MDKSA-2003:053: mgetty

Vulnerability Assessment Summary Check for the version of the mgetty package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2003:053 (mgetty). Two vulnerabilities were discovered in mgetty versions prior to 1.1.29. An internal buffer could be overflowed if the caller name reported by the modem, via Caller ID information, was too long. As well, the faxspool script that comes with mgetty used a simple permissions scheme to permit or deny fax transmission rights. Because the spooling directory used for outgoing faxes was world-writeable, this scheme was easily circumvented.
