CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
PACKAGE : bugzilla
SUMMARY : Fix for several vulnerabilities
DATE : 2003-11-05 18:27:00
ID : CLA-2003:774
RELEVANT
RELEASES : 9
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
Bugzilla[1] is a bug tracking system used by many software projects.
Several vulnerabilities have been announced[2] and are being fixed in
this update.
1. SQL injection in "collectstats.pl" [3]
An user with 'editproducts' privileges (usually an administrator) can
select arbitrary SQL commands to be run by the nightly statistics
cron job (collectstats.pl) by giving a product a carefully crafted
name.
2. SQL injection in "editkeywords" [4]
An user with 'editkeywords' privileges (usually an administrator) can
inject arbitrary SQL commands via the URL used to edit an existing
keyword.
3. Privilege mishandling [5]
When deleting products and the 'usebuggroups' parameter is on, the
privilege which allows someone to add people to the group which is
being deleted does not get removed, allowing users with that
privilege to get that privilege for the next group that is created
which reuses that group ID. This only allows someone who had been
granted privileges in the past to retain them.
4. Information leak [6]
If the email address of someone who has voted on a restricted ticket
is known, the summary of that ticket can be accessed by users which
would usually have no such privileges.
SOLUTION
It is recommended that all bugzilla users upgrade their packages.
IMPORTANT: after the upgrade, please run the following bugzilla
script:
/srv/www/default/html/bugzilla/checksetup.pl
This script will make all necessary adjustments for this upgrade as
well as alert about possible problems.
