Due to missing bounds checks in the lockfile processing function, internal buffers may overflow. Bounds checks have been added to fix that problem. Additionally the SuSE Security Team uncovered other security releated bugs in lpd while analyzing lpd source after receiving the X-Force advisory. These bugs allows users on machines listed in /etc/hosts.lpd or /etc/hosts.equiv to chown any file on the system running lpd to any user. In order to trigger any of the fixed bugs (including the overflow) the attackers machine must be listed in one of these two access-files and the attacker usually needs root on these machines due to the privileged-port requirement. Please download the packages and verify them as described in section 3. After successful authentication you can update your packages with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. As root invoke the command "/etc/rc.d/lpd stop" to shutdown the old lpd daemon and "/etc/rc.d/lpd start" afterwards to start the patched daemon. i386 Intel Platform: SuSE-7.2 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.2/n1/lprold-3.0.48-272.i386.rpm 23b8251411a557563cb314102f405d31 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.2/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-272.src.rpm ff590e05f2a7c85e9d234bd32d12b13a SuSE-7.1 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.1/n1/lprold-3.0.48-275.i386.rpm b6efc424262ec9aaa39ac84f230b3df2 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.1/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-275.src.rpm 5a95de121c7520bf33620dddbfdda611 SuSE-7.0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/n1/lprold-3.0.48-275.i386.rpm 10792a921880048970f40470f1b94330 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-275.src.rpm 094b06515dfd865c6dffedf70de5e6cc SuSE-6.4 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/n1/lprold-3.0.48-275.i386.rpm da1b920d23694a807f91c74301b47ced source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-275.src.rpm c2c45f04a2d44e374689346f488e8c52 SuSE-6.3 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/n1/lprold-3.0.48-275.i386.rpm 8f7c5538e878f197de1e6dacdb6a8479 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-275.src.rpm d13f74f6449ee40b98b2ed0e42e9d2ec Sparc Platform: SuSE-7.1 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/sparc/update/7.1/n1/lprold-3.0.48-216.sparc.rpm 78a947db44bc4a41cb33eee1b931b99e source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/sparc/update/7.1/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-216.src.rpm 2c873632eaa6f01efb45cba3f1308cd3 SuSE-7.0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/sparc/update/7.0/n1/lprold-3.0.48-216.sparc.rpm 45320846ee6143fdfc27a7d578f630bd source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/sparc/update/7.0/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-216.src.rpm 1be6f31b6924f81fb965b0dce053f6cb AXP Alpha Platform: SuSE-7.1 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/7.1/n1/lprold-3.0.48-215.alpha.rpm 94af7565e8920cdce6e1e7c51f562fba source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/7.1/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-215.src.rpm 0757d322145ef6c2179c8e31b1169cd2 SuSE-7.0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/7.0/n1/lprold-3.0.48-215.alpha.rpm 3c6a2b2b21fcc1b94974aca6c5930e98 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/7.0/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-215.src.rpm 0222dec4d0287b9f1f267b86e8e8a4dd SuSE-6.4 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.4/n1/lprold-3.0.48-215.alpha.rpm f4c618b43a95bd94ed679c1c2119a7aa source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.4/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-215.src.rpm 0430ec91e7515d79326ed16f492ea60e SuSE-6.3 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.3/n1/lprold-3.0.48-215.alpha.rpm 68a8b9a26e17ed5183b8385be349c6a9 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/update/6.3/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-215.src.rpm 582d925d8328f79bc566dddcc62f763b Power PC Platform: SuSE-7.1 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/7.1/n1/lprold-3.0.48-200.ppc.rpm 3c16c1975b8f9dae3ccfb67dd5f462db source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/7.1/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-200.src.rpm 37b0d3534e39273e158eba42f75f8e31 SuSE-7.0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/7.0/n1/lprold-3.0.48-200.ppc.rpm d0e5a115d8991e711ef75fc8b06e1d97 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/7.0/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-200.src.rpm e4d589e9225365b103b502a26d0fd73f SuSE-6.4 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/6.4/n1/lprold-3.0.48-200.ppc.rpm f8e7557f995388564f98e9bae4708e4e source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/6.4/zq1/lprold-3.0.48-200.src.rpm 78a647beeaf5a5541cb15aa6435ba65e ______________________________________________________________________________ 2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds: - sftp/openssh: Our last announcement SuSE-SA:2001:032 about WindowMaker claimed that the openssh packages on SuSE distributions do not contain the sftp-server as described by Peter W <peterw@usa.net> on the bugtraq mailing list. This is wrong: The program is indeed included on all recent openssh packages of SuSE Linux distributions, starting with SuSE Linux 6.4 where the openssh package appeared first. We will provide fixes for the distributions 6.4 through 7.2 as soon as possible on our ftp server (ftp.suse.de for 6.4-7.0, ftp.suse.com for 7.1 and newer) and announce these fixes in the section 2) of an upcoming security announcement. Please note that this error has been corrected shortly before the release of the upcoming SuSE Linux 7.3 which will arrive in the stores by the end of this week. We apologize for this error (Roman Drahtmueller, SuSE Security). - squid Malformed requests on the client side can cause the squid proxy server to die, resulting in a denial of service attack that can be launched from the internal network if squid is used at the edge of an internal network to proxy requests to the internet. We are in the process of testing the update packages that are available on the ftp server shortly. SuSE Security will issue a dedicated announcement for this issue shortly. - devfs/kernel SuSE Linux ships the userspace utilities for the use of the devfs filesystem in the linux kernel, but neither the utilities nor the filesystem interface for device files itself have been used in SuSE Linux up to date. The decision to not actively use devfsd in the distribution framework is based on security considerations. For these reasons, SuSE products are not susceptible to the lately found security problems in the devfs implementation. ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information - Package authenticity verification: SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. There are two verification methods that can be used independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or rpm package: 1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum <name-of-the-file.rpm> after you downloaded the file from a SuSE ftp server or its mirrors. Then, compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key security@suse.de), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package. We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the email message containing the announcement to be modified so that the signature does not match after transport through the mailing list software. Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all md5 sums for the files are useless. 2) rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an rpm package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm> to verify the signature of the package, where <file.rpm> is the filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course, package authenticity verification can only target an uninstalled rpm package file. Prerequisites: a) gpg is installed b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the signature verification (usually root). You can import the key that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and running the command (do "su -" to be root): gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the key "build@suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key is placed at the toplevel directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg) and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de . - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: suse-security@suse.com - general/linux/SuSE security discussion.
