Message-ID: <200412012022.SAA07851@frajuto.distro.conectiva> Date: Wed, 1 Dec 2004 18:22:02 -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-2004:904] Conectiva Security Announcement - cyrus-imapd -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACKAGE : cyrus-imapd SUMMARY : Multiple vulnerabilities in cyrus-imapd DATE : 2004-12-01 18:21:00 ID : CLA-2004:904 RELEVANT RELEASES : 9, 10 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION cyrus-imapd[1] is an IMAP and POP3 mail server with several advanced features such as SASL authentication, server-side mail filtering, mailbox ACLs and others. Stefan Esser from e-matters security recently published[2] several vulnerabilities in cyrus-imapd: (if not mentioned otherwise, all vulnerabilities affect both Conectiva Linux 9 and 10) 1. "imapmagicplus" buffer overflow (CAN-2004-1011)[3] If the "imapmagicplus" option is enabled in the server's configuration file, then the LOGIN and PROXY commands can be abused to cause a buffer overflow, allowing remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code as the "cyrus" user. Later on it has been found that the proxyd service also suffered[6] (CAN-2004-1015) from the same problem. Conectiva Linux 9 is not affected by these vulnerabilities. 2. PARTIAL command vulnerability (CAN-2004-1012)[4] The PARTIAL command parser has a vulnerability which would allow authenticated users to cause a memory corruption and possibly execute arbitrary code as the "cyrus" user. 3. FETCH command vulnerability (CAN-2004-1013)[5] The FETCH command parser has a vulnerability which would allow authenticated users to cause a memory corruption and possibly execute arbitrary code as the "cyrus" user. All these vulnerabilities have been fixed upstream with new versions of cyrus-imapd: 2.2.10 for the 2.2.x branch and 2.1.17 for the 2.1.x branch. Below are additional changes in our RPM packages: - for CL10: SNMP support has been removed. It needs a newer net-snmp library than the one that is currently being shipped; - for CL10: the script which attempts to convert the imapd.conf configuration file from 2.1.x to the 2.2.x format has been fixed. Previously it would mangle TLS directives; - for CL9: the init script has been fixed to allow GSSAPI authentication and also to restart the server if it was already running; - for CL9: the cyrus-imapd package now explicitly conflicts with uw-imap-server and uw-pop-server. SOLUTION It is recommended that all cyrus-imapd users upgrade their packages. The service will be automatically restarted after the upgrade if needed.
