Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Updated diffutils packages available
Advisory ID: RHSA-2001:116-03
Issue date: 2001-10-03
Updated on: 2001-10-17
Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: sdiff temporary file
Cross references:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
Updated diffutils packages are now available, fixing a temporary file
handling vulnerability in the sdiff program.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 5.2 - alpha, i386, sparc
Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386, sparc
Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386
Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, i386, ia64
3. Problem description:
When using sdiff in interactive mode, a temporary file is created.
The new diffutils packages make sure to create that file in a secure
way.
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.

You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig <filename>
If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
rpm --checksig --nogpg <filename>
