Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2005-0062
Package names: mod_php4, ncftp, php4, sudo
Summary: Multiple vulnerabilities
Date: 2005-11-04
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
Trustix Secure Linux 3.0
Trustix Operating System - Enterprise Server 2
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
mod_php4
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy
for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also offers
built-in database integration for several commercial and non-commercial
database management systems, so writing a database-enabled web page with
PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a
replacement for CGI scripts. The mod_php module enables the Apache web
server to understand and process the embedded PHP language in web pages.
ncftp
Ncftp is an improved FTP client. Ncftp's improvements include support
for command line editing, command histories, recursive gets, automatic
anonymous logins and more.
php4
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy
for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also offers

PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as
a replacement for CGI scripts. The mod_php module enables the Apache web
server to understand and process the embedded PHP language in web pages.
sudo
Sudo (superuser do) allows a system administrator to give certain users
(or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root
while logging all commands and arguments. Sudo operates on a per-command
basis. It is not a replacement for the shell. Features include: the
ability to restrict what commands a user may run on a per-host basis,
copious logging of each command (providing a clear audit trail of who did
what), a configurable timeout of the sudo command, and the ability to use
the same configuration file (sudoers) on many different machines.

sudo < TSL 3.0 > < TSL 2.2 > < TSEL 2 >
- SECURITY FIX: Tavis Ormandy has reported a vulnerability in Sudo,
which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated
privileges.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the environment
cleaning. This can be exploited by a user with sudo access to a bash
script to execute arbitrary commands via the "SHELLOPTS" and "PS4"
environment variables
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2005-2959.
