			SCO Security Advisory

Subject:		OpenServer 5.0.6 OpenServer 5.0.7 : uudecode does not check for symlink or pipe
Advisory number: 	SCOSA-2004.12
Issue date: 		2004 July 29
Cross reference:	sr864864 fz527541 erg712054 CAN-2002-0178
______________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description

	The uudecode utility would create an output file without
	checking to see if it was about to write to a symlink or a
	pipe. If a user uses uudecode to extract data into open
	shared directories, such as /tmp, this vulnerability could
	be used by a local attacker to overwrite files or lead to
	privilege escalation. 

	The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) 
	has assigned the name CAN-2002-0178 to this issue.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

	System				Binaries
	----------------------------------------------------------------------
	OpenServer 5.0.6 		/usr/bin/uudecode
	OpenServer 5.0.7 		/usr/bin/uudecode

3. Solution

	The proper solution is to install the latest packages.
