Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2008-3214
2008-04-21 23:23:01
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : fedora-ds-admin
Product     : Fedora 7
Version     : 1.1.4
Release     : 1.fc7
URL         : http://directory.fedoraproject.org/
Summary     : Fedora Administration Server (admin)
Description :
Fedora Administration Server is an HTTP agent that provides management features
for Fedora Directory Server.  It provides some management web apps that can
be used through a web browser.  It provides the authentication, access control,
and CGI utilities used by the console.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This release addresses two security vulerabilities in the package:  - shell
command injection in CGI replication monitor (CVE-2008-0892)  - unrestricted
access to CGI scripts (CVE-2008-0893)    Fix Description:  Remove ScriptAlias
for bin/admin/admin/bin - do not use that directory for CGI URIs - use only
protected URIs for CGIs requiring authentication  Remove most CGI parameters
from repl-monitor-cgi.pl - user must supply replmon.conf in the admin server
config directory instead of passing in this pathname - repl-monitor-cgi.pl does
not use system to call repl-monitor.pl, it "includes" that script (using perl
import).
