The following are known problems with Red Hat Linux 4.2 on multiple platforms. Updates are available for FTP from:
If you have problems downloading fixes from the official site (ftp.redhat.com), please try one of the many Red Hat mirrors.
Please note that newer versions of some of these packages may be available in the same location; any new versions which are made available will fix all of the bugs older versions did, so you can use the latest version with no problems.
We are no longer separating the errata into general and platform specific
errata If you are unsure whether an errata update is for your system, the
following information should help:
Intel and Intel-based platform specific RPMs will have the i386 extension,
Sparc RPMs will have the sparc extension, and RPMs for the Alpha systems
will have the alpha extension. This extension is before .rpm. For example:
foo.1.2-3.i386.rpm would be for the Intel systems
foo.1.2-3.sparc.rpm would be for Sparc systems
foo.1.2-3.alpha.rpm would be for Alpha systems
If you experience problems downloading the RPMS using Netscape or Internet Explorer, you will need to explicitely download to file versus opening in a window. The problem you are encountering is that both browsers think that .rpm files are text files and thus try to show the contents. In netscape, you can Shift-Click to correctly download the file.
| Synopsis: | New Samba packages for Red Hat Linux 4.2, 5.2, 6.0 |

| Updated on: | 1990-07-29 |
| Keywords: | samba smbd nmbd security |
Revision History:
1999-07-23: Fix 'Conflicts with' section about smbmount with 2.0/2.2
kernels.
1999-07-29: Add note about %postun of Red Hat Linux 6.0 samba release.
1. Topic:
Samba 2.0.5a has been released. Among the fixes in this release are several security issues present in previous Samba releases.
2. Bug IDs fixed:
1321 2557 2625 2779 2923 2982 3715
3. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 4.2, all architectures
4. Obsoleted by:
None
5. Conflicts with:
The smbmount code shipped with Samba 2.0 is only compatible
with the Linux 2.2 kernel, so it has not been built for
the Red Hat Linux 4.2 and 5.2 releases. If smbmount
support for the 2.2 kernel is needed under Red Hat Linux
4.2 or 5.2, the source RPM can be rebuilt with the following
command line (RPM version 3.0 is required):
rpm --define "KERN22 yes" --rebuild samba-2.0.5a-
The samba package shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.0 (samba-2.0.3-8)
has an erroneous post-uninstall script. If this package is upgraded
to the errata release, it could cause /var/log/samba and
/var/lock/samba to be missing. It is recommended that users
of samba under Red Hat Linux 6.0 uninstall the previous release
using 'rpm -e samba' before installing the errata release.
6. RPMs required:
Intel:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/i386/
samba-2.0.5a-0.4.2.i386.rpm Alpha:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/alpha/
samba-2.0.5a-0.4.2.alpha.rpm SPARC:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/sparc/
samba-2.0.5a-0.4.2.sparc.rpm Source:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/SRPMS 7. Problem description:
Several security issues were present in earlier samba releases.
- a denial-of-service attack could be performed against nmbd.
- a buffer overflow was present in the message service in smbd
(not enabled by default under Red Hat Linux)
- a race condition was present in smbmnt that could cause problems
if installed setuid root (it is not installed setuid root by
default under Red Hat Linux 6.0, and is not present under Red
Hat Linux 4.2 or 5.2)
Thanks go to Olaf Kirch (okir@caldera.de) for discovering the
security holes, as well as the Samba team.
8. Solution:
Install the updated RPMs, and restart the affected services by
running:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart
For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Uvh filename
where filename is the name of the RPM.
9. Verification:
You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig
If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
rpm --checksig --nopgp 10. References:

