Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.67086
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2010:065 (cpio)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to cpio
announced via advisory MDVSA-2010:065.

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in cpio and tar:

Heap-based buffer overflow in the rmt_read__ function in lib/rtapelib.c
in the rmt client functionality in GNU tar before 1.23 and GNU cpio
before 2.11 allows remote rmt servers to cause a denial of service
(memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code by sending more
data than was requested, related to archive filenames that contain a :
(colon) character (CVE-2010-0624).

The Tar package as shipped with Mandriva Linux is not affected
by this vulnerability, but it was patched nonetheless in order to
provide additional security to customers who recompile the package
while having the rsh package installed.

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0
customers.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2008.0, 2009.0, 2009.1, 2010.0, Corporate 4.0,
Enterprise Server 5.0, 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.
