SuSE Security Announcement
Package: ncurses
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2000:043
Date: Friday, October 27th, 2000 17:00 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: local root compromise
Severity (1-10): 5
SuSE default package: yes
Other affected systems: systems with suid binaries linked against
ncurses
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: ncurses
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 ncurses library is used by many text/console based applications
such as mail user agents, ftp clients and other command line utilities.
A vulnerability has been found by Jouko Pynn�nen <jouko(a)solutions.fi>
in the screen handling functions: Insufficient boundary checking leads
to a buffer overflow if a user supplies a specially drafted terminfo
database file. If an ncurses-linked binary is installed setuid root,
it is possible for a local attacker to exploit this hole and gain
elevated privileges.
There are several ways to fix the problem associated with the library.
One of them would be to fix the library. However, it is not considered
unlikely that another problem (similar to the one that has just been
found) will be revealed in the future. Therefore, it is advisable to
not link setuid applications against the ncurses library. As a permanent
and cleaner fix, we do not provide update packages for the ncurses
library, but we suggest to change the modes of the relevant setuid
applications. There are three setuid-root applications contained in
SuSE-distributions:
xaos (suid root for permissions to use SVGAlib on the Linux console)
screen (does not need root privs in the latest version)
cda, contained in the xmcd program, a command line CD player. It might
need elevated privileges to access the cdrom device file.
The script attached to the email with this announcement changes the
modes of files in the SuSE distribution that match both criteria
necessary to exploit the buffer overflow in the ncurses library:
1) the binary is setuid root,
2) it is linked against libncurses.
Please save the attachment under the name "perms-ncurses.sh" and
execute it using the command `bash ./perms-ncurses.sh�.
It does:
a) Check your version of the screen program installed.
b) Changes /etc/permissions and /etc/permissions.easy to reflect
the mode changes. The original files are saved, see
/etc/permissions.* . (note: The chkstat program is being
executed by SuSEconfig, the SuSE configuration script, to set
the modes of files according to the entries in the permission
files. The files being used are /etc/permissions,
/etc/permissions.local and /etc/permissions.easy unless the
administrator changed the settings in /etc/rc.config .)
c) Changes the file modes by hand by executing
chmod 755 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xmcd/bin-Linux-$ARCH/cda \
/usr/bin/screen /usr/bin/xaos
You can download the script from the following location:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/noarch/perms-ncurses.sh
md5sum:

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: ypbind/ypclient
Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2000:042
Date: Wednesday, October 18th, 2000 19:15 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: possible remote root compromise
Severity (1-10): 8
SuSE default package: yes (starting with SuSE-6.4)
Other affected systems: Linux systems using this NIS implementation
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: ypbind/ypclient
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
Security problems have been found in the client code of the NIS
(Network Information System, aka yp - yellow pages) subsytem.
SuSE distributions before SuSE-6.1 came with the original ypbind
program, SuSE-6.2 and later included the ypbind-mt NIS client
implementation. ypbind-3.3 (the earlier version) has a format
string parsing bug if it is run in debug mode, and (discovered
by Olaf Kirch <okir(a)caldera.de>) leaks file descriptors under
certain circumstances which can lead to a DoS. In addition,
ypbind-3.3 may suffer from buffer overflows.
ypbind-mt, the software shipped with SuSE distributions starting
with SuSE-6.2, suffers from a single format string parsing bug.
Some of these bugs could allow remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code as root.
During code audit and testing it turned out that the ypbind-3.x
software in the SuSE-6.1 distribution and earlier needs a major
overhaul to make it work both reliable and secure with respect
to errors in the code. Basically, this is what happened when
Thorsten Kukuk <kukuk(a)suse.de> wrote ypbind-mt from scratch in 1998.
For the same reason, we are currently unable to produce a working
security update package which fixes the known and yet unknown (there
may be more) problems in the ypclient packages in the SuSE-6.1
distribution and older.
The only efficient workaround for the SuSE-6.1 distribution and older
against these bugs for an untrusted, hostile environment is to upgrade
to a new distribution base (SuSE-7.0 is recommended) and use the
ypclient update packages for this distribution.
As of today, there is no exploit known to exist in the wild.
For SuSE-6.2 and later distributions we provide update packages as
listed below. We recommend to download and install these packages
on systems that are NIS/yp clients.
Please note that the sources for the ypclient package are contained
within the ypserv source rpm.
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.

