Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:129-1
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : busybox
Date : August 10, 2012
Affected: 2011.
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities was found and corrected in busybox:
The decompress function in ncompress allows remote attackers to cause
a denial of service (crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code,
via crafted data that leads to a buffer underflow (CVE-2006-1168).
A missing DHCP option checking / sanitization flaw was reported for
multiple DHCP clients. This flaw may allow DHCP server to trick DHCP
clients to set e.g. system hostname to a specially crafted value
containing shell special characters. Various scripts assume that
hostname is trusted, which may lead to code execution when hostname
is specially crafted (CVE-2011-2716).
Additionally for Mandriva Enterprise Server 5 various problems in
the ka-deploy and uClibc packages was discovered and fixed with
this advisory.
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
Update:
The wrong set of packages was sent out with the MDVSA-2012:129 advisory
that lacked the fix for CVE-2006-1168. This advisory provides the
correct packages.
