Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51477
Category:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Title:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:774
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2003:774.

Bugzilla[1] is a bug tracking system used by many software projects.

Several vulnerabilities have been announced[2] and are being fixed in
this update.

1. SQL injection in collectstats.pl [3]
An user with 'editproducts' privileges (usually an administrator) can
select arbitrary SQL commands to be run by the nightly statistics
cron job (collectstats.pl) by giving a product a carefully crafted
name.

2. SQL injection in editkeywords [4]
An user with 'editkeywords' privileges (usually an administrator) can
inject arbitrary SQL commands via the URL used to edit an existing
keyword.

3. Privilege mishandling [5]
When deleting products and the 'usebuggroups' parameter is on, the
privilege which allows someone to add people to the group which is
being deleted does not get removed, allowing users with that
privilege to get that privilege for the next group that is created
which reuses that group ID. This only allows someone who had been
granted privileges in the past to retain them.

4. Information leak [6]
If the email address of someone who has voted on a restricted ticket
is known, the script_summary( of that ticket can be accessed by users which
would usually have no such privileges.


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
