-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ______________________________________________________________________________ SUSE Security Summary Report Announcement ID: SUSE-SR:2005:025 Date: Fri, 04 Nov 2005 14:00:00 +0000 Cross-References: CVE-2005-2869, CVE-2005-2917, CVE-2005-2958 CVE-2005-2959, CVE-2005-2971, CVE-2005-2974 CVE-2005-3068, CVE-2005-3120, CVE-2005-3122 CVE-2005-3123, CVE-2005-3184, CVE-2005-3185 CVE-2005-3241, CVE-2005-3242, CVE-2005-3243 CVE-2005-3244, CVE-2005-3245, CVE-2005-3246 CVE-2005-3247, CVE-2005-3248, CVE-2005-3249 CVE-2005-3258, CVE-2005-3300, CVE-2005-3301 CVE-2005-3313, CVE-2005-3318, CVE-2005-3350 CVE-2005-3388, CVE-2005-3389, CVE-2005-3390 CVE-2005-3393, CVE-2005-3409 Content of this advisory: 1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities: - openvpn - lynx - liby2util - wget - kchmviewer - koffice-wordprocessing - ethereal 2) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds: - zope - phpMyAdmin - libgda - squid - php4, php5 - gnump3d - libungif, giflib - sudo - eric 3) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) Solved Security Vulnerabilities To avoid flooding mailing lists with SUSE Security Announcements for minor issues, SUSE Security releases weekly summary reports for the low profile vulnerability fixes. The SUSE Security Summary Reports do not list md5 sums or download URLs like the SUSE Security Announcements that are released for more severe vulnerabilities. Fixed packages for the following incidents are already available on our FTP server and via the YaST Online Update. - openvpn An openvpn update fixes the following security bugs: - a malicious or compromised server could exploit a format string bug in clients to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2005-3393). - a server in TCP mode could be made to crash due to insufficient checks for the error code of the accept() system call (CVE-2005-3409). SUSE Linux 9.3 and 10.0 are affected. - lynx This update fixes a buffer overflow in function HTrjis() that occurs while processing NNTP headers. An attacker can exploit this remotely by persuading the victim user to connect to a NNTP server which includes a malformated article to execute arbitrary code. (CAN-2005-3120) All SUSE LINUX based products and SLES9 are affected. - liby2util The previous liby2util update on SUSE Linux 9.1 was broken. Fixed packages have been released. - wget Updates for SUSE Linux 9.2 that fix CAN-2005-3185 where missing previously. Update packages are now available. - kchmviewer kchmviewer contained a copy of chmlib that was prone to a buffer overflow (CVE-2005-3318). SUSE Linux 10.0 is affected. - koffice-wordprocessing A buffer overflow in the RTF import filter in koffice was fixed (CAN-2005-2971 / CESA-2005-005). It allowed remote attackers to execute code in the koffice process by preparing a special RTF file. All SUSE LINUX products and SLD are affected. - ethereal A version upgrade to ethereal 0.10.13 fixes several security related bugs ranging from crashes to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2005-3241, CVE-2005-3242, CVE-2005-3243, CVE-2005-3244, CVE-2005-3245, CVE-2005-3246, CVE-2005-3247, CVE-2005-3248, CVE-2005-3249, CVE-2005-3184, CVE-2005-3313) All SUSE LINUX based products are affected. ______________________________________________________________________________ 2) Pending Vulnerabilities, Solutions, and Work-Arounds - zope Zope honors file inclusion directives in RestructuredText objects which potentially allowed attackers to execute arbitrary code (Zope Hotfix 2005-10-09). Updates are currently being QA tested. All SUSE LINUX products >= 9.1 and SLES9 are affected. - phpMyAdmin We are preparing updates for the following issues: - multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) bugs (CVE-2005-3301, CAN-2005-2869, PMASA-2005-5). - multiple file inclusion vulnerabilities that allowed an attacker to include arbitrary files (CVE-2005-3300, CVE-2005-3301, PMASA-2005-5). All SUSE LINUX products are affected. - libgda libgda contains two format string bugs in logging routines. Those bugs could potentially indirectly lead to arbitrary code execution via applications that link against libgda and supply data to libgda (CAN-2005-2958). Updates are currently beeing QA tested. All SUSE LINUX products and SLES9 are affected. - squid We are preparing updates for the following issues: - A bug in the NTLM authentication could crash squid (CVE-2005-2917) - Odd replies of FTP servers could crash squid (CVE-2005-3258) Updates are currently being QA tested. All SUSE LINUX based products are affected - php4, php5 Stefan Esser discovered a cross-site scripting bug in the phpinfo() function (CVE-2005-3388), a bug that allows an attacker to enable register_globals (CVE-2005-3389) and a bug that allows an attacker to overwrite the $GLOBALS array (CVE-2005-3390). We are preparing updates for these issues. All SUSE LINUX based products are affected. - gnump3d Steve Kemp discovered a cross-site scripting bug (CVE-2005-3122) and a directory traversal bug (CVE-2005-3123) in gnump3d. We are preparing updates for these issues. All SUSE LINUX products are affected. - libungif, giflib We are preparing updates for the following issues: - specially crafted GIF files could crash applications (CVE-2005-2974). - specially crafted GIF files could overwrite memory which potentially allowed to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2005-3350). Updates are currently being QA tested. All SUSE LINUX based products are affected. - sudo The fix for CVE-2005-2959 further extends the sudo internal environment variable blacklist to prevent interpretation of those variables by the bash shell. In our opinion a blacklist based approach to improve security is doomed to fail. If you use sudo to grant limited super user access to regular users you should rather configure sudo to clean the entire environment by setting the options env_reset and always_set_home. We will therefore not release security updates for the sole purpose of extending the blacklist. - eric Eric project files may contain python code which is run through eval() by eric. The fix for CVE-2005-3068 does not prevent this. A project file is some kind of Makefile, executing code in such a development environment is a natural property. GPG signatures should be used to validate integrity and authenticity of source releases. We are therefore not going release security updates for eric. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information - Announcement authenticity verification: SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web sites. 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 containing 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 " 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 integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. The internal RPM package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig to verify the signature of the package, replacing 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 included at the end of this announcement. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security@suse.com - General Linux and SUSE security discussion.
