Stefan Esser of e-matters reported a "double free" bug in CVS server code for handling directory requests. This free() call allows an attacker with CVS read access to compromise a CVS server. Additionally two features ('Update-prog' and 'Checkin-prog') were disabled to stop clients with write access to execute arbitrary code on the server. These features may be configurable at run-time in future releases of CVS server. There is no temporary fix known other then disable public access to the CVS server. You do not need to update the cvs package as long as you need 'Update-prog' and 'Checkin-prog' feature and work in a trusted environment. Otherwise install the new packages from our FTP servers please. Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

The buffer overflows can lead to system compromise. New packages are currently being build. - gfxboot Since SuSE 8.1 the bootloader lilo is replaced by grub. Grub's password authentication can be bypassed. New packages will be released soon. - mod_php4 A buffer overflow in the wordwrap() function has been reported. New packages will be prepared and should be available on our ftp servers soon. - wget A buffer overflow in wget's url_filename function was found. This buffer overflow can be triggered by long URLs. New packages are currently being build and will be released soon. - IMP The web front-end of IMP is vulnerable to a SQL injection attack. New packages are currently being build and will be released soon. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information - Package authenticity verification: SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. 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) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.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 announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) 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, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build(a)suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion.

An internal source code audit done by ISC revealed several buffer overflows in the code which is responsible to handle dynamic DNS requests. These bugs allow an attacker to gain remote access to the dhcp server if the dynamic DNS feature is enabled. Dynamic DNS is not enabled by default on SuSE Linux. As temporary fix you can disable dynamic DNS support and restart your dhcp server. Otherwise install the new packages from our FTP servers. Please backup your lease file before updating the package. After the package update you have to restart the dhcp server This can be done by executing the following commands as root: - rcdhcpd restart or (for older versions): - rcdhcp restart Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement.

New packages are available on our FTP servers. - xpdf An integer overflow in pdftops may lead to system compromise. New packages are available on our FTP servers.. - libmcrypt Several buffer overflows in libmcrypt were discovered by Ilia Alshanetsky. The buffer overflows can lead to system compromise. New packages are currently being build. - gfxboot Since SuSE 8.1 the bootloader lilo is replaced by grub. Grub's password authentication can be bypassed. New packages will be released soon. - mod_php4 A buffer overflow in the wordwrap() function has been reported. New packages will be prepared and should be available on our ftp servers soon. - wget A buffer overflow in wget's url_filename function was found. This buffer overflow can be triggered by long URLs. New packages are currently being build and will be released soon. - IMP The web front-end of IMP is vulnerable to a SQL injection attack. New packages are currently being build and will be released soon. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information - Package authenticity verification: SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. 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) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.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 announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) 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, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build(a)suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: susehelp Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2003:005 Date: Mon Jan 20 14:00:00 CET 2003 Affected products: SuSE Linux 8.1, SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, SuSE Linux Office Server, SuSE Linux Openexchange Server 4 Vulnerability Type: remote command execution Severity (1-10): 5 SuSE default package: no Cross References: - Content of this advisory: 1) security vulnerability resolved: Remote command execution due to broken filtering of shell metacharacters in CGI queries. problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information 2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds: mod_php4 3) standard appendix (further information) ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information During a code review of the susehelp package the SuSE Security Team recognized that the security checks done by the susehelp CGI scripts are insufficient. Remote attackers can insert certain characters in CGI queries to the susehelp system tricking it into executing arbitrary code as the "wwwrun" user. Please note that this is only a vulnerability if you have a web server running and configured to allow access to the susehelp system by remote sites. We nevertheless recommend an update of this package. As a temporary workaround you may un-install the susehelp package by issuing the following command as root: rpm -e --nodeps susehelp Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: libpng Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2003:0004 Date: Tuesday, Jan 14th 2003 11:00 MEST Affected products: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 8.1 SuSE Linux Database Server SuSE eMail Server 3.1 SuSE eMail Server III SuSE Firewall Adminhost VPN SuSE Linux Admin-CD for Firewall SuSE Firewall on CD 2 - VPN SuSE Firewall on CD 2 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server for S/390 SuSE Linux Connectivity Server SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 SuSE Linux Office Server UnitedLinux 1.0 Vulnerability Type: possible remote compromise Severity (1-10): 4 SuSE default package: yes Cross References: CAN-2002-1363 Content of this advisory: 1) security vulnerability resolved: wrong offset calculation problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information 2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds: - fam - xpdf - libmcrypt 3) standard appendix (further information) ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information The library libpng provides several functions to encode, decode and manipulate Portable Network Graphics (PNG) image files. Due to wrong calculation of some loop offset values a buffer overflow can occur. The buffer overflow can lead to Denial-of-Service or even to remote compromise. After updating libpng all applications that use libpng should be restarted. Due to the fact that a lot of applications are linked with libpng it may be necessary to switch to runlevel S and back to the previous runlevel or even to reboot the system. There is no temporary fix known. Please install the new packages from our FTP servers. Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

