Test Kennung:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51500
Kategorie:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Titel:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2002:463
Zusammenfassung:NOSUMMARY
Beschreibung:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2002:463.

UUCP is a Unix to Unix transfer mechanism. It is used primarily
for remote sites to download and upload email and news files to local
machines.

zen-parse found[1] a vulnerability in the command-line argument
handling of uucp which could be exploited by a local user to obtain
uucp uid/gid.

This vulnerability was supposed to be fixed in the CLSA-2001:425
announcement[2], but zen-parse found[3] the used patch was not
totally effective. Security precautions were not being enforced for
all command line options variants, such as --confi for --config
or -c which are synonymous due to the way getopt() works.

The upstream uucp author, Ian Lance Taylor, provided a patch to solve
this vulnerability.


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