The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory RHSA-2009:0361.
NetworkManager is a network link manager that attempts to keep a wired or
wireless network connection active at all times.
An information disclosure flaw was found in NetworkManagerβs D-Bus
interface. A local attacker could leverage this flaw to discover sensitive
information, such as network connection passwords and pre-shared keys.
(CVE-2009-0365)
A potential denial of service flaw was found in NetworkManagerβs D-Bus
interface. A local user could leverage this flaw to modify local connection
settings, preventing the systemβs network connection from functioning
properly. (CVE-2009-0578)
Red Hat would like to thank Ludwig Nussel for reporting these flaws
responsibly.
Users of NetworkManager should upgrade to these updated packages which
contain backported patches to correct these issues.