1. Topic:
This release of rpm is intended to permit all Red Hat platforms to
use the same version of rpm.
2. Bug IDs fixed:
The most significant user-visible bugs fixed in rpm-3.0.2 are 3. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 4.x, all architectures
4. Obsoleted by:
None
5. Conflicts with:
Packages that are linked with rpm-2.5.x libraries. This includes
rpmfind, rpm2html, gnorpm, and kpackage. You will need to upgrade
to a version of these packages that have been linked with rpm-3.0.x
libraries.
6. RPMs required:
Intel:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/i386/
rpm-3.0.2-4.x.i386.rpm Alpha:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/alpha/
rpm-3.0.2-4.x.alpha.rpm SPARC:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/sparc/
rpm-3.0.2-4.x.sparc.rpm Source:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/4.2/SRPMS/
This release of rpm is intended to permit all Red Hat platforms to
use the same version of rpm.
8. Solution:
Upgrade to the latest errata release of rpm by downloading the correct
rpm and rpm-devel packages for your architecture and version of Red Hat
Linux.
You should install the packages by typing (assuming Red Hat 6.0/en/os/i386)
If you are upgrading from rpm-2.5.x, you should then type
If you use rpm to build packages, please note that the method of
configuring rpm has changed. The commonest configuration problem
encountered by packagers who upgrade is how to set topdir to
something other than /usr/src/redhat:
In rpm-2.5.x, you would put the following in ~/.rpmrc
topdir: /path/to/your/directory/here
In rpm-3.0.x, you should put the following in ~/.rpmmacros
%_topdir /path/to/your/directory/here
9. Verification:
You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig
If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
rpm --checksig --nopgp 10. References:

Solution:
Please note that Red Hat Linux 4.x users should have the latest errata
rpm packages installed to be able to install this architecture
independent package.
Updated: 16-Apr-1999
Problem:
Same as before. We are moving NFS Updates to the top of the
list and also updating it to the latest version. If you have
an older version installed, please update.
Due to many reports of continued security breaches from
NFS, we are moving the NFS update to the top of the list
to make sure people update to it if they have not already.
As faq-maintainer,
I would like to apologize in the delay for doing this.
Solution:
Updated: 16-Apr-1999
Problem:
Potential security problems have been identified in all the
procmail packages shipped with Red Hat Linux. Currently Red
Hat is not aware of any exploits built on these
vulnerabilities.
Red Hat would like to thank the members of the Bugtraq list
for reporting these problems and the authors of procmail for
quickly providing an update.
Users of Red Hat Linux are recommended to upgrade to the new
packages available under updates directory on our ftp site:
Solution:
Updated: 16-Apr-1999
Problem:
Security vulnerabilities have been found in the versions of
lpr that ship with Red Hat Linux. Thanks go to the Linux
Security Audit team for discovering the vulnerability. It is
recommended that all users of Red Hat Linux upgrade to the
new packages.
More buffer overflows have been found in lpr 0.30 as released on
Saturday. As these flaws may allow users to gain root access
to the local system, Red Hat, Inc. recommends that all
users upgrade to lpr 0.31 immediately.
Thanks to Niall Smart for finding this problem.
A major security problem has been found in all versions of
lpr shipped with Red Hat Linux. Version 0.30 of lpr fixes
this and is now available. Red Hat, Inc. encourages all
users of Red Hat to upgrade to this new version immediately.
Solution: Updated: 01-Apr-1999
Problem:
Security vulnerabilities have been identified in the XFree86
packages that ship with Red Hat Linux. This security problem
can allow local users to get write access to directories
that they are otherwise not able to write to.
Red Hat would like to thank the members of the BUGTRAQ
mailing list, the members of the Linux Security Audit team,
and others. All users of Red Hat Linux are encouraged to
upgrade to the new packages immediately. As always, these
packages have been signed with the Red Hat PGP key.
We are not releasing an updated Xconfigurator at this
time; if you have a graphics card which is not supported by
the latest available version of Xconfigurator for your
platform and release, we suggest you use the xf86config
program which comes with XFree86. You may also want to use
the XF86Setup program.
Solution:
In some circumstances, you may be required to add --force
and/or --nodeps to the rpm command line options to insure
a proper upgrade. Add these options if the command line given
gives an error.
Also as with all newer RPM packages you will need to upgrade
to the latest RPM before installing these packages.
Required RPMS
You will want one of the following RPMS for your video
card.
You might want one or more of these RPMS if you do
development. Further Instructions
For instructions on upgrading users should read the Red Hat XFree86 upgrade
howto. This document is in its initial drafts, but should be
useful.
The X environment which shipped with Red Hat 4.2 SPARC
was different than that for other architectures. X was
placed in the directory /usr/X11R6.1, whereas every other
architecture expected it to reside under /usr/X11R6. This
errata release corrects the situation. As you upgrade the
packages, YOU WILL SEE ERRORS FROM RPM about missing
files, but they can safely be ignored.
The following instructions will work for an unmodified
Red Hat 4.2 SPARC environment.
Updated: 01-Apr-1999
Problem:

