From security@linux-mandrake.com Sun Apr 21 04:04:22 2002 From: Mandrake Linux Security Team To: bugtraq@securityfocus.com Date: 18 Apr 2002 16:47:03 -0000 Subject: MDKSA-2002:024-1 - rsync update -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory ________________________________________________________________________ Package name: rsync Advisory ID: MDKSA-2002:024-1 Original Advisory Date: March 13th, 2002 Date: April 17th, 2002 Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 8.1, Corporate Server 1.0.1, Single Network Firewall 7.2 ________________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Ethan Benson discovered a bug in rsync where the supplementary groups that the rsync daemon runs as (such as root) would not be removed from the server process after changing to the specified unprivileged uid and gid. This seems only serious if rsync is called using "rsync --daemon" from the command line where it will inherit the group of the user starting the server (usually root). Note that, by default, Mandrake Linux uses xinetd to handle connections to the rsync daemon. This was fixed upstream in version 2.5.3, as well as the previously noted zlib fixes (see MDKSA-2002:023). The authors released 2.5.4 with some additional zlib fixes, and all users are encouraged to upgrade to this new version of rsync. Update: Mandrake Linux 8.1/ia64 packages are now available. ________________________________________________________________________ References: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=132272 ________________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Linux-Mandrake 7.1: fdfd74524914606306ab5717b696e030 7.1/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.2mdk.i586.rpm 34a71b565a7413ecb4efe48acb4df65f 7.1/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.2mdk.src.rpm Linux-Mandrake 7.2: 7eda7d7a7df5bf088a64990bf5c4d70d 7.2/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.i586.rpm f425baa9b832265d6a199bd4409a28db 7.2/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.src.rpm Mandrake Linux 8.0: 914f020aa62c9ce6fdd61dfce245fc1c 8.0/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.i586.rpm f425baa9b832265d6a199bd4409a28db 8.0/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.src.rpm Mandrake Linux 8.0/ppc: c9c5275126721f7aa38f6a4e09742ce9 ppc/8.0/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.ppc.rpm f425baa9b832265d6a199bd4409a28db ppc/8.0/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.src.rpm Mandrake Linux 8.1: e3733dc91021b997e656fafe86915fe9 8.1/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.i586.rpm f425baa9b832265d6a199bd4409a28db 8.1/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.src.rpm Mandrake Linux 8.1/ia64: ce51599f5e62921a090592a293f68010 ia64/8.1/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.ia64.rpm f425baa9b832265d6a199bd4409a28db ia64/8.1/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.src.rpm Corporate Server 1.0.1: fdfd74524914606306ab5717b696e030 1.0.1/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.2mdk.i586.rpm 34a71b565a7413ecb4efe48acb4df65f 1.0.1/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.2mdk.src.rpm Single Network Firewall 7.2: 7eda7d7a7df5bf088a64990bf5c4d70d snf7.2/RPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.i586.rpm f425baa9b832265d6a199bd4409a28db snf7.2/SRPMS/rsync-2.5.4-1.1mdk.src.rpm ________________________________________________________________________ Bug IDs fixed (see https://qa.mandrakesoft.com for more information): ________________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.
