Immunix OS Security Advisory
Packages updated: minicom
Affected products: Immunix OS 6.2, 7.0-beta, and 7.0
Bugs Fixed: immunix/1600
Date: May 17, 2001
Advisory ID: IMNX-2001-70-020-01
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@wirex.com>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
zenith parsec found numerous format string bugs in the version
of minicom that is included in all versions of Immunix OS. See
http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/181922 for more information on
the exploit. FormatGuard does not stop these bugs because minicom
writes directly to the log files using vsprintf calls.
The following packages fix most of the format string errors and
disable the setuid bit on minicom.
