Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.59939
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:240 (libnfsidmap)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to libnfsidmap
announced via advisory MDKSA-2007:240.

The NFSv4 ID mapper prior to 0.17 did not properly handle return values
from the getpwnam_r() function when performing a username lookup, which
could cause it to report a file as being owned by 'root' instead of
'nobody' if the file exists on the server but not the client.

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Affected: 2007.0, Corporate 4.0

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