Subject:		UnixWare 7.1.1 Open UNIX 8.0.0 : Several vulnerabilities in XDR/RPC routines
Advisory number: 	CSSA-2003-SCO.7
Issue date: 		2003 March 19
Cross reference:
______________________________________________________________________________
1. Problem Description
	 The implementation of xdr_array can be tricked into writing
	 beyond the buffers it allocated when deserializing the XDR
	 stream.
	 The xdrmem_getbytes() function in the XDR library provided by
	 Sun Microsystems contains an integer overflow that can lead
	 to improperly sized dynamic memory allocation. 
2. Vulnerable Supported Versions
	System				Binaries
	----------------------------------------------------------------------
	UnixWare 7.1.1			/etc/conf/pack.d/krpc/Driver_atup.o
					/etc/conf/pack.d/krpc/Driver_mp.o
					/usr/lib/tmp/libnsl.so
	Open UNIX 8.0.0			/etc/conf/pack.d/krpc/Driver_atup.o
					/etc/conf/pack.d/krpc/Driver_mp.o
					/usr/lib/tmp/libnsl.so
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/OpenUNIX/CSSA-2003-SCO.7
	4.2 Verification

	md5 is available for download from
		ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/security/tools
	4.3 Installing Fixed Binaries
	Upgrade the affected binaries with the following sequence:
	NOTE: THE uw711m2 MAINTENANCE SUPPLEMENT MUST BE INSTALLED
	PRIOR TO INSTALLING THIS UPDATE.
	Download erg712182.pkg.Z to the /var/spool/pkg directory
	# uncompress /var/spool/pkg/erg712182.pkg.Z
	# pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/erg712182.pkg
5. Open UNIX 8.0.0

	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:
	NOTE: THE ou800pk4 MAINTENANCE SUPPLEMENT MUST BE INSTALLED
	PRIOR TO INSTALLING THIS UPDATE.
	Download erg712182b.pkg.Z to the /var/spool/pkg directory
