From security@linux-mandrake.com Wed Apr 28 18:50:05 2004 From: Mandrake Linux Security Team To: full-disclosure@lists.netsys.com Date: 28 Apr 2004 22:06:43 -0000 Subject: [Full-Disclosure] MDKSA-2004:038 - Updated sysklogd packages fix vulnerability -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory _______________________________________________________________________ Package name: sysklogd Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:038 Date: April 28th, 2004 Affected versions: 10.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1, Multi Network Firewall 8.2 ______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Steve Grubb discovered a bug in sysklogd where it allocates an insufficient amount of memory which causes sysklogd to write to unallocated memory. This could allow for a malicious user to crash sysklogd. The updated packages provide a patched sysklogd using patches from Openwall to correct the problem and also corrects the use of an unitialized variable (a previous use of "count"). ______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandrakelinux 10.0: 56be6debadc1678fd1a15287ca5ae2ad 10.0/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.100mdk.i586.rpm 83af4672bd9150405f90aae4b6619cd9 10.0/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.100mdk.src.rpm Corporate Server 2.1: b918c5ef6bb8447d239759efba3c7e09 corporate/2.1/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-3.1.C21mdk.i586.rpm 7b8dbcdd9f920af85bb16b6e6025d7f3 corporate/2.1/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-3.1.C21mdk.src.rpm Corporate Server 2.1/x86_64: 2e2ef8b575701c38331dadb28487fda9 x86_64/corporate/2.1/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-3.1.C21mdk.x86_64.rpm 7b8dbcdd9f920af85bb16b6e6025d7f3 x86_64/corporate/2.1/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-3.1.C21mdk.src.rpm Mandrakelinux 9.1: d1739b0bbea69a1353d66f028f202dde 9.1/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.91mdk.i586.rpm cdc57232ed5db82bf28d4b048647a71d 9.1/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.91mdk.src.rpm Mandrakelinux 9.1/PPC: 3fd132a90c93f263931159c2f73d3d54 ppc/9.1/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.91mdk.ppc.rpm cdc57232ed5db82bf28d4b048647a71d ppc/9.1/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.91mdk.src.rpm Mandrakelinux 9.2: aa42ba8d2829f8712783dde9510808c4 9.2/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.92mdk.i586.rpm 61aede3038c4888f0b3b290ec254135f 9.2/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.92mdk.src.rpm Mandrakelinux 9.2/AMD64: 1c5c0d6e364c8306361557039ab34b12 amd64/9.2/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.92mdk.amd64.rpm 61aede3038c4888f0b3b290ec254135f amd64/9.2/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-5.1.92mdk.src.rpm Multi Network Firewall 8.2: 47933c75e29030d35644c84ea04bcfc4 mnf8.2/RPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-3.1.M82mdk.i586.rpm 9b20cb9f1a599f25f4a08bde99042543 mnf8.2/SRPMS/sysklogd-1.4.1-3.1.M82mdk.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi.