You have received a Security Announcement about traceroute already.
An update package in the 6.4-i386 tree got confused with an older version.
This older version file has been replaced by the new file under the old
name in order to prevent the installation of an older package without the
security fixes. I apologize.
Here is the corrected advisory:

1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
The security problem in the traceroute program as shipped with SuSE
Linux distributions is completely different from the one reported on
security mailing lists a few days ago (`traceroute -g 1 -g 1') by
Pekka Savola <pekkas(a)netcore.fi>. SuSE distributions do not contain
this particular traceroute implementation.
The problem in our traceroute was discovered independently and reported
to us by H D Moore <hdm(a)secureaustin.com>. The problem in the
implementation of traceroute that we ship is a format string parsing
bug in a routine that can be used to terminate a line in traceroute's
output to easily embed the program in cgi scripts as used for web
frontends for traceroute.
Using a specially crafted sequence of characters on the commandline,
it is possile to trick the traceroute program into running arbitrary
code as root.
If you want to temporarily work around this security vulnerability,
you can disable traceroute for normal users by clearing the suid bit on
the file /usr/sbin/traceroute: chmod -s /usr/sbin/traceroute . Do not
forget to change the respective line in /etc/permissions to read:
/usr/sbin/traceroute root.root 755
We have prepared update packages on our ftp server that eliminate the
vulnerability in the traceroute program. Note that the traceroute program
is contained in the nkita or the nkitb package, depending on the
distribution version. Distributions starting with SuSE-6.4 contain the
traceroute program in the nkitb package which is not required by the
boot process and therefore counts as an additional package.
Download the update package from locations described below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Fhv 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: gnorpm
Advisory-ID: SuSE-SA:2000:040
Date: Monday, October 16th, 2000 15:45 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: tmp race / local file overwrite
Severity (1-10): 4
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: Systems using gnorpm
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: gnorpm
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
gnorpm is a graphical user interface to the rpm subsystem for the
gnome desktop.
Insecure temporary file handling may cause the gnorpm package to
overwrite arbitrary files on the system. As a workaround solution
it is recommended to make sure that no active user processes on the
system while performing software updates with gnorpm. This can be
accomplished by bringing the linux system down to runlevel 1
(multi-user without network) and starting the network by hand
(rci4l_hardware start; rci4l start;rcnetwork start; rcroute start).
IMPORTANT NOTE:
SuSE provides update packages for the vulnerable gnorpm package.
However, tests have revealed that the new gnorpm version from Alan Cox
does not work reliably with the rpm subsystem in older SuSE
distributions. Adding patches to these gnorpm versions has proven to
not increase the reliability of the package either. For this reason we
do not provide update packages for the SuSE distributions prior to
(and including) SuSE-6.3. Please update your system to a more recent
base installation (SuSE-7.0 recommended) or use the workaround as
described above if you need to use gnorpm in a multi user and possibly
hostile environment.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Fhv 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: cfengine
Date: Wednesday, October 11th, 2000 19:15 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 5.3, 6.0, 6.1, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: remote (root) compromise
Severity (1-10): 5
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: Linux systems using the pam_smb module
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: pam_smb
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
GNU cfengine is an abstract programming language for system
administrators of large heterogeneous networks, used for maintenance
and administration. Pekka Savola <pekkas(a)netcore.fi> has found several
format string vulnerabilities in syslog() calls that can be abused to
either make the cfengine program to segfault and die or to execute
arbitrary commands as the user the cfengine process runs as (usually
root).
The cfengine package is not installed per default, and not activated
when installed. Thus, the vulnerability affects only systems where the
administrator actively uses this tool.
The only efficient fix for the problem is an update of the cfengine
package since access restrictions limit the attack possibilities to
a closed group of hosts/users only.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Fhv 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:
- gnorpm
A race condition has been found in the gnorpm program, a GUI for
the rpm system. The issue will be addressed in a following advisory.
<p> - ncurses
The ncurses library contains buffer overflows that are exploitable
when user-supplied terminfo databases are processed. This imposes a
security risk on programs/binaries that are linked against libncurses
and run with special privileges. Both workaround and clean solution
is to remove the suid bit from all executable files with setuid bit
set.
The issue will be addressed in a following security announcement.
<p> - apache mod_rewrite, php
A bug has been discovered in the apache package that allows attackers
to read arbitrary files on a system that runs apache. The responsible
apache module named "mod_rewrite" is not used by default on SuSE
installations of the apache package. The issue will be addressed in
a following security announcement.
<p> - usermode/userhelper
userhelper is a suid helper program designed to let the user who
is logged on to the console execute some programs with root
privileges. SuSE distributions do not contain the usermode package
and therefore are not vulnerable to the security problems recently
discovered in the usermode package.
<p> - tmpwatch
The tmpwatch packages as shipped with SuSE distributions are not
vulnerable to the attacks as discussed on security forums because
we ship an older version that does not provide the functionality
that can be exploited.
<p> - lprNG
The versions of the lprNG package that come with SuSE distributions
are not vulnerable to the format string parsing errors as discussed
in security forums.
<p> - traceroute
The traceroute program has been found vulnerable to a bug
(`traceroute -g 1 -g 1') in many distributions. Newer SuSE
distributions have a different implementation of the traceroute
program and are not vulnerable to the bug found by
Pekka Savola <pekkas(a)netcore.fi>. The vulnerability could not be
verified in older SuSE distributions.

