-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2013:048 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : ncpfs Date : April 5, 2013 Affected: Business Server 1.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in ncpfs: ncpfs 2.2.6 and earlier attempts to use (1) ncpmount to append to the /etc/mtab file and (2) ncpumount to append to the /etc/mtab.tmp file without first checking whether resource limits would interfere, which allows local users to trigger corruption of the /etc/mtab file via a process with a small RLIMIT_FSIZE value, a related issue to CVE-2011-1089 (CVE-2011-1679). ncpmount in ncpfs 2.2.6 and earlier does not remove the /etc/mtab~ lock file after a failed attempt to add a mount entry, which has unspecified impact and local attack vectors (CVE-2011-1680). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-1679 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-1680 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 1/X86_64: c2a727406433af38bc350b28b943ffd5 mbs1/x86_64/ipxutils-2.2.6-11.1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm 9e6cfac7329f76a0216b19939d9811de mbs1/x86_64/lib64ncpfs2.3-2.2.6-11.1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm 5ad7576e7f77873503f643e14b296cda mbs1/x86_64/lib64ncpfs-devel-2.2.6-11.1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm b6532c99f5c8194fc477fc39c29708ac mbs1/x86_64/ncpfs-2.2.6-11.1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm abc71b5ed182e28ac708e196cb50540a mbs1/SRPMS/ncpfs-2.2.6-11.1.mbs1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
