Test Kennung:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51420
Kategorie:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Titel:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:643
Zusammenfassung:NOSUMMARY
Beschreibung:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2003:643.

slocate[1] is a program which catalogues existing files and allows
for a quick lookup later.

It has been reported[2] that slocate contains a buffer overflow
vulnerability which could be used by a local attacker to obtain the
privileges of the slocate user.

With these privileges, the attacker could read and alter the slocate
database, insert false data or find out paths to files which he/she
would otherwise not know due to filesystem restrictions.

The author released version 2.7 which is not vulnerable to this
issue.


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
