			SCO Security Advisory

Subject:		UnixWare 7.1.1 Open UNIX 8.0.0 UnixWare 7.1.3 : REVISED: Lax permissions on /dev/X
Advisory number: 	CSSA-2003-SCO.4.1
Issue date: 		2003 March 10
Cross reference:	CSSA-2003-SCO.4
______________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description

	The /dev/X directory is world readable and writable, and
	the files in it are also world readable and writable.
	Denial-of-Service attacks are possible, as well as possible
	data hijacking. The X server sets these permissions when
	it starts up, so there is no workaround for this issue.

	This update fixes an install problem on Open UNIX 8 and
	UnixWare 7.1.3.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

	System				Binaries
	----------------------------------------------------------------------
	UnixWare 7.1.1			Standard X Distribution
	Open UNIX 8.0.0			Standard X Distribution
	UnixWare 7.1.3			Standard X Distribution


3. Solution

	The proper solution is to install the latest packages.


4. UnixWare 7.1.1

	4.1 Location of Fixed Binaries

	ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/updates/UnixWare/CSSA-2003-SCO.4.1


	4.2 Verification

	MD5 (basex711.pkg.Z) = 510888d562f6c2249555fefdae94d49d

	4.3 Installing Fixed Binaries

	Upgrade the affected binaries with the following sequence:

	Download basex711.pkg.Z to the /var/spool/pkg directory
	Download xserver711.pkg.Z to the /var/spool/pkg directory

	# uncompress /var/spool/pkg/basex711.pkg.Z
	# pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/basex711.pkg

	# uncompress /var/spool/pkg/xserver711.pkg.Z
	# pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/xserver711.pkg

	md5 is available for download from
		ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/security/tools


	5.3 Installing Fixed Binaries

	Upgrade the affected binaries with the following sequence:
