Subject: [FLSA-2004:1947] Updated glibc packages fix flaws

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
               Fedora Legacy Update Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated glibc packages fix flaws
Advisory ID:       FLSA:1947
Issue date:        2004-10-23
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          Bugfix
Cross references:  https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1947
CVE Names:         CAN-2002-0029
-----------------------------------------------------------------------


-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:

Updated glibc packages that fix a security flaw in the resolver as well
as dlclose handling are now available.

The GNU libc packages (known as glibc) contain the standard C libraries
used by applications.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386

3. Problem description:

A security audit of glibc revealed a flaw in the resolver library which
was originally reported as affecting versions of ISC BIND 4.9. This flaw
also applied to glibc versions before 2.3.2. An attacker who is able to
send DNS responses (perhaps by creating a malicious DNS server) could
remotely exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code or cause a
denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
(cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2002-0029 to this issue.

All users of glibc should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade.  Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated.  Those RPMs which
are not installed but included in the list will not be updated.  Note
that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only*
contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt.  Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates.  To use yum issue:

yum update

or to use apt:

apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.  This assumes that you
have yum or apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content.
Please visit http://www fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to
configure yum and apt-get.

These packages are GPG signed by Fedora Legacy for security.  Our key is
available from http://www.fedoralegacy org/about/security.php

You can verify each package with the following command:

    rpm --checksig -v <filename>

If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the sha1sum with the following command:

    sha1sum <filename>
