Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:089 (cdrdao)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to cdrdao
announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:089.

The cdrdao package contains two vulnerabilities
the first allows local
users to read arbitrary files via the show-data command and the second
allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on
the ~
/.cdrdao configuration file. This can also lead to elevated
privileges (a root shell) due to cdrdao being installed suid root.

The provided packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
