Message-ID: <OpenPKG-SA-2004.004@openpkg.org> From: openpkg at openpkg.org (OpenPKG) Subject: [OpenPKG-SA-2004.004] OpenPKG Security Advisory (libtool) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ OpenPKG Security Advisory The OpenPKG Project http://www.openpkg.org/security.html http://www.openpkg.org openpkg-security@...npkg.org openpkg@...npkg.org OpenPKG-SA-2004.004 08-Mar-2004 ________________________________________________________________________ Package: libtool Vulnerability: insecure creation of temporary directory OpenPKG Specific: no Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages: OpenPKG CURRENT <= libtool-1.5.2-20040207 >= libtool-1.5.2-20040308 OpenPKG 2.0 <= libtool-1.5.2-2.0.0 >= libtool-1.5.2-2.0.1 OpenPKG 1.3 <= libtool-1.5-1.3.0 >= libtool-1.5-1.3.1 Dependent Packages: none Description: According to a posting on Bugtraq [0], an issue regarding the insecure creation of a temporary directory exists in GNU libtool [1] versions before 1.5.2. Use of mkdir(1) along with option "-p" makes libtool vulnerable to symlink attacks. Stefan Nordhausen commited a fix that removes the use of option "-p" in version 1.5.2. Discussion on Bugtraq further indicates that an additional race condition issue exists in the same context using chmod(1), reported by Joseph S. Myers back in March 2000 [2]. The updated OpenPKG versions of libtool contain fixes for both issues. Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q libtool". If you have the "libtool" package installed and its version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it (see Solution). [3][4] Solution: Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM [4]. For the current release OpenPKG 2.0, perform the following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases adjust accordingly). $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org ftp> bin ftp> cd release/2.0/UPD ftp> get libtool-1.5.2-2.0.1.src.rpm ftp> bye $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig libtool-1.5.2-2.0.1.src.rpm $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild libtool-1.5.2-2.0.1.src.rpm $ su - # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/libtool-1.5.2-2.0.1.*.rpm ________________________________________________________________________ References: [0] http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=107577516526919&w=4 [1] http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/ [2] http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=3438808&list=405 [3] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html#regular-source [4] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html#regular-binary [5] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.3/UPD/libtool-1.5-1.3.1.src.rpm [6] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/2.0/UPD/libtool-1.5.2-2.0.1.src.rpm [7] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.3/UPD/ [8] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/2.0/UPD/ [9] http://www.openpkg.org/security.html#signature ________________________________________________________________________ For security reasons, this advisory was digitally signed with the OpenPGP public key "OpenPKG <openpkg@...npkg.org>" (ID 63C4CB9F) of the OpenPKG project which you can retrieve from http://pgp.openpkg.org and hkp://pgp.openpkg.org.
