Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.54393
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:123 (shorewall)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to shorewall
announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:123.

A vulnerability was discovered in all versions of shorewall where a
client accepted by MAC address filtering is able to bypass any other
rule. If MACLIST_TTL is set to a value greater than 0 or
MACLIST_DISPOSITION is set to ACCEPT in shorewall.conf, and a client
is positively identified through its MAC address, it bypasses all other
policies and rules in place, gaining access to all open services on the
firewall.

Shorewall 2.0.17 is provided which fixes this issue.

Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0,
Multi Network Firewall 2.0


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