Category:	Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2009-195-01)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'dhcp' package(s) announced via the SSA:2009-195-01 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'dhcp' package(s) announced via the SSA:2009-195-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New dhcp packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 11.0, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, and -current to fix a security issue with dhclient. Note that dhclient is not the default DHCP client in Slackware's networking scripts, dhcpcd is. However, if you use dhclient on a network where someone could deploy a hostile DHCP server, you should upgrade to the new package. More details about this issue may be found in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database: [link moved to references] Here are the details from the Slackware 12.2 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/dhcp-3.1.2p1-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz: Upgraded. A stack overflow vulnerability was fixed in dhclient that could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root on the system, or simply terminate the client, by providing an over-long subnet-mask option.
