Hello list ! I have got a SUSE 8.0 box with postfix (Version 20010228pl08, release 22) installed an connected to inet. The latest patches are installed. I have checked the system with ps -aux an got the following 2 processes: root 30885 0.0 0.1 4284 1376 ? S 00:00 0:00 /usr/sbin/sendmail -FCronDaemon -odi -oem root root 30886 0.0 0.1 4276 1372 ? S 00:00 0:00 /usr/sbin/postdrop -r Does anybody know something about the origin ? Stefan

Hello Sandro, Yes I run postfix ! And the answer is rpm -qf /usr/sbin/sendmail ! Now I found the paragraph at the postfix configuration file. Another admin changed the configuration without my knowledge. Thats´s the reason why the process was "strange". Thank you for your advice ! Stefan

SUSE Security Announcement: Linux Kernel (SuSE-SA:2004:001)
by thomas＠suse.de 05 Jan '04

05 Jan '04

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SUSE Security Announcement Package: Linux Kernel Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2004:001 Date: Monday, Jan 5th 2004 20:27 MET Affected products: 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 9.0 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7, SuSE Linux Database Server, SuSE eMail Server III, 3.1 SuSE Linux Firewall on CD/Admin host SuSE Linux Office Server SuSE Linux Desktop 1.0 SuSE Linux School Server Vulnerability Type: local system compromise Severity (1-10): 6 SUSE default package: yes Cross References: Content of this advisory: 1) security vulnerability resolved: - incorrect bounds checking problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information 2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds: - mc - mod_gzip - tripwire - cvs - irssi - atftp 3) standard appendix (further information) ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information The do_mremap() function of the Linux Kernel is used to manage (move, resize) Virtual Memory Areas (VMAs). By exploiting an incorrect bounds check in do_mremap() during the remapping of memory it is possible to create a VMA with the size of 0. In normal operation do_mremap() leaves a memory hole of one page and creates an additional VMA of two pages. In case of exploitation no hole is created but the new VMA has a 0 bytes length. The Linux Kernel's memory management is corrupted from this point and can be abused by local users to gain root privileges. There is no temporary workaround for this bug. Please note that on 8.1, the kernel-source package may not be installable through rpm, because of a bug in RPM (update of the kernel source RPM may take 30 minutes or more, or fail entirely). Owing to this problem, the kernel source is not available as a regular YOU update. However, recognizing our obligation to publish the source along with the binary packages, we are making the source available as a compressed tar archive, downloadable from the normal FTP locations SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS: ============================== The following paragraphs will guide you through the installation process in a step-by-step fashion. The character sequence "****" marks the beginning of a new paragraph. In some cases, you decide if the paragraph is needed for you or not. Please read through all of the steps down to the end. All of the commands that need to be executed are required to be run as the superuser (root). Each step relies on the steps before to complete successfully. **** Step 1: Determine the needed kernel type Please use the following command to find the kernel type that is installed on your system: rpm -qf /boot/vmlinuz The following options are possible (disregarding the version and build number following the name, separated by the "-" character): k_deflt # default kernel, good for most systems. k_i386 # kernel for older processors and chipsets k_athlon # kernel made specifically for AMD Athlon(tm) family processors k_psmp # kernel for Pentium-I dual processor systems k_smp # kernel for SMP systems (Pentium-II and above) k_smp4G # kernel for SMP systems which supports a maximum of 4G of RAM **** Step 2: Download the package for your system Please download the kernel RPM package for your distribution with the name starting as indicated by Step 1. The list of all kernel rpm packages is appended below. Note: The kernel-source package does not contain any binary kernel in bootable form. Instead, it contains the sources that the binary kernel rpm packages are made from. It can be used by administrators who have decided to build their own kernel. Since the kernel-source.rpm is an installable (compiled) package that contains sources for the linux kernel, it is not the source RPM for the kernel RPM binary packages. The kernel RPM binary packages for the distributions can be found at these locations below ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/. 8.0/images/ 8.1/rpm/i586 8.2/rpm/i586 9.0/rpm/i586 After downloading the kernel RPM package for your system, you should verify the authenticity of the kernel rpm package using the methods as listed in section 3) of each SUSE Security Announcement. **** Step 3: Installing your kernel rpm package Install the rpm package that you have downloaded in Steps 3 or 4 with the command rpm -Uhv --nodeps --force <K_FILE.RPM> where <K_FILE.RPM> is the name of the rpm package that you downloaded. Warning: After performing this step, your system will likely not be able to boot if the following steps have not been fully applied. If you run SUSE LINUX 8.1 and haven't applied the previous kernel update (SUSE-SA:2003:034), AND use the freeswan package, you also need to update the freeswan rpm as a dependency as offered by YOU (Yast Online Update). The package can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/i586/ **** Step 4: configuring and creating the initrd The initrd is a ramdisk that is being loaded into the memory of your system together with the kernel boot image by the bootloader. The kernel uses the content of this ramdisk to execute commands that must be run before the kernel can mount its actual root filesystem. It is usually used to initialize scsi drivers or NIC drivers for diskless operation. The variable INITRD_MODULES in /etc/sysconfig/kernel determines which kernel modules will be loaded in the initrd before the kernel has mounted its actual root filesystem. The variable should contain your scsi adapter (if any) or filesystem driver modules. With the installation of the new kernel, the initrd has to be re-packed with the update kernel modules. Please run the command mk_initrd as root to create a new init ramdisk (initrd) for your system. On SuSE Linux 8.1 and later, this is done automatically when the RPM is installed. **** Step 5: bootloader If you have a 7.x system, you must now run the command lilo as root to initialize the lilo bootloader for your system. Then proceed to the next step. If you run a SUSE LINUX 8.x or a SLES8 system, there are two options: Depending on your software configuration, you have the lilo bootloader or the grub bootloader installed and initialized on your system. The grub bootloader does not require any further actions to be performed after the new kernel images have been moved in place by the rpm Update command. If you have a lilo bootloader installed and initialized, then the lilo program must be run as root. Use the command grep LOADER_TYPE /etc/sysconfig/bootloader to find out which boot loader is configured. If it is lilo, then you must run the lilo command as root. If grub is listed, then your system does not require any bootloader initialization. Warning: An improperly installed bootloader may render your system unbootable. **** Step 6: reboot If all of the steps above have been successfully applied to your system, then the new kernel including the kernel modules and the initrd should be ready to boot. The system needs to be rebooted for the changes to become active. Please make sure that all steps are complete, then reboot using the command shutdown -r now or init 6 Your system should now shut down and reboot with the new kernel. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web. 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 later.

