                        SuSE Security Announcement

        Package:                bind8
        Announcement-ID:        SuSE-SA:2001:03
        Date:                   Tuesday, January 30th, 2000 23:40 MEST
        Affected SuSE versions: 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, 7.1
        Vulnerability Type:     remote root compromise
        Severity (1-10):        9
        SuSE default package:   no
        Other affected systems: all systems using bind, versions before
                                8.2.3-REL

    Content of this advisory:
        1) security vulnerability resolved: bind8
           problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
        2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
        3) standard appendix (further information)

______________________________________________________________________________

1)  problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade
information

    bind-8.x in all versions of the SuSE distributions contain a bug
    in the transaction signature handling code that can allow to
    remotely over- flow a buffer and thereby execute arbitrary code
    as the user running the nameserver (this is user named by default
    on SuSE systems).  In addition to this bug, another problem
    allows for a remote attacker to collect information about the
    running bind process (this has been found by Claudio Musmarra
    <a9605121@unet.univie.ac.at>).  For more information on these
    bugs, please visit the CERT webpage at
    http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2001-02.html and the bind bugs
    webpage at http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind-security.html .

    The problem is existent in the upcoming SuSE distribution 7.1 that
    will be available by February 10th in the CD/DVD version.

    There exists no reasonable method to circumvent the problems
    other than to update the package as described below.


    Please choose the update package for your distribution from the
    URLs listed below and download the necessary rpm files. Then,
    install the package using the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm´. rpm
    packages have an internal md5 checksum that protects against file
    corruption. You can verify this checksum using the command
    (independently from the md5 signatures below)
        `rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
    The md5 sums under each package are to prove the package authenticity,
    independently from the md5 checksums in the rpm package format.

    SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
    ==============================
    If you run a bind8 nameserver on your system, please update the package
    immediately. In order for the updated package to become active, the
    nameserver process "named" needs to be restarted. Do this using the
    command
        `rcnamed restart´
    as root after performing the rpm command as shown above. Afterwards,
    check for the running daemon using the ps command as `ps aux´. The
    named process should show a new starting time. Repeat the
    `rcnamed restart´ command if the nameserver shut down too slowly to
    release the socket for the new server.

______________________________________________________________________________

2)  Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:

    SuSE distributions contain the bind nameserver in Version 4 as
    well.  bind-4.x in the currently used version has
    security-related bugs, some of which are similar to the ones in
    the 8.x versions. We will provide update packages as well as an
    announcement for the bind
    (not bind8) package shortly, along with an own announcement.
______________________________________________________________________________
