Please update the packages in your installation as soon as possible or disable the service. _____________________________________________________________________________ 1. Problem Summary From MandrakeSoft's excellent summary: OpenLDAP follows symbolic links when creating files. The default location for these files is /usr/tmp, which is a symlink to /tmp, which in turn is a world-writable directory. 2. Impact Local users can destroy the contents of any file on any mounted filesystem. 3. Solution Update the packages from our ftp server by running the following command for EACH new openldap package (4 total): rpm -Fvh ftp_path_to_filename Where ftp_path_to_filename are the following: ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/openldap-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/openldap-devel-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/openldap-libs-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/openldap-server-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm The source rpm can be downloaded here: ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/SRPMS/openldap-1.2.10-1.src.rpm **Note: You must rebuild and install the rpms if you choose to download and install the srpm. Simply installing the srpm alone WILL NOT CLOSE THE SECURITY HOLE. Please verify the md5 checksum of the updates before you install: MD5 sum Package Name - ------------------------------------------------------------ 25c417d01c89ecb5a5e8690d2dee1d92 openldap-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm 0053d6ba1f2bb47dfe49673ab3a6ca5a openldap-devel-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm 106ec91d5acae8e60c227e64867aa335 openldap-libs-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm e04f082c50c08d51c6ec0f75361e3923 openldap-servers-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm fc7f1252ea654cb5a70b6cc7afea0a5d openldap-1.2.10-1.src.rpm ______________________________________________________________________________ These packages are GPG signed by Turbolinux for security. Our key is available here: http://www.turbolinux.com/security/tlgpgkey.asc To verify a package, use the following command: rpm --checksig name_of_rpm To examine only the md5sum, use the following command: rpm --checksig --nogpg name_of_rpm **Note: Checking GPG keys requires RPM 3.0 or higher. ______________________________________________________________________________ You can find more updates on our ftp server: ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/ for TL6.0 Workstation and Server security updates ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/4.0/security/ for TL4.0 Workstation and Server security updates Our webpage for security announcements: http://www.turbolinux.com/security If you want to report vulnerabilities, please contact: rt-security@turbolinux.com ______________________________________________________________________________ Subscribe to the TurboLinux Security Mailing lists: TL-security - A moderated list for discussing security issues in TurboLinux products.
