SuSE Security Announcement
Package: glibc
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2002:031
Date: Friday, Aug 30th 2002 19:00 MEST
Affected products: 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0
SuSE Linux Database Server,
SuSE eMail Server III,
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server,
SuSE Linux Firewall on CD
SuSE Linux Connectivity Server
SuSE Linux Office Server
Vulnerability Type: local/remote privilege escalation
Severity (1-10): 6
SuSE default package: yes
Cross References: CAN-2002-0391, CERT CA-2002-25
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: glibc
problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds:
- ethereal
3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
An integer overflow has been discovered in the xdr_array() function,
contained in the Sun Microsystems RPC/XDR library, which is part of
the glibc library package on all SuSE products. This overflow allows
a remote attacker to overflow a buffer, leading to remote execution of
arbitrary code supplied by the attacker.
There is no temporary workaround for this security problem other than
disabling all RPC based server and client programs. The permanent
solution is to update the glibc packages with the update packages
listed below.
Notes, Special installation instructions:
* The update packages for the SuSE Linux distributions 7.0 and 7.1
have not been built yet. The packages for these distributions will
be published in approximately two weeks (mid September) from now.
* The names of both the source RPM as well as the binary RPM (sub-)
packages have changed between different SuSE Linux products.
Overview:
dist | source-RPM | shared libs | static libs,header| profiling
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
7.0 libc shlibs libc libd
all SuSE products after and including SuSE Linux 7.1
glibc glibc glibc-devel glibc-profile
Find out which of the four packages are installed on your system
according to the package names in the table. Use the command
rpm -q name_of_package
to query the package database for each name.
If you have your package list, download the packages that you need
from the URLs as listed below. Verify their integrity and authenticity
following the guidelines as described in section 3) of this security
announcement.
* PRECAUTIONS
The shared libraries package of the glibc is the most sensitive
part of a running Linux system, and modifications to it should be
handled with special care. During the update of the shlibs/glibc
package, runtime-linking the shared libraries is likely to fail for
processes that execute a new binary with the execve(2) system call.
Therefore, we recommend to bring a system to single user mode
("init S") to perform the package update. If this is not applicable
for operational reasons, a system receiving the update should be kept
as quiet as possible (no shell scripts of any kind, no cron jobs, no
incoming email).
* After performing the update, you should run the following command
on your system:
/sbin/ldconfig
ldconfig will rebuild the runtime linker cache. If you use YOU
(Yast2 Online Update), the ldconfig command will be executed
automatically at the end of the update.
The shared libraries that were installed on the system before the
update have been removed from the filesystem, but they are still
in use by the running applications. Therefore, the diskspace as well
as the memory will not be freed until the last process that uses
these files exits. We recommend to reboot the system to workaround
this problem.
Listed below you find the URLs for the update packages for the SuSE Linux
products. We only list the packages that are relevant for the security update.
Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages
are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- ethereal
Multiple overflows and other security related problems have been found
in ethereal, a network traffic analyzer program. We have provided update
packages on our ftp server that upgrade the ethereal package to the
latest version 0.9.6. A backport of the security fixes to the versions
supplied in the released SuSE Linux products does not seem feasible.
We will not release an own announcement for this specific problem.
- postgresql
A buffer overflow has been found in the postgresql database management
system. We are about to prepare update packages for this vulnerability.
- openldap2
Andrew McCall reported a problem within the openldap2 package which could
lead to a denial of service attack against the slapd server. This problem
has been fixed. New openldap2 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 .

Vulnerability Type: local privilege escalation
Severity (1-10): 5
SuSE default package: Yes
Other affected systems: No
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: buffer overflows in ipppd
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 i4l package contains several programs for ISDN maintenance and
connectivity on Linux. The ipppd program which is part of the package
contained various buffer overflows and format string bugs. Since ipppd
is installed setuid to root and executable by users of group 'dialout'
this may allow attackers with appropriate group membership to execute
arbitrary commands as root.
The i4l package is installed by default and also vulnerable if you do
not have a ISDN setup. The buffer overflows and format string bugs have
been fixed. We strongly recommend an update of the i4l package.
If you do not consider updating the package it is also possible to
remove the setuid bit from /usr/sbin/ipppd as a temporary workaround.
The SuSE Security Team is aware of a published exploit for ipppd
that gives a local attacker root privileges so you should either update
the package or remove the setuid bit from ipppd.
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.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- docbook
In past some distributors provided updates for their docbook packages
to fix a problem within the docbook configuration-files which allowed
evil input-files to create arbitrary files within the users scope. However
the supplied configuration-fixes can easily be circumvented by offering
certain style-sheet files along with the evil input-file.
Because of this fact SuSE does not offer updates for the docbook packages
but rather strongly recommends to not process untrusted files with the
docbook utilities.
- openldap2
Andrew McCall reported a problem within the openldap2 package which could
lead to a denial of service attack against the slapd server. This problem
has been fixed. New openldap2 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 .

The openssh source tarball openssh-3.4p1.tar.gz from the openbsd ftp
server ftp.openbsd.org has been trojaned with code that opens network
connections to a server in the internet (203.62.158.32:6667) at compile
time. The backdoor does not have any influence on the runtime behaviour of
the package to our current knowlege. As of now, the package on the openbsd
ftp server has not been removed/cleaned.
The SuSE openssh package for SuSE Linux 8.0 has the same version 3.4p1,
but it is built from non-trojaned sources. Therefore, the SuSE openssh
packages are not affected by this backdoor.
We thank our users who have expressed their concerns about the backdoor
when they notified SuSE Security, and to Len Rose from
full-disclosure(a)lists.netsys.com.
Regards,
Roman Drahtmüller,
SuSE Security.

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: wwwoffle
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2002:029
Date: Thursday, Aug 1st 2002 12:30 MEST
Affected products: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0
Vulnerability Type: remote privilege escalation
Severity (1-10): 4
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: all systems using wwwoffle
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: insufficient checking of
Content Length value
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 WWWOFFLE, World Wide Web Offline Explorer, program suite acts as a
HTTP, FTP and Finger proxy to allow users with dial-up access to the
internet to do offline WWW browsing.
The parsing code of wwwoffled that processes HTTP PUT and POST requests
fails to handle a Content Length value smaller then -1. It is believed
that an attacker could exploit this bug to gain remote wwwrun access
to the system wwwoffled is running on.
The wwwoffle package is not installed by default.
As temporary workaround the wwwoffle daemon can be disabled the following
way (as root):
rcwwwoffle stop
If wwwoffled is started at boottime, you have to modify your boot
scripts too. This can be done by using the runlevel editor of yast2.
All running instances of wwwoffled need to be restarted after updating
your system (as root):
rcwwwoffle restart
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.
Missing packages will be published as soon as possible.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- bzip
The FreeBSD Team discovered some security related bugs in bzip2.
By exploiting this bugs an attacker could change file permissions or
overwrite files.
Bzip got fixed and a new version of the bzip package is available
on our FTP servers.
- pam_ldap
A "format string" bug in pam_ldap's logging functions gots fixed.
New packages are available on our FTP servers.
- chfn/util-linux
Linux distributors have published security announcements about password
locking race conditions that lead to a local root vulnerability.
SuSE products are not affected by this weakness because we use the
user/group management utilities from the shadow package. These utilities
are not affected.
- libpng
libpng is a library that provides functions for applications to handle
PNG image files (Portable Network Graphics). An overflow vulnerability
has been found in the libpng library that may make it possible for an
attacker to run arbitrary code or to crash an application that uses
the libpng library if the application in question opens a png image file.
We are in the process of fixing this vulnerability.

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:
