SSA-2004-110-01 utempter security update Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment New utempter packages are available for Slackware 9.1 and -current to fix a security issue. (Slackware 9.1 was the first version of Slackware to use the libutempter library, and earlier versions of Slackware are not affected by this issue) The utempter package provides a utility and shared library that permits terminal applications such as xterm and screen to update /var/run/utmp and /var/log/wtmp without requiring root rights. Steve Grubb has identified an issue with utempter-0.5.2 where under certain circumstances a possible hacker could cause it to overwrite files through a symlink. This has been addressed by upgrading the utempter package to use Dmitry V. Levin's new implementation of libutempter that does not have this bug. More details about this issue may be found in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2004-0233 Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
