SuSE Security Announcement - mount

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: util < 2.10f Date: Thu Feb 10 20:03:43 CET 2000 Affected SuSE versions: all Vulnerability Type: (unlikely) local root compromise SuSE default package: yes Other affected systems: all linux systems using util < 2.10f ______________________________________________________________________________ A security hole was discovered in the package mentioned above. Please update it as soon as possible or disable the service if you are using this software on your SuSE Linux installation(s). Other Linux distributions or operating systems might be affected as well, please contact your vendor for information about this issue. Please note that we provide this information on an "as-is" basis only. There is no warranty whatsoever and no liability for any direct, indirect or incidental damage arising from this information or the installation of the update package. _____________________________________________________________________________ 1. Problem Description The mount/umount command doesn't do proper bounds checking on user input. 2. Impact If an attacker executes mount/umount with a long relative pathname, it will overwrite dynamic allocated memory of the realpath function. It is possible that an attacker could gain root privileges by modifying the heap data, however we were not able to exploit it. 3. Solution Update the package from our FTP server or remove the suid bits. ______________________________________________________________________________ Please verify these md5 checksums of the updates before installing: (For SuSE 6.0, please use the 6.1 updates) 8fffa6e7ce36b51f190652189629a2c0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.1/a1/util-2.10f-4.alpha.rpm 121bf103d58cc9e959f910a0437285bd ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.3/a1/util-2.10f-0.alpha.rpm 96166ddbe17ef1aabf6531a34e48d386 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/a1/util-2.10f-3.i386.rpm 285c0d41b2932b068fdac3f860e3446e ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/a1/util-2.10f-4.i386.rpm 452143c94bcae39ec9adc5922be9acc9 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/a1/util-2.10f-4.i386.rpm ______________________________________________________________________________ You can find updates on our ftp-Server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update for Intel processors ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update for Alpha processors or try the following web pages for a list of mirrors: http://www.suse.de/ftp.html http://www.suse.com/ftp_new.html Our webpage for patches: http://www.suse.de/patches/index.html Our webpage for security announcements: http://www.suse.de/security If you want to report vulnerabilities, please contact security(a)suse.de ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE has got two free security mailing list services to which any interested party may subscribe: use-security(a)suse.com - moderated and for general/linux/SuSE security discussions.

SuSE Security Announcement - lprold
by marc＠suse.de 14 Jan '00

14 Jan '00

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: lprold < 3.0.48 Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 13:01:16 GMT Affected SuSE versions: all including 6.3 Vulnerability Type: local and remote vulnerabilities SuSE default package: yes Other affected systems: all unix systems using lpr(-old) ______________________________________________________________________________ A security hole was discovered in the package mentioned above. Please update as soon as possible or disable the service if you are using this software on your SuSE Linux installation(s). Other Linux distributions or operating systems might be affected as well, please contact your vendor for information about this issue. Please note, that that we provide this information on an "as-is" basis only. There is no warranty whatsoever and no liability for any direct, indirect or incidental damage arising from this information or the installation of the update package. _____________________________________________________________________________ 1. Problem Description lprold is the default printer daemon. If the hosts.lpd mechanism is used to permit printing to remote hosts, this can be circumvented if the attacker controls a DNS server, because no double-reverse lookup was done the IP address. A second vulnerability involves the manipulating the control file of a print job in a way, that statements are sent to sendmail as arguments where an attacker could specify a sendmail config file of his own. 2. Impact Depending on the hosts.lpd configuration, unauthorized users may use your printer (and issue a denial of service attack). The second vulnerability leads to an easy root compromise, which can be exploited from remote. 3. Solution Update the package from our FTP server. ______________________________________________________________________________ Please verify these md5 checksums of the updates before installing: (For SuSE 6.0, please use the 6.1 updates) ea107e004f8c101421a8b3951e7237fe ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.1/n1/lprold-3.0.48-0.alpha.rpm 8a175ed07a65ef4ea9c88a408aef1e4b ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.3/n1/lprold-3.0.48-0.alpha.rpm a40c4313756d5b3870fd4bd90e74bc32 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/n1/lprold-3.0.48-0.i386.rpm 13fbf962761751a5a8eec000da26202f ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/n1/lprold-3.0.48-0.i386.rpm 52b8bc00d744995f13b4f35da2c6cb5d ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/n1/lprold-3.0.48-0.i386.rpm ______________________________________________________________________________ You can find updates on our ftp-Server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update for Intel processors ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update for Alpha processors or try the following web pages for a list of mirrors: http://www.suse.de/ftp.html http://www.suse.com/ftp_new.html Our webpage for patches: http://www.suse.de/patches/index.html Our webpage for security announcements: http://www.suse.de/security If you want to report vulnerabilities, please contact security(a)suse.de ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE has got two free security mailing list services to which any interested party may subscribe: use-security(a)suse.com - moderated and for general/linux/SuSE security discussions.

majordomo vulnerability
by marc＠suse.de 02 Jan '00

02 Jan '00

Hi, the mailinglist software "majordomo" was found having several local vulnerabilties. However, the licence of the program prohibites us providing a fix! :-( You should either remove majordomo or trust your local users until an official fix from greatcircles is available (which we will distribute for SuSE customers too then of course). Sorry guys, thats all we can do at the moment. (that problem affects all other linux and bsd distributions as well ...)

