Fedora Core 3 2005-1054: lm_sensors |
||
Check for the version of the lm_sensors package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory FEDORA-2005-1054 (lm_sensors). The lm_sensors package includes a collection of modules for general SMBus access and hardware monitoring. NOTE: this requires special support which is not in standard 2.2-vintage kernels. Update Information: The lm_sensors package includes a collection of modules for general SMBus access and hardware monitoring. NOTE: this package requires special support which is not in standard 2.2-vintage kernels. A bug was found in the pwmconfig tool which uses temporary files in an insecure manner. The pwconfig tool writes a configuration file which may be world readable for a short period of time. This file contains various information about the setup of lm_sensors on that machine. It could be modified within the short window to contain configuration data that would either render lm_sensors unusable or in the worst case even hang the machine resulting in a DoS. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CVE-2005-2672 to this issue. Users of lm_sensors are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a patch which resolves this issue.
