CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PACKAGE   : libtool
SUMMARY   : Insecure handling of temporary files
DATE      : 2004-02-05 18:11:00
ID        : CLA-2004:811
RELEVANT
RELEASES  : 8, 9

DESCRIPTION
 GNU libtool consists of a set of shell scripts used to build shared
 libraries.
 
 Joseph S. Myers and Stefan Nordhausen independently found[1,2] a
 vulnerability[3] in the way the ltmain.sh script (which is part of
 the libtool package) creates temporary directories for its use.
 
 A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to change/delete
 arbitrary files in the system on behalf of the user who is calling
 the script.
 
 The vulnerability has been fixed in the 1.5.2 version of libtool.
 This update keeps the original versions distributed with Conectiva
 Linux, fixing the vulnerability by using mktemp to securely create
 the directories.


SOLUTION
 All developers using libtool should upgrade.
