hylafax: remote code execution
| Package(s): | hylafax |
CVE #(s): | CAN-2003-0886
|
| Created: | November 10, 2003 |
Updated: | November 20, 2003 |
| Description: |
Hylafax is an Open Source fax server
which allows sharing of fax equipment among computers by offering its
service to clients by a protocol similar to FTP. The SuSE Security Team
found a format bug condition during a code review of the hfaxd server. It
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code as root. However, the bug
can not be triggered in hylafax's default configuration. The
"capi4hylafax" packages also need to be updated as a dependency where they
are available. Upgrading to version 4.1.8 fixes the problem; see this advisory for details. |