Problem:
Current minicom packages have permissions set to allow all
users to access a modem on a system. This update fixes this
problem limiting users to those listed in the minicom
configuration file.
New packages are available for the supported versions of Red
Hat Linux. All users of Red Hat Linux are encouraged to
upgrade to the new minicom releases immediately. As always,
these packages have been signed with the Red Hat PGP key.
Buffer overflows have been found in the minicom package. Red Hat
suggests all users upgrade to a new minicom version immediately.
Solution: Updated: 03-Jan-1999
Problem:
Red Hat has further patched the standard 2.0.36 kernel
with updated drivers for the Adaptec 7xxx cards, NCR scsi,
3com 905B, and some other patches.
Several security holes were found in the Linux kernel and
patched in the 2.0.36 kernel. Users should upgrade to patch
these problems. The announcement can be found here.
Solution:
You will need to recompile the source code for your
platform.
Due to differences between versioning, Red Hat has patched
the 2.0.35 kernel with the security fixes that are in the
2.0.36 kernel.
Further Instructions
For instructions on upgrading users should read the Red Hat kernel upgrade howto.
While the howto focuses on intel, there are sub
chapters for upgrading alpha and sparc machines.
Updated: 02-Jan-1998
Problem:
The default configuration as shipped with the
supported releases of Red Hat Linux is not vulnerable
to this problem.
A race condition that can be exploited under some
particular scenarios has been identified in all
versions of the Linux-PAM library shipped with all
versions of Red Hat Linux. The vulnerability is
exhibited in the pam_unix_passwd.so module included in
Red Hat Linux, but *not* used by either of the 4.2 or
5.x releases. Red Hat Linux uses the pam_pwdb.so
module for performing PAM authentication.
You are at risk if you enabled pam_unix_passwd.so
and are using it instead of the pam_pwdb.so module. An
exploit occurs when an user with a umask setting of 0
is trying to change the login password.
As of this release there are no known exploits of
this security problem.
Solution:
Updated: 22-Dec-1998
Problem:
A security vulnerability has been identified in all versions
of the ftp client binary shipped with Red Hat Linux. An
exploit for this vulnerability would have to rely on getting
the user to connect using passive mode to a server running a
ftp daemon under the attacker's control. As of this release
time there are no known exploits of this security problem.
All users of Red Hat Linux are encouraged to upgrade to the
new package releases immediately. As always, these packages
have been signed with the Red Hat PGP key.
The FTP client is part of the NetKit package in the 4.2
boxed set.
Solution:
Further Instructions
Once you have downloaded the NetKit package for your
architecture, you will need to do the following as root:
Updated: 14-Nov-1998
Problem:
A buffer overflow has been identified in all versions of the
libc 5 packages shipped with Red Hat Linux. The most affected
systems are those that are libc 5 based (Red Hat Linux 4.2 and
older). Only Intel and Sparc architectures are affected.
The Red Hat Linux 5.x releases are glibc (libc 6) based, and
Red Hat does not ship any binaries linked against libc 5 that
might be used for compromising the system's security. However,
Red Hat Linux 5.x releases do include for backwards
compatibility a package containg a vulnerable library.
Users of Red Hat Linux are recommended to upgrade to the new
packages available under updates directory on our ftp site:
Solution:
Updated: 06-Nov-1998
Problem:
svgalib has been found to leak file descriptors to /dev/mem.
Red Hat would like to thank the users of the BUGTRAQ security
list for identifying the problem and Kevin Vajk
Minor security problems
have been found by the Linux Security Auditing group in
svgalib which allow users to make the console unuseable.
A major security problem
has been found in the svgalib library. This problem
affects all releases of Red Hat Linux on Intel platforms.
svgalib-1.2.10-3 fixes this security hole.
/tmp exploits have been discovered in this package.
As usual, the package has been PGP signed with the
Red Hat PGP key.
Solution:
Updated: 09-Sep-1998
Problem:
A security vulnerability has been identified in all versions of
bash shipped with Red Hat Linux. Details on the nature of the bug
have been posted recently to the BUGTRAQ security list.
The bug is not immediately exploitable - it will require that a
user with shell account on one machine create a carefully
constructed directory structure and then wait for somebody else
with a root account to cd into that directory.
Red Hat would like to thank Joao Manuel Carolino

The "timetool" time and date configuration utility shipped with Red Hat
Linux 4.2 and 5.2 has been found to represent the year 2000 as a
non-leapyear, when in fact February 29, 2000 is a valid date. The
timetool shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.0 does not have this issue.
Users of Red Hat Linux 4.x and 5.x should upgrade to a fixed version
of the timetool, which is available at the following locations:
