Trustix Secure Linux Bugfix Advisory #2004-0013

Package name:      anaconda, bind, cyrus-imap, gcc, iptables, mod_php4,
                   module-init-tools, modutils, openssh, postgresql, python,
                   rpm, samba, swup, util-linux
Summary:           First bugfix updates for TSL 2.1
Date:              2004-03-18
Affected versions: Trustix 2.1

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
  anaconda:
  The anaconda package contains portions of the Trustix Secure Linux
  installation program which can then be run by the user for
  reconfiguration and advanced installation options.
  
  bind:
  BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is an implementation of the DNS
  (Domain Name System) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named),
  which resolves host names to IP addresses, and a resolver library
  (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS).  A DNS
  server allows clients to name resources or objects and share the
  information with other network machines.  The named DNS server can be
  used on workstations as a caching name server, but is generally only
  needed on one machine for an entire network.
  
  cyrus-imap:
  The Cyrus IMAP server is a scaleable enterprise mail system
  designed for use from small to large enterprise environments using
  standards-based technologies.
  
  gcc:
  The gcc package contains the GNU Compiler Collection: cc and gcc. You'll need
  this package in order to compile C code.

  iptables:
  The iptables utility controls the network packet filtering code in the
  Linux kernel. If you need to set up firewalls and/or IP masquerading,
  you must install this package.
  
  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.
  
  module-init-tools:
  The module-init-tools package includes programs for managing automatic
  loading and unloading of modules under 2.6 kernels, with support for older
  kenrnels using the old modutils package, as well as other module management
  programs.  Examples of loaded and unloaded modules are device drivers and
  filesystems, as well as some other things.
  
  modutils:
  The modutils packages includes programs for managing automatic
  loading and unloading of modules under 2.2 and 2.4 kernels, as well as
  other module management programs.  Examples of loaded and unloaded
  modules are device drivers and filesystems, as well as some other things.
  
  openssh:
  Ssh (Secure Shell) a program for logging into a remote machine and for
  executing commands in a remote machine.  It is intended to replace
  rlogin and rsh, and provide secure encrypted communications between
  two untrusted hosts over an insecure network.  X11 connections and
  arbitrary TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
  OpenSSH is OpenBSD's rework of the last free version of SSH, bringing it
  up to date in terms of security and features, as well as removing all
  patented algorithms to seperate libraries (OpenSSL).
  
  postgresql:
  PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system
  (DBMS) that supports almost all SQL constructs (including
  transactions, subselects and user-defined types and functions). The
  postgresql package includes the client programs and libraries that
  you'll need to access a PostgreSQL DBMS server.  These PostgreSQL
  client programs are programs that directly manipulate the internal
  structure of PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server. These client
  programs can be located on the same machine with the PostgreSQL
  server, or may be on a remote machine which accesses a PostgreSQL
  server over a network connection. This package contains the docs
  in HTML for the whole package, as well as command-line utilities for
  managing PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server.
  
  python:
  Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
  language often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme or Java. Python includes
  modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types and
  dynamic typing. Python supports interfaces to many system calls and
  libraries.
  
  rpm:
  The RPM Package Manager is a powerful command line driven package
  management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying,
  querying, and updating software packages.  Each software package
  consists of an archive of files along with information about the
  package like its version, a description, etc.
  
  samba:
  Samba provides an SMB server which can be used to provide network
  services to SMB (sometimes called "Lan Manager") clients, including
  various versions of MS Windows, OS/2, and other Linux machines. Samba
  uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT need NetBEUI
  (Microsoft Raw NetBIOS frame) protocol.
  
  swup:
  SWUP - SoftWare UPdater is an extension for existing software packaging
  systems to facilitate automatic and secure update and install. SWUP
  handles dependencies between software packages, and is able to fetch
  additional required software when installing or upgrading.
  
  util-linux:
  The util-linux package contains a large variety of low-level system
  utilities that are necessary for a Linux system to function.  Among
  many features, Util-linux contains the fdisk configuration tool and
  the login program.


Problem description:
  anaconda:
  Added XFS support.  Note that this does work on /boot.

  bind:
  Added allow-query { any; }; to the external view.
  This allows query of those zones in that view without specifying it in
  each and every one.

  cyrus-imapd:
  New upstream version which fixes some reported bugs.

  gcc:
  Turn off stack protection by default.

  iptables:
  Fixed bug in ICMP configuration.

  mod_php4:
  Added the missing extensions to the php.ini files.

  module-init-tools:
  New upstream.  No longer a pre-release.

  modutils:
  New upstream to fit module-init-tools.

  openssh:
  Fixed default sftp subsystem path.

  postgresql:
  New upstream version with critical bugfixes.
  NOTE: This package requires manual upgrade.  Please see the PostgreSQL
  release notes at http://www.postgresql.org/news/173.html

  python:
  Added patch from upstream to fix CacheFTPHandler.

  rpm:
  Add a enable_stack_protector_by_default option.

  samba:
  Added missing Requires on glibc-locales.

  swup:
  Now uses the fixed CacheFTPHandler.  Should increase the speed on
  sites using ftp.

  util-linux:
  Removed patch that breaks rpc dependent mounting.


Action:
  We recommend that all systems with this package installed be upgraded.
  Please note that if you do not need the functionality provided by this
  package, you may want to remove it from your system.
