From security@LINUX-MANDRAKE.COM Wed Mar 21 13:13:14 2001 From: Linux Mandrake Security Team To: BUGTRAQ@SECURITYFOCUS.COM Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2001 17:52:41 -0700 Subject: [BUGTRAQ] MDKSA-2001:032 - licq update [The following text is in the "iso-8859-1" character set] [Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set] [Some characters may be displayed incorrectly] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ Linux-Mandrake Security Update Advisory ________________________________________________________________________ Package name: licq Date: March 20th, 2001 Advisory ID: MDKSA-2001:032 Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, Corporate Server 1.0.1 ________________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Versions of Licq prior to 1.0.3 have a vulnerability involving the way Licq parses received URLs. The received URLs are passed to the web browser without any sanity checking by using the system() function. Because of the lack of checks on the URL, remote attackers can pipe other commands with the sent URLs causing the client to unwillingly execute arbitrary commands. The URL parsing code has been fixed in the most recent 1.0.3 version. Users of Linux-Mandrake 7.1 and Corporate Server 1.0.1 will have to manually remove the licq-data package by using "rpm -e licq-data" prior to upgrading. ________________________________________________________________________ Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of the downloaded package. You can do this with the command: rpm --checksig package.rpm You can get the GPG public key of the Linux-Mandrake Security Team at http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG signature is performed automatically for you.

If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm". You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites listed at: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3. Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory. For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for Linux-Mandrake 7.2, look for it in "updates/7.2/RPMS/". Updated source RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download them. Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to update.
