-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-10285 2009-10-06 08:55:24 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : dnsmasq Product : Fedora 11 Version : 2.46 Release : 3.fc11 URL : http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/ Summary : A lightweight DHCP/caching DNS server Description : Dnsmasq is lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP server. It is designed to provide DNS and, optionally, DHCP, to a small network. It can serve the names of local machines which are not in the global DNS. The DHCP server integrates with the DNS server and allows machines with DHCP-allocated addresses to appear in the DNS with names configured either in each host or in a central configuration file. Dnsmasq supports static and dynamic DHCP leases and BOOTP for network booting of diskless machines. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update fixes two security issues with dnsmasq's tftp server: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2957 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2958 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Oct 5 2009 Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> - 2.46-3 - Fix multiple TFTP server vulnerabilities (CVE-2009-2957, CVE-2009-2958) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #519020 - CVE-2009-2957, CVE-2009-2958 dnsmasq: multiple vulnerabilities in TFTP server https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=519020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
