Category: | Mandrake Local Security Checks |
Title: | Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:138 (acpid) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to acpid announced via advisory MDVSA-2012:138. A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in acpid: Helmut Grohne and Michael Biebl discovered that ACPI scripts were executed with a permissive file mode creation mask (umask). A local attacker could read files and modify directories created by ACPI scripts that did not set a strict umask (CVE-2011-4578). The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0 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=MDVSA-2012:138 Risk factor : High |
