Title: | RedHat Update for yum-updatesd RHSA-2014:1004-01 |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'yum-updatesd'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'yum-updatesd' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The yum-updatesd package provides a daemon which checks for available updates and can notify you when they are available via email, syslog, or dbus. It was discovered that yum-updatesd did not properly perform RPM package signature checks. When yum-updatesd was configured to automatically install updates, a remote attacker could use this flaw to install a malicious update on the target system using an unsigned RPM or an RPM signed with an untrusted key. (CVE-2014-0022) All yum-updatesd users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing this update, the yum-updatesd service will be restarted automatically. Affected Software/OS: yum-updatesd on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
