MDKA-2006:045: coreutils |

Check for the version of the coreutils package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKA-2006:045 (coreutils). The coreutils package lacked several features due to a build deficiency. As a result, the su program was not linked against the PAM library, making it impossible for su to make use of advanced authentication features that rely on the PAM library. As well, the cp system utility did not keep extended attributes and ACLs in file copies. This has been corrected in the updated packages.
