Description:
According to a bug report [0] from David F. Skoll a buffer overflow
problem exists in the "wordwrap" function of Personal HomePage (PHP)
[1], a HTML-embedded scripting language. Thanks to Davids input and
help, the source of the problem was tracked down and corrected by
the vendor. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project
assigned the id CAN-2002-1396 [2] to the problem.
Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
-q php". If you have the "php" package installed and its version is
affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
(see Solution). [3][4]
Also run "<prefix>/bin/rpm -qi apache". If you have the "apache"
package installed having the "with_mod_php" option set to "yes" and
its version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
upgrade it (see Solution). [3][4]
Solution:
Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
[5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7] or a mirror
location, verify its integrity [8], build a corresponding binary RPM
from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
RPM [4]. For the release OpenPKG 1.1, perform the following
operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases
adjust accordingly).
$ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
ftp> bin
ftp> cd release/1.1/UPD
ftp> get php-4.2.2-1.1.1.src.rpm
ftp> get apache-1.3.26-1.1.3.src.rpm
ftp> bye
$ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig php-4.2.2-1.1.1.src.rpm

$ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild php-4.2.2-1.1.1.src.rpm
$ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild apache-1.3.26-1.1.3.src.rpm
$ su -
