Vulnerability Type: local privilege escalation
Severity (1-10): 5

Other affected systems: No
Content of this advisory:
1) security vulnerability resolved: buffer overflows in ipppd
problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
3) standard appendix (further information)
______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade
information
The i4l package contains several programs for ISDN maintenance and
connectivity on Linux. The ipppd program which is part of the package
contained various buffer overflows and format string bugs. Since ipppd
is installed setuid to root and executable by users of group 'dialout'
this may allow attackers with appropriate group membership to execute
arbitrary commands as root.
The i4l package is installed by default and also vulnerable if you do
not have a ISDN setup. The buffer overflows and format string bugs have
been fixed. We strongly recommend an update of the i4l package.
If you do not consider updating the package it is also possible to
remove the setuid bit from /usr/sbin/ipppd as a temporary workaround.
The SuSE Security Team is aware of a published exploit for ipppd
that gives a local attacker root privileges so you should either update
the package or remove the setuid bit from ipppd.
Please download the update package for your distribution and
verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this
announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm
-Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers
are being notified individually. The packages are being offered
to install from the maintenance web.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- docbook In past some distributors provided updates for their
docbook packages to fix a problem within the docbook
configuration-files which allowed evil input-files to create
arbitrary files within the users scope. However the supplied
configuration-fixes can easily be circumvented by offering
certain style-sheet files along with the evil input-file.
Because of this fact SuSE does not offer updates for the docbook
packages but rather strongly recommends to not process untrusted
files with the docbook utilities.
- openldap2 Andrew McCall reported a problem within the openldap2
package which could lead to a denial of service attack against
the slapd server. This problem has been fixed. New openldap2
packages will soon be available.
______________________________________________________________________________
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 un-installed 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 top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg)
and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de .
