Applications using pcre to process regular expressions from untrusted sources could therefore potentially be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary code as the user running the application. 2) Solution or Work-Around There is no known workaround, please install the update packages. 3) Special Instructions and Notes Please close and restart all running programs that link libpcre after the update. 4) Package Location and Checksums The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST Online Update (YOU) tool. YOU detects which updates are required and automatically performs the necessary steps to verify and install them. Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this announcement. Then install the packages using the command rpm -Fhv <file.rpm> to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the downloaded RPM package. x86 Platform: openSUSE 10.3: http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/i586/pcre-7.2-14.2... 638bc8ea3b3049bf8f018cbe2c636c8c http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/i586/pcre-devel-7.... 2aba0cac3367280a938bf7d0e75b811c openSUSE 10.2: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/i586/pcre-6.7-25.i586.rpm aae587979521d9215fcedeba6ffdd5d3 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/i586/pcre-devel-6.7-25.i586.rpm 67e29afb709d1f1d3270cd259afc3302 SUSE LINUX 10.1: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/i586/pcre-6.4-14.12.i586.rpm f23b3c0a085307189770ef6446ddf95e ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/i586/pcre-devel-6.4-14.12.i586.rpm 360c141d251b19d20bc87f02c014ca85 SUSE LINUX 10.0: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/i586/pcre-6.2-2.6.i586.rpm a6d52c75af7b87f5839c93ad765fc471 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/i586/pcre-devel-6.2-2.6.i586.rpm 3127d163cb29fe4023d9ce7de694992f Power PC Platform: openSUSE 10.2: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/ppc/pcre-6.7-25.ppc.rpm 31efc0735941f2ba8e378c5282715a14 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/ppc/pcre-devel-6.7-25.ppc.rpm 10a13246ef2f68b9b59a33e80bb50a7d SUSE LINUX 10.1: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/ppc/pcre-6.4-14.12.ppc.rpm 44ddec7ac85dbf91cb34afb089357d4d ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/ppc/pcre-devel-6.4-14.12.ppc.rpm e8e6d6c2f78904a886114f635bf184a9 SUSE LINUX 10.0: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/ppc/pcre-6.2-2.6.ppc.rpm 61f6f3eda12cfa2daab879ab39169d22 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/ppc/pcre-devel-6.2-2.6.ppc.rpm 0e4859e31522fb242ffab6a07aaf77fa openSUSE 10.3: http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/ppc/pcre-7.2-14.2.... a54e3a3eddaabc9f89d6019bb12f2081 http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/ppc/pcre-devel-7.2... 9043d0181ba37fc0c86fae3429f1cda0 x86-64 Platform: openSUSE 10.2: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/x86_64/pcre-32bit-6.7-25.x86_64.rpm b4a5e803fba79cce1dca2f60fbf5c72c ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/x86_64/pcre-6.7-25.x86_64.rpm cb81d1ee51a9ad918168e986f16e028f ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/x86_64/pcre-devel-6.7-25.x86_64.rpm 322c88af597a52657e403a7268e752d0 SUSE LINUX 10.1: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/x86_64/pcre-32bit-6.4-14.12.x86_64.rpm 527b30661fa36d99d80cbd6e3051d45a ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/x86_64/pcre-6.4-14.12.x86_64.rpm 347cf67ca766245983a736af5529cc0d ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/x86_64/pcre-devel-6.4-14.12.x86_64.rpm c8a3ba1109569e7bc39331c1ada22d43 SUSE LINUX 10.0: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/x86_64/pcre-32bit-6.2-2.6.x86_64.rpm 11bff919ac213631e0b10838de3e2e74 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/x86_64/pcre-6.2-2.6.x86_64.rpm dd475be9f1d852b35907d540d1e1afe9 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/x86_64/pcre-devel-6.2-2.6.x86_64.rpm 8a09951c95692f97ae5772594e5f7f44 openSUSE 10.3: http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/x86_64/pcre-32bit-... 6132117b7d5c9c22564384d8e16447c4 http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/x86_64/pcre-7.2-14... 411c7ab54802ff8bf2abc03cea0d0d39 http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/x86_64/pcre-devel-... 7856ed6adf0fc2d38e95777b8f050ee0 Sources: openSUSE 10.2: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/src/pcre-6.7-25.src.rpm f5fbd77e5a2bb3ab5b4e2079eb66c9f8 SUSE LINUX 10.1: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/src/pcre-6.4-14.12.src.rpm 605123a0c31cb6019d0a71cc8f998bb5 SUSE LINUX 10.0: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/10.0/rpm/src/pcre-6.2-2.6.src.rpm edea2557792769392a29bebef2136ea9 openSUSE 10.3: http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/rpm/src/pcre-7.2-14.2.... 3ad3dbb6ba1fe69dd2b0bf265191e267 Our maintenance customers are notified individually.

The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE security announcements are published with a valid signature. To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file and run the command gpg --verify <file> replacing <file> with the name of the file where you saved the announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like: gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9 gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security@suse.de>" where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed. If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the command gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc - Package authenticity verification: SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. 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) Using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package 2) MD5 checksums as provided in this announcement 1) The internal 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, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it contains a valid signature from build@suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA. This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at the end of this announcement. 2) If you need an alternative means of verification, use the md5sum command to verify the authenticity of the packages. Execute the command md5sum <filename.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 SUSE security announcement. Because the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (by security@suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package if the signature of the announcement is valid. Note that the md5 sums published in the SUSE Security Announcements are valid for the respective packages only. Newer versions of these packages cannot be verified. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: opensuse-security@opensuse.org - General Linux and SUSE security discussion. All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to <opensuse-security+subscribe@opensuse.org>. opensuse-security-announce@opensuse.org - SUSE's announce-only mailing list. Only SUSE's security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to <opensuse-security-announce+subscribe@opensuse.org>. ===================================================================== SUSE's security contact is <security@suse.com> or <security@suse.de>.