New fam packages are build and will be released right after quality assurance permits. - xpdf An integer overflow in pdftops may lead to system compromise. New packages are currently being build. - libmcrypt Several buffer overflows in libmcrypt were discovered by Ilia Alshanetsky. The buffer overflows can lead to system compromise. New packages are currently being build. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information - Package authenticity verification: SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. 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) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.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 announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) 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, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build(a)suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion. All SuSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an email to <suse-security-subscribe(a)suse.com>. suse-security-announce(a)suse.com - SuSE's announce-only mailing list.

SuSE Security Announcement: mysql (SuSE-SA:2003:003)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: mysql Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2003:003 Date: Thu Jan 2 15:00:00 MET 2003 Affected products: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 8.1, SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7, SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, SuSE Linux Connectivity Server, SuSE Linux Office Server, UnitedLinux 1.0 Vulnerability Type: remote command execution Severity (1-10): 6 SuSE default package: no Cross References: http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/042002.html Content of this advisory: 1) security vulnerability resolved: Signedness issue and password checking in mysqld, buffer overflow in mysqlclient library. problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information 2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds: grub 3) standard appendix (further information) ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information Stefan Esser from e-matters reported various bugs in MySQL. Within the MySQL server the password checking and a signedness issue has been fixed. These could lead to a remote compromise of the system running an unpatched MySQL server. In order to exploit this bug, the remote attacker needs a valid MySQL account. Further, a buffer overflow in the mysqlclient library has been reported and fixed. Applications using this library (as commonly used from within PHP scripts) are vulnerable to this attack and could also be compromised by remote attackers. Since there is no workaround possible except shutting down the MySQL server, we strongly recommend an update. Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web. To be sure the update takes effect you have to restart the MySQL server by executing the following command as root: /etc/rc.d/mysql restart If you run applications which utilize the mysqlclient library (i.e. software that accesses a MySQL database server) make sure you restart them again to force the use of the patched libraries. We thank MySQL Product and Release Engineer Lenz Grimmer as well as e-matters Stefan Esser who discovered the bugs for their committment to security matters and the communication of them. i386 Intel

manager allows users with physical access to the terminal to circumvent the password protection from grub. Fixed packages will soon be available. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information - Package authenticity verification: SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. 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) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.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 announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) 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, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build(a)suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: cups Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2003:002 Date: Thursday, Jan 2nd 2003 09:30 MEST Affected products: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 8.1 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 UnitedLinux 1.0 Vulnerability Type: local and remote privilege escalation Severity (1-10): 7 SuSE default package: since 8.1: yes prior 8.1: no Cross References: CAN-2002-1366 CAN-2002-1367 CAN-2002-1368 CAN-2002-1369 CAN-2002-1371 CAN-2002-1372 CAN-2002-1383 CAN-2002-1384 Content of this advisory: 1) security vulnerability resolved: several bugs problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information 2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds: - none 3) standard appendix (further information) ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information CUPS is a well known and widely used printing system for unix-like systems. iDFENSE reported several security issues with CUPS that can lead to local and remote root compromise. The following list includes all vulnerabilities: - integer overflow in HTTP interface to gain remote access with CUPS privileges - local file race condition to gain root (bug mentioned above has to be exploited first) - remotely add printers - remote denial-of-service attack due to negative length in memcpy() call - integer overflow in image handling code to gain higher privileges - gain local root due to buffer overflow of 'options' buffer - design problem to gain local root (needs added printer, see above) - wrong handling of zero width images can be abused to gain higher privileges - file descriptor leak and denial-of-service due to missing checks of return values of file/socket operations Since SuSE 8.1 CUPS is the default printing system. As a temporary workaround CUPS can be disabled and an alternative printing system like LPRng can be installed instead. New CUPS packages are available on our FTP servers. Please, install them to fix your system. Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. 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) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.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 announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) 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, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build(a)suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion. All SuSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an email to <suse-security-subscribe(a)suse.com>. suse-security-announce(a)suse.com - SuSE's announce-only mailing list.

Stefan Esser of e-matters reported a bug in fetchmail's mail address expanding code which can lead to remote system compromise. When fetchmail expands email addresses in mail headers it doesn not allocated enough memory. An attacker can send a malicious formatted mail header to exhaust the memory allocated by fetchmail to overwrite parts of the heap. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary code. There is no temporary fix known. Please install the new packages from our FTP servers. Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. 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) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.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 announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security(a)suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) 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, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build(a)suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion.
