Package:             dhcpd
Vulnerability:       denial of service, arbitrary code execution
OpenPKG Specific:    no

Affected Releases:   Affected Packages:          Corrected Packages:
OpenPKG CURRENT      <= dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-20040524 >= dhcpd-3.0.1rc14-20040623
OpenPKG 2.0          <= dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-2.0.0    >= dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-2.0.1
OpenPKG 1.3          <= dhcpd-3.0.1rc11-1.3.0    >= dhcpd-3.0.1rc11-1.3.1

Affected Releases:   Dependent Packages: none

Description:
  As reported by US-CERT [0] Gregory Duchemin discovered several
  vulnerabilities in the ISC DHCP Distribution [1].

  Several buffer overflows were closed in logging messages with
  excessively long hostnames provided by the clients. The Common
  Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
  CAN-2004-0460 [2] to the problem.

  Another issue was evident on some specific platforms where the dhcpd
  build mechanism ignored the existence of [v]snprintf(3) functions
  and used the weaker [v]sprintf(3) which lack boundary checking. The
  RELEASE updates enforce use of the favorable functions after it was
  verified they exist on all platforms supported by OpenPKG. The CURRENT
  update contains a vendor fix explicitly providing a suitable function.
  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
  CAN-2004-0461 [3] to the problem.

  Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
  -q dhcpd". If you have the "dhcpd" package installed and its version
  is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade
  it (see Solution) [4][5].

Solution:
  Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
  [6][7], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [8][9] or a mirror
  location, verify its integrity [10], build a corresponding binary RPM
  from it [4] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
  binary RPM [5]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.0, perform the
  following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
  other releases adjust accordingly).

  $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
  ftp> bin
  ftp> cd release/2.0/UPD
  ftp> get dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-2.0.1.src.rpm
  ftp> bye
  $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-2.0.1.src.rpm
  $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-2.0.1.src.rpm
  $ su -
  # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/dhcpd-3.0.1rc13-2.0.1.*.rpm