SuSE Security Announcement - wvdial

14 Dec '99

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: wvdial <= 1.4 Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 22:13:51 GMT Affected SuSE versions: all including 6.3 Vulnerability Type: possible access to dialup passwords SuSE default package: no Other affected systems: all unix systems using wvdial ______________________________________________________________________________ A security hole was discovered in the package mentioned above. Please update as soon as possible or disable the service if you are using this software on your SuSE Linux installation(s). Other Linux distributions or operating systems might be affected as well, please contact your vendor for information about this issue. Please note, that that we provide this information on an "as-is" basis only. There is no warranty whatsoever and no liability for any direct, indirect or incidental damage arising from this information or the installation of the update package. _____________________________________________________________________________ 1. Problem Description If someone uses the wvdial.lxdialog script to configure a ppp dialup, the config file /var/lib/wvdial/.config is created readable for everyone. This config file usually contains the login and password for the dialup. However, the directory where the config file is placed is only accessable to those in the "dialout" group. The default wvdial config file of SuSE, which is /etc/wvdial.conf, hasn't got this problem. 2. Impact Local users in the "dialout" group might gain access to dialup login information when the wvdial.lxdialog script is used. 3. Solution Update the package from our FTP server, or run the command below: chmod 600 /var/lib/wvdial/.config ______________________________________________________________________________ Please verify these md5 checksums of the updates before installing: (For SuSE 6.0, please use the 6.1 updates) eb0c8cf0bb3c2dfa56fe753679a3117d ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/n1/wvdial-1.20-38.i386.rpm 74069a12c78f760dc48a27d7bc6222a2 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/n1/wvdial-1.40-21.i386.rpm ec84718a84f65b28ffdde46cef6825c0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/n1/wvdial-1.40-19.i386.rpm ______________________________________________________________________________ You can find updates on our ftp-Server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update for Intel processors ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update for Alpha processors or try the following web pages for a list of mirrors: http://www.suse.de/ftp.html http://www.suse.com/ftp_new.html Our webpage for patches: http://www.suse.de/patches/index.html Our webpage for security announcements: http://www.suse.de/security If you want to report vulnerabilities, please contact security(a)suse.de ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE has got two free security mailing list services to which any interested party may subscribe: use-security(a)suse.com - moderated and for general/linux/SuSE security discussions.

Hello, I'm desperately looking for the FreeS/WAN.RPM, but are not able to locate the file, neither on the FreeS/WAN site, nor SuSE's update ftp. We're having SuSE 6.2 as OS and want to test VPN with FreeS/WAN, which should be able when using the RPM as you mention in your security announce. Can you help me out , or send me the (correct) URL ?? Thank you very much !

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Announcement of new security tools from SuSE ______________________________________________________________________________ Please note, that that we provide this information on an "as-is" basis only. There is no warranty whatsoever and no liability for any direct, indirect or incidental damage arising from this information or the installation of the update package. _____________________________________________________________________________ Tools developed by SuSE (all open source) and included in SuSE 6.3 : SuSE FTP Proxy - The first program of the SuSE Proxy Suite. A secure FTP proxy with support for SSL, LDAP, command restriction, active and passive FTP support, and much more. RPM: fwproxy.rpm, fwproxys.rpm (SSL - not in the US version) SuSE Firewall - The new firewall script from SuSE, rewritten from scratch. Autodetection of interface information, masquerading, autoprotection of services, protection from internal networks, fail-close design and easy to configure. RPM: firewals.rpm Harden SuSE - A special script for hardening a SuSE Linux 5.3 - 6.3. By answering 9 questions, the system is reconfigured very tightly. e.g. disabling insecure network services, removing suid/sgid/world-writable permissions which are not critical. RPM: hardsuse.rpm SuSE Secumod - This loadable kernel module enhances the security of the system by adding a symlink/hardlink/pipe protection, procfs protection, trusted path execution and capabilities. RPM: secumod.rpm SuSE Secchk - These are cron scripts which run daily, weekly and monthly to check the security of the system and compare them to the last run. RPM: seccheck.rpm Yast-1 - New administration menu for setting password aging, authentication fail delay and logging of logins + failures. RPM: yast.rpm SuSE auditdisk - Please note that this tool is in beta phase! This tool generates a bootdisk with checksum data and all binaries etc. needed to automaticaly verify file checksums upon booting. This way it can't be subverted by lkm's like a standard e.g. tripwire installation. WWW: http://www.suse.de/~marc - not included on SuSE 6.3 yet Watch out for updates of these tools on our WWW or FTP update sites. Although these are tools developed by SuSE, they (should) work on any Linux distributions with little problems. <p>New tools included in the SuSE Linux distribution (not created by SuSE): FreeS/WAN - IPSEC implementation to build secure VPN tunnels via public networks. RPM: freeswan.rpm (not in the US version) GNU Privacy Guard - A free pgp-like tool for secure (not limited to email) communication. Frontends are also included. RPM: gpg (not in the US version) Nessus - A very good network security scanner! RPM: nessus plus tmpwatch, arpwatch, plug, sslwrap, the newest nmap and more. "Old" packages include: john, saint, cipe, pgp, scanlogd, ssh, tripwire, etc. ______________________________________________________________________________ General information on SuSE Linux: http://www.suse.com You can find updates on our ftp-Server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update for Intel processors ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update for Alpha processors or try the following web pages for a list of mirrors: http://www.suse.com/ftp_new.html Our webpage for patches: http://www.suse.de/en/support/download/updates/ Our webpage for security announcements: http://www.suse.de/security If you want to report vulnerabilities, please contact security(a)suse.de ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE has got two free security mailing list services to which any interested party may subscribe: use-security(a)suse.com - moderated and for general/linux/SuSE security discussions.
