[S.u.S.E. Linux] My S.u.S.E. linux hackered. POPPER 2.2.
This morning a person different than me gain root access to my linux system I administrate at university. Fortunately was a friend of mine. My linux system is 5.1 suse, but also the 5.2 version is vulnerable. The problem is popper, listening on port 110. I suggest to secure-wrap it or apply the patch. For additional info you can see www.rootshell.com or the bugtraq archive mailing list. The exploit is on-air from 29-06. Please patch asap. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
