| EnGarde Secure Linux Security Advisory March 24, 2003 |
| http://www.engardelinux.org/ ESA-20030324-012 |
| |
| Package: MySQL, MySQL-client, MySQL-shared |
| Summary: root exploit. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
EnGarde Secure Linux is a secure distribution of Linux that
features improved access control, host and network intrusion
detection, Web based secure remote management, e-commerce, and
integrated open source security tools.
OVERVIEW
- --------
Versions of MySQL prior to 3.23.56 contained a vulnerability which could
allow MySQL users to gain root privileges by using "SELECT * INFO
OUTFILE" to overwrite a configuration file, causing MySQL to run as root
upon its next restart.
This update fixes this vulnerability and also upgrades MySQL to
version 3.23.56.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2003-0150 to this issue.
All users are recommended to upgrade as soon as soon as possible.
SOLUTION
- --------
Users of the EnGarde Professional edition can use the Guardian Digital
Secure Network to update their systems automatically.
EnGarde Community users should upgrade to the most recent version
as outlined in this advisory. Updates may be obtained from:
ftp://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
http://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
Before upgrading the package, the machine must either:
a) be booted into a "standard" kernel; or
b) have LIDS disabled.
To disable LIDS, execute the command:
# /sbin/lidsadm -S -- -LIDS_GLOBAL
To install the updated package, execute the command:
# rpm -Uvh files
You must now update the LIDS configuration by executing the command:
# /usr/sbin/config_lids.pl
To re-enable LIDS (if it was disabled), execute the command:
# /sbin/lidsadm -S -- +LIDS_GLOBAL
To verify the signatures of the updated packages, execute the
command:
# rpm -Kv files
