by Hubertus A. Haniel 21 Oct '05

Apache2 update
by suse＠karsites.net 21 Oct '05

21 Oct '05

Hi there. I have just done an update with YOU. I'm still having a problem with the apache2 update overwriting my /etc/sysconfig/apache2 configuration file. Can the guys at SuSE please sort this. I would like to set up an automatic update with YOU, that will leave my sysconfig files alone. Does anyone else on the list have this problem when updating apache2? Kind Regards - Keith

Firewall error...
by Andy 19 Oct '05

19 Oct '05

Hi, Suse 9.1. I'm trying to redirect all request to port 5905 to IP:192.168.0.10:5901. Did this: FW_FORWARD_MASQ="0.0.0.0/0,192.168.0.10,tcp,5905,5901" The forward works well but I receive always this error in the log files: Oct 19 08:52:04 linux kernel: SFW2-OUTPUT-ERROR IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.0.30 DST=192.168.0.11 LEN=68 TOS=0x00 PREC=0xC0 TTL=64 ID=50253 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=5 CODE=1 GATEWAY=192.168.0.10 [SRC=192.168.0.11 DST=192.168.0.10 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=39644 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=4426 DPT=5901 WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0 ] Why???

SuSE 9.1 + quota = deadlock
by Christopher Lenzberger 18 Oct '05

18 Oct '05

we are running suse 9.1 using userquota but something strange happens when a user reaches his limit (for example with vsftpd). the task accessing the file hangs in state "D" - no access to the directory is possible. kill or killall won't help - only rebooting the machine helps until a user reaches his limit again... seems to be an old known bug - but this one should be already fixed?!? currently we are running: Linux version 2.6.5-7.201-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux)) #1 Thu Aug 25 06:20:45 UTC 2005 please help - thank u!

Re: [suse-security] Strange server crash
by suse＠karsites.net 18 Oct '05

Could it be a DOS attack from somewhere ? Not nit-picking but if you do 'free -m -s5' that will return the memory usage in MB's - a bit easier to understand I think ;-).

SUSE Security Announcement: OpenWBEM (SUSE-SA:2005:060)
by krahmer＠suse.de 17 Oct '05

17 Oct '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SUSE Security Announcement Package: OpenWBEM Announcement ID: SUSE-SA:2005:060 Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2005 11:00:00 +0000 Affected Products: SUSE SLES 9 Open-Enterprise-Server 9 Vulnerability Type: remote code execution Severity (1-10): 8 SUSE Default Package: no Cross-References: Content of This Advisory: 1) Security Vulnerability Resolved: remotely exploitable buffer overflow Problem Description 2) Solution or Work-Around 3) Special Instructions and Notes 4) Package Location and Checksums 5) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: none 6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) Problem Description and Brief Discussion The SUSE Security Team performed a security review of important parts of the OpenWBEM system. During the audit, several integer wrap arounds and buffer overflows have been discovered and fixed. If exploited, they allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. 2) Solution or Work-Around 3) Special Instructions and Notes After successfully installing the updates you have to issue the following command as root: /usr/sbin/rcowcimomd restart 4) Package Location and Checksums The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST Online Update (YOU) tool. YOU detects which updates are required and automatically performs the necessary steps to verify and install them. Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this announcement. Then install the packages using the command rpm -Fhv <file.rpm> to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the downloaded RPM package. Our maintenance customers are notified individually. The packages are offered for installation from the maintenance web: http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?psdb/25258ab3ab19e06… http://portal.suse.com/psdb/25258ab3ab19e0642be41de4f518cee3.html ______________________________________________________________________________ 5) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: none ______________________________________________________________________________ 6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information - Announcement authenticity verification: SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE security announcements are published with a valid signature. To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file and run the command gpg --verify <file> replacing <file> with the name of the file where you saved the announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like: gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9 gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security(a)suse.de>" where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed. If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the command gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc - Package authenticity verification: SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. There are two verification methods that can be used independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or RPM package: 1) Using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package 2) MD5 checksums as provided in this announcement 1) The internal rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm> to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it contains a valid signature from build(a)suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA. This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at the end of this announcement. 2) If you need an alternative means of verification, use the md5sum command to verify the authenticity of the packages. Execute the command md5sum <filename.rpm> after you downloaded the file from a SUSE FTP server or its mirrors. Then compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the SUSE security announcement. Because the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (by security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package if the signature of the announcement is valid. Note that the md5 sums published in the SUSE Security Announcements are valid for the respective packages only. Newer versions of these packages cannot be verified. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - General Linux and SUSE security discussion.
