SuSE Security Announcement
Package: hylafax
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2001:15
Date: Friday, April 20th, 2001 10.26 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: [6.1, 6.2,] 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, 7.1
Vulnerability Type: local root compromise
Severity (1-10): 7
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: all systems using hylafax
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: hylafax
problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
The HylaFax program hfaxd(8c) implements the server part of the
HylaFax package. It is started either by inetd(8) or runs in
standalone mode. hfaxd(8c) offers three different protocols to
process fax jobs.
When hfaxd(8c) tries to change to it's queue directory and fails,
it prints an error message via syslog by directly passing user
supplied data as format string. As long as hfaxd(8c) is installed
setuid root, this behavior could be exploited to gain root access
locally.
As a workaround remove the setuid bit:
/bin/chmod u-s /usr/lib/fax/hfaxd
or restrict access to trusted users only:
/bin/chown root.trusted /usr/lib/fax/hfaxd
/bin/chmod 4750 /usr/lib/fax/hfaxd
Download the update package from locations described below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
files using the command
`rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
independently from the md5 signatures below.

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: nedit
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2001:14
Date: Wednesday, April 18th, 2001 13.06 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: [6.1, 6.2] 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, 7.1
Vulnerability Type: locoal privilege escalation
Severity (1-10): 3
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: all systems using nedit
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: nedit
problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
The Nirvana Editor, NEdit, is a GUI-style text editor based on popular
Macintosh and MS Windows editors.
When printing a whole text or selected parts of a text, nedit(1) creates
a temporary file in an insecure manner. This behavior could be exploited
to gain access to other users privileges, even root.
There is no workaround possible, because tmpnam(3) ignores the TMPDIR
environment variable. Just install the new RPM to fix this problem.
Download the update package from locations described below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
files using the command
`rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
independently from the md5 signatures below.

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: sudo
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2001:13
Date: Wednesday, April 18th, 2001 12.26 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, 7.1
Vulnerability Type: possible local root compromise
Severity (1-10): 6
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: all systems using sudo
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: sudo
problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
The setuid application sudo(8) allows a user to execute commands under
the privileges of another user (including root).
sudo(8) previous to version 1.6.3p6 is vulnerable by a buffer overflow
in it's logging code, which could lead to local root compromise.
There is no exploit known to be public.
A useful workaround isn't possible, the only fix is to install the new
sudo packages.
Download the update package from locations described below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
files using the command
`rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
independently from the md5 signatures below.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- New RPMs for HylaFax, a Fax Server, are currently being build, which
fix a format bug in hfaxd, which could lead to local root privilege.
- NEdit a GUI-style text editor needs an update due to a tmp race
condition. The source code is currently being reviewed and new
RPMs will be available within the next days.
- Updated man RPMs will be available in a few days.
- In the past weeks, some security related bugs in the Linux kernel 2.2
and 2.4 were found. An announcement, that addresses this will be
released this week.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- We are in the process of preparing update packages for the man package
which has been found vulnerable to a commandline format string bug.
The man command is installed suid man on SuSE systems. When exploited,
the bug can be used to install a different man binary to introduce a
trojan into the system. As an interim workaround, we recommend to
`chmod -s /usr/bin/manŽ and ignore the warnings and errors when
viewing manpages.
- A bufferoverflow in sudo was discovered and fixed RPMs will be
available as soon as possible. A exploit was not made public until
now.
- NEdit a GUI-style text editor needs an update due to a tmp race
condition. The source code is currently being reviewed and new
RPMs will be available within the next days.

3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
The Midnight Commander, mc(1), is a ncurses-based file manager.
A local attacker could trick mc(1) into executing commands with
the privileges of the user running mc(1) by creating malicious
directory names. This attack leads to local privilege escalation.
There does no workaround exist. The only solution is to update the
mc package.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
files using the command
`rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
independently from the md5 signatures below.

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: xntp
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2001:10
Date: Monday, April 9th 22:30 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: (6.0, 6.1, 6.2), 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, 7.1
Vulnerability Type: remote root compromise
Severity (1-10): 8
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: systems using xntp in newer versions
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: xntp
problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
xntp is the network time protocol package widely used with many unix
and linux systems for system time synchronization over a network.
An exploit published by Przemyslaw Frasunek demonstrates a buffer
overflow in the control request parsing code. The exploit allows a
remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as root. All versions as
shipped with SuSE Linux are affected by the buffer overflow problem.
A temporary workaround is to kill the daemon and to set the variable
START_XNTPD in the file /etc/rc.config to "no" so that the daemon
will not be started again upon reboot of the system. Correct the system
time manually if necessary or adjust the time by running ntpdate from
a cron job on a regular basis.
We believe that this problem is generally underestimated since the
xntpd daemon tends to get forgotten over the years of a system's life-
time once installed and configured. The xntpd daemon is not started by
default in SuSE Linux distributions. We strongly recommend to immediately
update the xntp package on each system where the daemon is installed,
configured and running.
Note:
The xntp update packages for most distributions have been available
for download since Friday last week. The packages for all 6.4 and 7.0
version distributions had to be rebuilt due to a specfile bug that
did not show up earlier and that caused a delay in building packages.
This bug causes the rpm subsystem to complain about the release number
of the package. Now that this bug is corrected, you might find yourself
having installed a package where there is a newer version of the package
on the ftp server. However, regardless of the package release number,
all published packages fix the currently known security problems in the
xntpd network time daemon.
Note:
The source rpm of xntp in newer distributions generates two packages:
xntp.rpm and xntpdoc.rpm. It is not necessary to update the xntpdoc
package which is why we do not provide the update packages on our ftp
server. The xntpdoc package only contains the documentation for the
xntp package and did not change in this updated package.
<p> Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
files using the command
`rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
independently from the md5 signatures below.
SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
==============================
The xntpd daemon must be restarted for the new package to become
active after the installation of the update rpm. You can do this
by running the command
kill -15 `pidof xntpd`
as root. After performing the upgrade using the rpm command above,
you can restart the xntpd:
rcxntpd start
You should now see the new daemon synchronizing in your syslogs,
depending on where you configured the daemon to write its logs to.
