Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50603
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:121 (netatalk)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to netatalk
announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:121.

The etc2ps.sh script, part of the netatalk package, creates files in
/tmp with predicatable names which could allow a local attacker to use
symbolic links to point to a valid file on the filesystem which could
lead to the overwriting of arbitrary files if etc2ps.sh is executed
by someone with enough privilege.

The updated packages are patched to prevent this problem.

Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 9.2, 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.
