ReSent-Message-ID: X-Archive-Number: 200009/6 Hi, I'm using xscreensaver with the -lock-mode option. When i lock my screen using, say, "xscreensaver-command -lock" in a xterm, or by using the "lock screen" button from the Gnome menu, my screen locks alright, but gives authorization failure when i enter the password to go back. The docs say that xscreensaver runs as user nobody on some machines, so i tried setting a password for nobody and used that but no luck. Root's password doesnt work either. Can anyone tell me whats happening here? Regards, -- Sundeep.

Welcome to the "Great Email Hole". Think of the email concept as being very similar to a Postal Mail concept, with mail delivery to Post Office Boxes.

Sure, and the post office does not object to me calling myself as "Ghane". >Seeing this , i was amazed that the whole purpose of password protection >in emails >is a fake , when anyone can send any mail with a reply to address as >mine. No. There is no password or authentication required to call myself Ghane. I can send letters through the postal services, marking the sender's address as "Ghane". >I even came across this text , a technique for sending fake e-mails. You >simply >telnet to the smtp port of a mail server use the following commds and >presto! >a fake mail with a different return address. I tried this and it does >work . Exactly. Letters I send with the my address as "Ghane" can be dropped off into ANY post box in Delhi. No questions asked. >Is there a way of defeating this??? Defeat what? Think it over carefully.

I have been assigned a project of setting up FTP server on the Linux machine by my boss. I've configured WU FTPd on the Linux machine and I am using CuteFTP utility on all the Windows machines. Setting up the FTP server on Linux server was very easy and I experienced no problem whatsoever. I can transfer files to and from the Linux machine, but only when I tested the FTP Server with a huge file of about 17Mb, noticed a peculiar problem. When copying that huge file onto the Linux machine over the LAN from any of the Windows machines through CuteFTP, the average throughput I got was about 108.14 Kb/Sec. After copying the 17Mb file onto the Linux box and deleting the original copy of the huge file from Windows machine, I tried to download the same file from Linux box onto the Windows machine. This time the average throughput I got was about 5.6Kb/Sec. Ever since I've been wondering, why just 5.6Kb/sec? Could somebody please point me where and what am I doing wrong? For any other technical details (for eg /etc/ftpaccess), please let me know. Lots of thanks in advance. Srikrishan _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Security Advisory Synopsis: glibc vulnerabilities in ld.so, locale and gettext Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:057-01 Issue date: 2000-09-01 Updated on: 2000-09-01 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: glibc ld.so locale LANG gettext LD_PRELOAD threads Cross references: N/A --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Several bugs were discovered in glibc which could allow local users to gain root privileges. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 5.0 - i386, alpha Red Hat Linux 5.1 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 5.2 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.0 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386, alpha, sparc, sparcv9 Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386, alpha, sparc, sparcv9 3. Problem description: The dynamic linker ld.so uses several environment variables like LD_PRELOAD and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to load additional libraries or modify the library search path. It is unsafe to accept arbitrary user specified values of these variables when executing setuid applications, so ld.so handles them specially in setuid programs and also removes them from the environment. One of the discovered bugs causes these variables not to be removed from the environment under certain circumstances. This does not cause any threat to setuid application themselves, but it could be exploited if a setuid application does not either drop privileges or clean up its environment prior to executing other programs. A number of additional bugs have been found in glibc locale and internationalization security checks. In internationalized programs, users are permitted to select a locale or choose message catalogues using environment variables such as LANG or LC_*. The content of these variables is then used as part of pathnames for searching message catalogues or locale files. Normally, if these variables contain "/" characters, a program can load the internationalization files from arbitrary directories. This is unnacceptable for setuid programs, which is why glibc does not allow certain settings of these variables if the program is setuid or setgid. However, some of these checks were done in inappropriate places, contained bugs or were completely missing. It is highly probable that some of these bugs can be used for local root exploits. The Red Hat Linux 6.x updates also fix a linuxthreads deadlock bug and handling of certain values of the TZ environment variable. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filename] where filename is the name of the RPM. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): 13785 - Bug in pthreads blocks ability to preempt suspend and resume threads on SMP machines 6.

The first problem is the way ld.so handles environment variables: in order to provide a safe environment for setuid applications it removes certain the environment variables that can influence application execution such as LD_PRELOAD and LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Unfortunately there was a bug that could cause ld.so to not remove them under some conditions. This would affect setuid applications if they execute another binary without dropping privileges or cleaning up the environment themselves. The second problem is the locale handling in glibc. glibc checks for characters like `/' in the LANG and LC_* environment variables to see if someone is trying to trick a program into reading arbitrary files. Unfortunately there were some logic errors in those checks which could be used to make a setuid application use arbitrary files for localization settings, which can be exploited to trick it into executing arbitrary code. These problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-13, and we recommend that you upgrade your glibc package immediately. wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration. Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 alias slink - ------------------------------------ No update is available for slink; we will release an advisory with more information about this release later. Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato - ------------------------------------ Potato was released for the alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc architectures. At this moment packages for m68k are not yet available. As soon as they are ready we will put them online and list them on the security pages at http://security.debian.org/.

