Subject:		Linux: sendmail smrsh bypass vulnerabilities 
Advisory number: 	CSSA-2002-052.0
Issue date: 		2002 November 21

______________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description

	From the iDEFENSE Security Advisory 10.01.02:

	It is possible for an attacker to bypass the restrictions
	imposed by The Sendmail Consortium's Restricted Shell (SMRSH)
	and execute a binary of his choosing by inserting a special
	character sequence into his .forward file. SMRSH is an
	application intended as a replacement for sh for use in
	Sendmail.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

3. Solution

	The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many
	customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called
	cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these
	packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand.
