Test Kennung:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50824
Kategorie:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Titel:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2002:047 (util-linux)
Zusammenfassung:NOSUMMARY
Beschreibung:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to util-linux
announced via advisory MDKSA-2002:047.

Michal Zalewski found a vulnerability in the util-linux package with
the chfn utility. This utility allows users to modify some information
in the /etc/passwd file, and is installed setuid root. Using a
carefully crafted attack sequence, an attacker can exploit a complex
file locking and modification race that would allow them to make
changes to the /etc/passwd file. To successfully exploit this
vulnerability and obtain privilege escalation, there is a need for some
administrator interaction, and the password file must over over 4kb in
size
the attacker's entry cannot be in the last 4kb of the file.

Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, Corporate Server 1.0.1,
Single Network Firewall 7.2


Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
