Category:	Red Hat Local Security Checks
Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2008:0061
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2008:0061. The setroubleshoot packages provide tools to help diagnose SELinux problems. When AVC messages occur, an alert is generated that gives information about the problem, and how to create a resolution. A flaw was found in the way sealert wrote diagnostic messages to a temporary file. A local unprivileged user could perform a symbolic link attack, and cause arbitrary files, writable by other users, to be overwritten when a victim runs sealert. (CVE-2007-5495) A flaw was found in the way sealert displayed records from the setroubleshoot database as unescaped HTML. An local unprivileged attacker could cause AVC denial events with carefully crafted process or file names, injecting arbitrary HTML tags into the logs, which could be used as a scripting attack, or to confuse the user running sealert. (CVE-2007-5496) Users of setroubleshoot are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008-0061.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#moderate Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 4.4
