I may have found a security problem in SuSE personal firewall 1.1-4. Other versions might be affected as well. Description: condition: REJECT_ALL_INCOMING_CONNECTIONS=modem in /etc/rc.config.d/security.rc.config affected file: /sbin/SuSEpersonal-firewall In line 310 RAIC is set to "ppp*". This is later passed to iptables (or ipchains) as interface parameter leading to the warning "Warning: wierd character in interface `ppp*' (No aliases, :, ! or *)." in the log. fix: Set RAIC to "ppp+" instead. the "+" is the proper wildcard for the iptables and ipchains commands. Questions: Is this in fact a bug or did I miss something? Was a proper rule for the ppp* (ppp0, ppp1, ...) interface created? I did not check.
