Category:	Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:025 (net-snmp)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to net-snmp announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:025. The fixproc application in Net-SNMP creates temporary files with predictable file names which could allow a malicious local attacker to change the contents of the temporary file by exploiting a race condition, which could possibly lead to the execution of arbitrary code. As well, a local attacker could create symbolic links in the /tmp directory that point to a valid file that would then be overwritten when fixproc is executed (CVE-2005-1740). A remote Denial of Service vulnerability was also discovered in the SNMP library that could be exploited by a malicious SNMP server to crash the agent, if the agent uses TCP sockets for communication (CVE-2005-2177). The updated packages have been patched to correct these problems. Affected: 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0, Multi Network Firewall 2.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2006:025 Risk factor : Critical CVSS Score: 10.0
