Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.52105 |
Category: | Mandrake Local Security Checks |
Title: | Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:077 (cdrecord) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to cdrecord announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:077. Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena discovered that cdrecord created temporary files in an insecure manner if DEBUG was enabled in /etc/cdrecord/rscsi. If the default value was used (which stored the debug output file in /tmp), a symbolic link attack could be used to create or overwrite arbitrary files with the privileges of the user invoking cdrecord. Please note that by default this configuration file does not exist in Mandriva Linux so unless you create it and enable DEBUG, this does not affect you. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0, Corporate Server 2.1 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2005:077 http://bugs.debian.org/291376 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 2.1 |
