Título:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2012:1206
Resumen:	NOSUMMARY
Descripción:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2012:1206. Python Paste provides middleware for building and running Python web applications. The python-paste-script package includes paster, a tool for working with and running Python Paste applications. It was discovered that paster did not drop supplementary group privileges when started by the root user. Running paster serve as root to start a Python web application that will run as a non-root user and group resulted in that application running with root group privileges. This could possibly allow a remote attacker to gain access to files that should not be accessible to the application. (CVE-2012-0878) All paster users should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to resolve this issue. All running paster instances configured to drop privileges must be restarted for this update to take effect. 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-2012-1206.html Risk factor : Medium
