-----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.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- _____________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement - syslogd (a1) Package: syslogd-1.3.33 (a1) Date: Thu Nov 18 14:00:29 CET 1999 Affected SuSE versions: 6.2 and 6.3 Vulnerability Type: local denial-of-service attack SuSE default package: yes Other affected systems: all Linux systems using the syslog daemon ______________________________________________________________________________ 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).

SuSE Security Announcement - ypserv
by marc＠suse.de 24 Oct '99

24 Oct '99

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: ypserv prior 1.3.9 Date: Tue Sep 28 08:38:50 CEST 1999 Affected: all linux distributions using the ypserv package ______________________________________________________________________________ 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 "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 package ypserv is the former "yellow pages", now called NIS information service, which is used for e.g. central network user account management. Several vulnerability exists: ypserv prior 1.3.9 allows an administrator in the NIS domain to inject password tables; rpc.yppasswd prior 1.3.6.92 has got a buffer overflow in the md5 hash generation [SuSE linux is unaffected by this, other linux falvors are]; rpc.yppasswdd prior 1.3.9 allows users to change GECO and login shell values of other users. 2. Impact If administrator access to one server in the NIS domain is compromised, access to the whole domain can be achieved. On some linux distributions other than SuSE, The rpc.yppasswdd service may halt unexpectedly. It is theoretically possible to execute arbitary code on these systems too. User information can be changed and restricted accounts opened. 3. Solution Updated the package from our FTP server. ______________________________________________________________________________ Here are the md5 checksums of the upgrade packages, please verify these before installing the new packages: abe34d8d1831550059b3fad160fe41f5 ypserv-1.3.9-0.i386.rpm (6.1) 6937d10896d2b5beb18471491ca57781 ypserv-1.3.9-0.alpha.rpm (AXP) 19472f128099cb1e311f2db247acd39f ypserv-1.3.9-0.i386.rpm (6.2) For SuSE 6.0 users: please use the 6.1 version. ______________________________________________________________________________ You will find the update on our ftp-Server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/n1/ypserv-1.3.9-0.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.1/n1/ypserv-1.3.9-0.alpha.rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/n1/ypserv-1.3.9-0.i386.rpm Webpage for patches: http://www.suse.de/patches/index.html or try the following web pages for a list of mirrors: http://www.suse.de/ftp.html http://www.suse.com/ftp_new.html ______________________________________________________________________________ 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.
