Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: New squid packages available to fix FTP-based DoS Advisory ID: RHSA-2001:113-03 Issue date: 2001-09-25 Updated on: 2001-10-16 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: squid FTP DoS Cross references: Obsoletes: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: New squid packages are available that fix a potential DoS in Squid's FTP handling code. It is recommened that squid users update to the fixed packages. The packages for Red Hat Linux 6.2 also fix the problem described in RHSA-2001:097-04; it was later discovered that Red Hat Linux 6.2 is vulnerable to the same problem in accelerator-only mode. 2001-10-22: Packages are now available for Red Hat Linux 7.2. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386, sparc Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386 Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386 3. Problem description: Certain FTP requests could cause the Squid daemon to abort, making it unavailable for a period of seconds. If enough of these requests are sent in a short period of time, the Squid daemon will not be restarted. Thanks go to Vladimir Ivaschenko for bringing this to our attention, and to Henrik Nordstrom and the Squid team for providing a fix. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5.
