Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50863
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2001:047-1 (pine)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to pine
announced via advisory MDKSA-2001:047-1.

Versions of the Pine email client prior to 4.33 have various temporary
file creation problems, as does the pico editor. These issues allow
any user with local system access to cause any files owned by any
other user, including root, to potentially be overwritten if the
conditions were right.

Update:

The packages for 7.1 and Corporate Server did not properly update the
menu entries. These updated packages update the menu entries.

Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, Corporate Server 1.0.1

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