Test Kennung:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.53939
Kategorie:Slackware Local Security Checks
Titel:Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2004-110-01)
Zusammenfassung:The remote host is missing an update for the 'utempter' package(s) announced via the SSA:2004-110-01 advisory.
Beschreibung:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'utempter' package(s) announced via the SSA:2004-110-01 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
New utempter packages are available for Slackware 9.1 and -current to
fix a security issue. (Slackware 9.1 was the first version of Slackware
to use the libutempter library, and earlier versions of Slackware are
not affected by this issue)

The utempter package provides a utility and shared library that
allows terminal applications such as xterm and screen to update
/var/run/utmp and /var/log/wtmp without requiring root privileges.
Steve Grubb has identified an issue with utempter-0.5.2 where
under certain circumstances an attacker could cause it to
overwrite files through a symlink. This has been addressed by
upgrading the utempter package to use Dmitry V. Levin's new
implementation of libutempter that does not have this bug.
