Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2020-0356)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'hylafax+' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0356 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'hylafax+' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0356 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: In HylaFAX+ through 7.0.2, the faxsetup utility calls chown on files in user-owned directories. By winning a race, a local attacker could use this to escalate his privileges to root (CVE-2020-15396). HylaFAX+ through 7.0.2 has scripts that execute binaries from directories writable by unprivileged users (e.g., locations under /var/spool/hylafax that are writable by the uucp account). This allows these users to execute code in the context of the user calling these binaries (often root) (CVE-2020-15397). The hylafax+ package has been updated to version 7.0.3, fixing thesee issues and several other bugs. Affected Software/OS: 'hylafax+' package(s) on Mageia 7. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.2 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