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: esound
Date: Wednesday, October 11th, 2000 19:00 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: local user compromise
Severity (1-10): 3
SuSE default package: yes
Other affected systems: Linux systems using esound with unix domain
socket support
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: esound
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
esound, a daemon program for the Gnome desktop, is used for sound replay
by various programs such as windowmanagers and other applications.
The esound daemon creates a directory /tmp/.esd to host a unix domain
socket. Upon startup, the daemon changes the modes of the socket, but
a race condition allows an attacker to place a symlink into the
directory to point to an arbitrary file belonging to the victim. By
consequence, an attacker may be able to change the permissions of any
file belonging to the victim. If the victim's userid is root, the
attacker may be able to change the modes of any file in the system.
SuSE distributions before SuSE-6.3 were not vulnerable to this attack
because unix domain sockets were not supported by the esound daemon as
shipped with these distributions.
The only efficient solution for the problem is to store the unix domain
socket in a directory where only the user has write access to. The
user's home directory is such a location.
Update packages that fix the race conditions by placing the sockets into
the user's home directory are available for download. It is recommended
to apply the fix on systems where multiple users can access the local
filesystem.
Note: Not all filesystems support unix domain sockets. The fix might
not work if the user's home directory is on such a filesystem
(such as AFS, eg.). In such rare cases, administrators are usually
aware of such limitations. SuSE default installations do not have
this limitation.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Fhv 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:
- gnorpm
A race condition has been found in the gnorpm program, a GUI for
the rpm system. The issue will be addressed in a following
announcement.
<p> - ncurses
The ncurses library contains buffer overflows that are exploitable
when user-supplied terminfo databases are processed. This imposes a
security risk on programs/binaries that are linked against libncurses
and run with special privileges. Both workaround and clean solution
is to remove the suid bit from all executable files with setuid bit
set.
The issue will be addressed in a following security announcement.
<p> - apache mod_rewrite
A bug has been discovered in the apache package that allows attackers
to read arbitrary files on a system that runs apache. The responsible
apache module named "mod_rewrite" is not used by default on SuSE
installations of the apache package. The issue will be addressed in
a following security announcement.
<p> - cfengine
A format string parsing bug causes the cfengine package to be
vulnerable to a remote root attack. Update packages are available,
the security announcement is pending.
<p> - usermode/userhelper
userhelper is a suid helper program designed to let the user who
is logged on to the console execute some programs with root
privileges. SuSE distributions do not contain the usermode package
and therefore are not vulnerable to the security problems recently
discovered in the usermode package.
<p> - tmpwatch
The tmpwatch packages as shipped with SuSE distributions are not
vulnerable to the attacks as discussed on security forums because
we ship an older version that does not provide the functionality
that can be exploited.
<p> - lprNG
The versions of the lprNG package that come with SuSE distributions
are not vulnerable to the format string parsing errors as discussed
in security forums.
<p> - traceroute
The traceroute program has been found vulnerable to a bug
(`traceroute -g 1 -g 1') in many distributions. Newer SuSE
distributions have a different implementation of the traceroute
program and are not vulnerable to the bug found by
Pekka Savola <pekkas(a)netcore.fi>. The vulnerability could not be
verified in older SuSE distributions.

