Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2007:0235
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2007:0235. The util-linux package contains a collection of basic system utilities. A flaw was found in the way the login process handled logins which did not require authentication. Certain processes which conduct their own authentication could allow a remote user to bypass intended access policies which would normally be enforced by the login process. (CVE-2006-7108) This update also fixes the following bugs: * The partx, addpart and delpart commands were not documented. * The umount -l command did not work on hung NFS mounts with cached data. * The mount command did not mount NFS V3 share where sec=none was specified. * The mount command did not read filesystem LABEL from unpartitioned disks. * The mount command did not recognize labels on VFAT filesystems. * The fdisk command did not support 4096 sector size for the -b option. * The mount man page did not list option mand or information about /etc/mtab limitations. All users of util-linux should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0235.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#low Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 4.1
