Message-ID: <200411231319.LAA01670@frajuto.distro.conectiva> Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2004 11:19:32 -0200 From: Conectiva Updates <secure@...ectiva.com.br> To: conectiva-updates@...aleguas.conectiva.com.br, lwn@....net, bugtraq@...urityfocus.com, security-alerts@...uxsecurity.com, linsec@...ts.seifried.org Subject: [CLA-2004:894] Conectiva Security Announcement - shadow-utils -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACKAGE : shadow-utils SUMMARY : Fix for shadow-utils authentication bypass vulnerability DATE : 2004-11-23 11:12:00 ID : CLA-2004:894 RELEVANT RELEASES : 9, 10 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION shadow-utils[1] is a collection of utilities for managing shadow password files and user/group accounts. Martin Schulze reported a vulnerability[2] in the passwd_check() function in "libmisc/pwdcheck.c" which is used by chfn and chsh and thus may allow a local attacker to use them to change the standard shell of other users or modify their GECOS information (full name, phone number...). SOLUTION It is recommended that all Conectiva Linux users upgrade their packages.