Dear reader,
Many customers have asked to publish the packages of the SuSE-7.0
distribution that are not included in the US version due to US crypto
regulations.
With <arch> being one out of i386, ia64, sparc, axp or ppc, the directory
<a href="ftp://ftp.suse.de/pub/suse/<arch">ftp://ftp.suse.de/pub/suse/<arch</a>>/7.0/
now contains all RPM packages that contain cryptographic software, along
with the source RPMs.
Please note that this directory will be removed again as soon as the
German FTP version of the SuSE distribution is being released. This should
happen in a few weeks from now.
The file ftp://ftp.suse.de/pub/suse/md5sum.crypto-packages-7.0 is
pgp-signed with the SuSE Security Team <security(a)suse.de>.
Thank you,
Roman Drahtmüller.

SuSE Security Announcement
Package: syslogd/klogd
Date: Wednesday, September 20th, 2000 03:00 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.1 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: local DoS, possible root compromise
Severity (1-10): 5
SuSE default package: yes
Other affected systems: Linux systems, possibly unix systems
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: syslogd/klogd
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 syslogd package consists of two daemons that are being launched upon
system startup: klogd and syslogd. The former collects kernel messages
and passes them on to the syslog(3) facility. syslogd will pick up the
logging messages and write them to the logfiles as specified by the
syslogd configuration file /etc/syslog.conf. Errors in both the klogd
and the syslogd can cause both daemons do die when specially designed
strings get passed to the kernel by the user, eg. with a malformed
structure in a system call. These errors have been discovered by Jouko
Pynnönen, Solar Designer, a fix for one of the bugs has been provided
by Daniel Jacobowitz.
There is currently no known way to exploit these bugs with an
effect other than a DoS (Denial of Service) of the syslog/klog service.
Since it may be possible to execute arbitrary code as a result of a
buffer overflow, administrators should consider applying the patches
as soon as possible. Also, logging messages resulting from firewall
rules in the kernel can get lost if the daemon does not pick them up.
Efficient temporary countermeasures against these attacks other than
package upgrade do not exist.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Fhv 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: pam_smb
Date: Wednesday, September 13th, 2000 18:00 MEST
Affected SuSE versions: 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
Vulnerability Type: remote root compromise
Severity (1-10): 8
SuSE default package: no
Other affected systems: Linux systems using the pam_smb module
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: pam_smb
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
pam_smb is a package for a PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) module
that allows Linux/Unix user authentication using a Windows NT server.
Versions 1.1.5 and before contain a buffer overflow that would allow
a remote attacker to gain root access on the target host, provided that
the target host has the module installed and configured. The bug was
found by Shaun Clowes <shaun(a)securereality.com.au>, and a new, fixed
version of the package was promptly published by Dave Airlie
<airlied(a)samba.org>, the author of the pam_smb package.
SuSE distributions starting with SuSE-6.2 have the package pam_smb
installed if a network server installation configuration has been
selected or if the package has been selected manually. To find out
if the PAM module is installed, use the command `rpm -q pam_smb'.
If the module package is not installed, your host does not exhibit
the weakness.
If you do not use the pam_smb module, you can safely remove it using the
command `rpm -e pam_smb'. SuSE provides update packages with the latest
version of pam_smb. If you do use the module, you should upgrade the
package as soon as possible.
There is currently no easy workaround for this problem other than a
package upgrade.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Fhv 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:
- zope
Zope is contained in SuSE-7.0, i386 Intel and Sparc Platforms only.
A permission problem can lead to users given extra roles for the
duration of a single request by mutating the roles list as a part
of the request processing. Please update the package from our ftp
server using the commands as described above in section 1).
Considering the moderate severity of the problem and the noise on
the security mailing lists, we do not provide a seperate security
advisory to address this problem.

<p> - xchat
The xchat IRC client may be tricked to execute arbitrary commands
if the user clicks on an URL. We will provide an update package
shortly. Please note that this kind of problem is rather common
and will be addressed soon in a future advisory for another package.
<p> - IMP
IMP is a webmail application to allow users to read and write their
email in a browser. Security problems have been found that would
allow attackers to run arbitrary commands on the webserver running
IMP.
SuSE does not ship IMP or the Apache module "horde" that IMP is
based on.
