This SUSE Security Announcement targets the Live CD that comes with the SUSE LINUX 9.1 Personal edition. The Live CD can boot and run on any PC that has a CD-ROM drive, offering a convenient opportunity for users who want to try out SUSE Linux without any modification to the system that is installed on the computer. Similar CD-ROM iso images have been available for download from our ftp server with each release of the SUSE LINUX home user product for years. Upon boot, the Live CD will automatically configure a network card if one has been detected. It requires user interaction for dialup network access. A configuration error on the Live CD allows for a passwordless, remote root login to the system via ssh, if the computer has booted from the Live CD and if it is connected to a network. Since the CD-ROM is a read-only medium by definition, there is no solution for this error that would be persistent over a reboot from the Live CD. Manually killing all running instances of the secure shell daemon ("killall sshd" as root) after each boot cures the problem, while still exposing the vulnerability in the time window between startup and the killing of the sshd process. It is a policy for a fresh install of SUSE LINUX products to enable the user to log on to the system using secure shell (ssh). During the installation of the system, the user is prompted for a root password. The Live CD does not install any system on a medium and therefore does not ask for a root password. By consequence, passwordless logins should be denied on the system, regardless of whether the account in question is the super user account or not. The Live CD 9.1 suffers from this misconfiguration. Our permanent fix for the vulnerability is to download the iso image of the fixed Live CD 9.1 from the URL as listed below and to burn it on a CD-R using a CD-burner and the software that comes with the SUSE LINUX 9.1 Personal or Professional (cdrecord, k3b). The new image still runs a secure shell daemon for remote login, but it does not allow remote logins on a zero-length password account, and it denies remote root login attempts, independently from the password. We thank Patrick Kranefeld and Fabian Franz who have reported the configuration neglectfulness on the SUSE LINUX 9.1 Live CD to SUSE Security. Image authenticity verification: The file LiveCD-9.1-01.iso has a length of 706349056 bytes. If you run the command "md5sum LiveCD-9.1-01.iso" after you have downloaded the file, the md5sum command should print the following md5sum: 9f4ed1bc6b3ee582bf593fde75d5db43 This md5 sum is also contained in the file MD5SUMS in the same directory as the LiveCD-9.1-01.iso file. Its signature (by security@suse.de) is contained in the file MD5SUMS.sig. The download location: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/live-cd-9.1/LiveCD-9.1-01.iso 9f4ed1bc6b3ee582bf593fde75d5db43 A note: Please use a mirror for downloading the SUSE LINUX 9.1 Live CD. Mirrors close to you can be found at http://www.suse.com/us/private/download/ftp/int_mirrors.html ______________________________________________________________________________ 2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds: - canna New canna packages are available on our ftp servers, fixing tmp race conditions. - xchat A buffer overflow in the SOCKS5 code of the XChat program has been fixed. New packages are available on our ftp servers. - tcpdump The tcpdump program contained a remote DoS condition in its ISAKMP packet handling (CAN-2004-0183 and CAN-2004-0184). Fixed packages are available on our ftp servers. - lha A buffer overflow in the header parsing routines of lha has been fixed. Additionally lha did not properly handle pathnames within archives (CAN-2004-0234 and CAN-2004-0235). Fixed 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@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 uninstalled 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@suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the toplevel 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@suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion.