vulnerabilities in SUSE Distributions and Workarounds: - mc By using a special combination of links in archive-files it is possible to execute arbitrary commands while mc tries to open it in its VFS. The packages will be release as soon. - mod_gzip The apache module mod_gzip is vulnerable to remote code execution while running in debug-mode. We do not ship this module in debug-mode but future versions will include the fix. Additionally the mod_gzip code was audited to fix more possible security related bugs. - tripwire Tripwire is a file integrity checker. The tripwire version on SuSE Linux 8.2 and 9.0 do crash when a requested file does not exists. New packages will be available soon. - cvs The cvs server-side can be tricked to create files in the root filesystem of the server by requesting malformed modules. The permissions on the root filesystem normally prevent this malfunction. New packages will be available soon. - irssi Under special circumstances the the irc-client irssi can be crashed remotely by other irc-clients. New packages are available on our FTP servers. - atftp A buffer overflow vulnerability discovered by Rick Patel has been fixed in the atftpd (trivial file transfer protocol, UDP oriented) daemon, contained in the atftp package. Update packages for the affected SUSE Linux distributions 8.1 and 8.2 have been published on our ftp server today. We explicitly thank Dirk Mueller, KDE developer, for notifying SUSE Security about the pending treatment of this incident. New packages are available on our FTP servers. ______________________________________________________________________________ 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: suse-security(a)suse.com - general/linux/SUSE security discussion.

Re: [suse-security] nmap on SuSE 9.0
by dreadnought 05 Jan '04

Hello, > Yet again that topic is adressed here. in a good way, though: > > i have prepared a rpm package of nmap with the modification suggested in a > post on the nmap developer list. feel free to grab it from > ftp://ftp.eregion.de/pub/ and try it out. Source RPM is there as well, for > the courious. Is it possible to install this RPM on a system running the Suse 9.0 Live-Eval? I gave it a shot with YaST2, thinking it would be a good way to test, and received the following: "nmap.rpm failed rpm output: error:cannot open Packages index using db3 - Read-only file system (30) error:cannot open Packages database om /var/lib/rpm" I'm not very familiar with the Live-Eval, but thought there would be a way to "install" this updated RPM for the current session? Thanks for the RPM! Once I get home on my system running a full installation of SuSE 9.0 I'll give it a try. Mark

new kernel vulnerability
by Sven 'Darkman' Michels 05 Jan '04

05 Jan '04

Hi there, maybe most of you already know about the new kernel vulnerability in the mremap(2) system call. Can we get a timeline from SuSE when new patches for that will be out? RedHat pushed some fixes today (no, i'm not saying redhat is better.. just don't want to wait as long as for the last fixes, like most others i think). More infos about the vulnerability: http://isec.pl/vulnerabilities/isec-0013-mremap.txt Regards, Sven

WG: [suse-security] Connection to a wireless accesspoint
by Christian Lange 05 Jan '04

05 Jan '04

Hi, i`m running the netgear wg311 without any problems under SuSE 8.2 with the drivers from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/madwifi/ The included readme describes the installation very good. Then i´m runnning a little script in the boot.local to set up the card with iwconfig. as example: iwconfig essid "myessid" iwconfig freq 2.475G iwconfig key 12345678901234567890ABCD iwconfig nick "mynickname" Use iwlist ath0 scan to scan the exact settings of the ap.
