Debian Security Advisory DSA-054-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Wichert Akkerman
May 7, 2001
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : cron
Problem type : local root exploit
Debian-specific: no
A recent (fall 2000) security fix to cron introduced an error in
giving up privileges before invoking the editor. A malicious user
could easily gain root access.
This has been fixed in version 3.0pl1-57.3 (or 3.0pl1-67 for
unstable). No exploits are known to exist, but we recommend that you
upgrade your cron packages immediately.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato
- ---------------------------------
Potato was released for alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc.
