Red Hat alert RHSA-2007:0235-02 (util-linux)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Low: util-linux security and bug fix update Advisory ID: RHSA-2007:0235-02 Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0235.html Issue date: 2007-05-01 Updated on: 2007-05-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Keywords: mount fdisk login CVE Names: CVE-2006-7108 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Summary: An updated util-linux package that corrects a security issue and fixes several bugs is now available. This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: The util-linux package contains a collection of basic system utilities. A flaw was found in the way the login process handled logins which did not require authentication. Certain processes which conduct their own authentication could allow a remote user to bypass intended access policies which would normally be enforced by the login process. (CVE-2006-7108) This update also fixes the following bugs: * The partx, addpart and delpart commands were not documented. * The "umount -l" command did not work on hung NFS mounts with cached data. * The mount command did not mount NFS V3 share where sec=none was specified. * The mount command did not read filesystem LABEL from unpartitioned disks. * The mount command did not recognize labels on VFAT filesystems. * The fdisk command did not support 4096 sector size for the "-b" option. * The mount man page did not list option "mand" or information about /etc/mtab limitations. All users of util-linux should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. 4.
