From security@linux-mandrake.com Sat Jan 19 23:47:01 2002 From: Mandrake Linux Security Team To: bugtraq@securityfocus.com Date: 19 Jan 2002 01:54:14 -0000 Subject: MDKSA-2002:007 - at update -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory ________________________________________________________________________ Package name: at Advisory ID: MDKSA-2002:007 Date: January 18th, 2002 Affected versions: 8.1 ________________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: zen-parse discovered a problem in the at command containing an extra call to free() which can lead to a segfault with a carefully crafted, but incorrect, format. This is caused due to a heap corruption that can be exploited under certain circumstances because the at command is installed setuid root. Thanks to SuSE for an additional security improvement that ads the O_EXCL (exclusive) option to the open(2) system call inside the at code. ________________________________________________________________________ References: ________________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandrake Linux 8.1: 066814fda6dfc8f74721861a90c1d167 8.1/RPMS/at-3.1.8-4.1mdk.i586.rpm 8205596ce7b87d8dca57a6d9285dd1d1 8.1/SRPMS/at-3.1.8-4.1mdk.src.rpm Mandrake Linux 8.1/ia64: bc46bc259124e1de45063503d8be2940 ia64/8.1/RPMS/at-3.1.8-4.1mdk.ia64.rpm 8205596ce7b87d8dca57a6d9285dd1d1 ia64/8.1/SRPMS/at-3.1.8-4.1mdk.src.rpm ________________________________________________________________________ Bug IDs fixed (see https://qa.mandrakesoft.com for more information): ________________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.
