Title:	Ubuntu 4.10 USN-75-1 (cpio)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to cpio announced via advisory USN-75-1. Recently it was discovered that cpio created world-writeable files when used in -o/--create mode with giving an output file (with -O). This allowed any user to modify the created cpio archives. Now cpio respects the current umask setting of the user. Note: This vulnerability has already been fixed in a very old version of cpio, but the fix was never ported to the current version. Therefore the CAN number was assigned to the year 1999. The following packages are affected: cpio Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 2.5-1.1ubuntu0.1. In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2005-February/000077.html Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 2.1
