186, and CVE-2014-7187, CVE-2014-6277, CVE-2014-6278 
      to these issues.

      VMware products have been grouped into the following four
      product categories:
      
      I) ESXi and ESX Hypervisor
      ESXi is not affected because ESXi uses the Ash shell (through
      busybox), which is not affected by the vulnerability reported
      for the Bash shell.
      ESX has an affected version of the Bash shell. See table 1 for
      remediation for ESX.
    
      II) Windows-based products
      Windows-based products, including all versions of vCenter Server 
      running on Windows, are not affected.

      III) VMware (virtual) appliances
      VMware (virtual) appliances ship with an affected version of Bash. 
      See table 2 for remediation for appliances.
      
      IV) Products that run on Linux, Android, OSX or iOS (excluding 
      virtual appliances)

      Products that run on Linux, Android, OSX or iOS (excluding 
      virtual appliances) might use the Bash shell that is part of the
      operating system. If the operating system has a vulnerable
      version of Bash, the Bash security vulnerability might be
      exploited through the product. VMware recommends that customers
      contact their operating system vendor for a patch.    
      
      MITIGATIONS

      VMware encourages restricting access to appliances through
      firewall rules and other network layer controls to only trusted IP
      addresses. This measure will greatly reduce any risk to these
      appliances.

      RECOMMENDATIONS

      VMware recommends customers evaluate and deploy patches for
      affected products in Table 1 and 2 below as these
      patches become available. 

      Column 4 of the following tables lists the action required to
      remediate the vulnerability in each release, if a solution is
      available.

      ESX              4.0        ESX      ESX400-201410401-SG*

      * VMware has made VMware ESX 4.0 and 4.1 security patches available 
      for the Bash shell vulnerability. This security patch release is an 
      exception to the existing VMware lifecycle policy.

   * This product has patches available to update bash manually as well as
a full 
   installation that includes the bash fix for some versions. Either
installing 
   the patch or upgrading the appliance will remediate the "shellshock" 
   vulnerability. See documentation in Section 4 for details.

   ** This product includes Virtual Appliances that will be updated, the
product 
   itself is not a Virtual Appliance.

Mandos Encrypted File System Unattended Reboot Utility 1.6.9

The Mandos system allows computers to have encrypted root file systems and at the same time be capable of remote or unattended reboots. The computers run a small client program in the initial RAM disk environment which will communicate with a server over a network. All network communication is encrypted using TLS. The clients are identified by the server using an OpenPGP key that is unique to each client. The server sends the clients an encrypted password. The encrypted password is decrypted by the clients using the same OpenPGP key, and the password is then used to unlock the root file system.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1359-01

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1359-01 – Polkit-qt is a library that lets developers use the PolicyKit API through a Qt-styled API. The polkit-qt library is used by the KDE Authentication Agent, which is a part of kdelibs. It was found that polkit-qt handled authorization requests with PolicyKit via a D-Bus API that is vulnerable to a race condition. A local user could use this flaw to bypass intended PolicyKit authorizations. This update modifies polkit-qt to communicate with PolicyKit via a different API that is not vulnerable to the race condition. All polkit-qt users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