I could finally understand the problem and managed a workaround. I am giving it below for information (Also for a correction in case my interpretation is incorrect) - My motherboard/bios (award) is more than two years old. Apparently it does not support larger partitions (alternatively my copy of fdisk does not support it; if this is possible). I found out this after deleting everything and playing around with the DOS fdisk (On my DOS boot floppy). - With 'Large Disk Support' Enabled in fdisk and 'Auto IDE HDD Detection' in bios set to 'Large' I could get a max partition size of 4 GB but total disk size detected was 4 GB on a 8 GB disk. - With 'Large Disk Support' not enabled in fdisk and 'Auto IDE HDD Detection' in bios set to 'LBA' I could get a maximum partition size of 2 GB with total disk size of 8 GB. - (Earlier I had 'Large Disk Support' enabled in fdisk and 'Auto IDE HDD Detection' in bios set to 'LBA' . I coud then get 4 GB primary partition maximum and 8 GB HDD detected. However even with this 4 GB primary partition, once I do a format, the formatting is done only for 2 GB; the balance 2 GB becomes unusable) - What I did was : - In LBA mode, made a primary partition of 2 GB and loaded 'Windows 98' - Installed Linux RH 6.2 using - 23 MB for /boot - 133 MB for Swap - 2 GB for / - 2 GB for /sparelx - Using my DOS boot diskette, created a logical drive (d:) of the balance extended partition (slightly more than 1800 MB) I now have what I had aimed for, ie, 4 GB for windows & 4 GB for linux. As my assessment the problem was either with my bios/motherboard or with my copy of fdisk.

This is _not_ meant to be a fun group, though fortunately, despite yourself, it still is. This is supposed to be a resource for Linux users, for technical help, for general discussion, and IMO to help people do business and earn money with Linux. Fun is the spirit, and not the constitution of it... and its actually people like you who spoil the whole thing. If fun is what you're looking for, consider some other mailing lists... if you know what i mean ;-). Regards, -- Sundeep.

I followed your suggestions and replaced my 100BaseT RealTek(RTL8029) PCI NIC and replaced it with and old ISA 10BaseT NE2000 Compex card. I repeated all my tests, this time the throughput for up and down was almost similar. Here's a startling discovery I made about the former card which I think should be known to everyone. I configured my NT server for FTP and did the same test, still I got the same results as in the LINUX case. So, folks better be careful with 100BaseT RealTek(RTL8029) PCI NIC. Can get more info about the best PCI NIC available in India, which is also a bit cheaper. Thanks, Srikrishan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Hmm, I guess the 'member' was me :-). SO here are the expert comments -- After fiddling around with ReiserFS for a while, on my SuSE 6.4 box, kernel 2.2.14, i finally discarded it. Mostly because i didnt mind the fsck time my box'd take after the occaisional improper shutdown... but the performance drop on my 466MHz 64meg system was too taxing. What ReiserFS site says, IMO might be about its performance vis s vis other journalling file systems, but compared to plain old ext2fs, its a hog. My hard-disk when using ReiserFS used to start thrashing wildly even on, say, opening a couple on netscape windows on kde, and now on ext2fs, everything runs just fine in the same scenario. So the verdict -- if you dont need it, dont run it. If you do need it.... well.. where's the choice? ;-) Regards, -- Sundeep.

Configure pine to deliver mail to sendmail on localhost, and read the Mail-Queue mini howto, which will be wherever debian keeps its mini howto's. And then, to send your mails whenever you connect, put a entry "sendmail -q" in your ip-up.local , wherever debian keeps that too. HTH -- Sundeep.

But today I saw on the rieserfs homepage that this is precisely what they say it will do, i,e it will immediately speed things up. So, I just wanted to know whether any member has been experimenting with journalling FSs and has anything new to share with us.

You can doanload the patch from http://devlinux.com/projects/reiserfs/ web-site... it also has details about the file system and some papers... depending on which ever kernel you're using, you can download the appropiate patch.. i have successfully compile all three kernels with ReiserFS support...

Although I've little knowledge about FreeBSD, but I've read somewhere that its another free version of UNIX. I am a bit confused as both are free (if I am not wrong about FreeBSD) and also Linux is tilted more towards BSD flavor than System V. If possible please provide me some links about this.

Security Advisory Subject: serious vulnerability in glibc NLS code Advisory number: CSSA-2000-030.0 Issue date: 2000 September, 1 Cross reference: ___________________________________________________________________________= ___ 1. Problem Description The GNU C library, glibc, allows users to specify their so-called locale through environment variables such as LANG. The locale determines what language, monetary signs etc to use when communicating with the user. A bug in the parsing of these locale names allows an attacker to trick glibc into using locale information files provided by the attacker, which can make an application crash. This bug can be used by local users to obtain root privilege through various setuid root applications. 2.

I could finally understand the problem and managed a workaround. I am giving it below for information (Also for a correction in case my interpretation is incorrect) - My motherboard/bios (award) is more than two years old. Apparently it does not support larger partitions (alternatively my copy of fdisk does not support it; if this is possible). I found out this after deleting everything and playing around with the DOS fdisk (On my DOS boot floppy). - With 'Large Disk Support' Enabled in fdisk and 'Auto IDE HDD Detection' in bios set to 'Large' I could get a max partition size of 4 GB but total disk size detected was 4 GB on a 8 GB disk. - With 'Large Disk Support' not enabled in fdisk and 'Auto IDE HDD Detection' in bios set to 'LBA' I could get a maximum partition size of 2 GB with total disk size of 8 GB. - (Earlier I had 'Large Disk Support' enabled in fdisk and 'Auto IDE HDD Detection' in bios set to 'LBA' . I coud then get 4 GB primary partition maximum and 8 GB HDD detected. However even with this 4 GB primary partition, once I do a format, the formatting is done only for 2 GB; the balance 2 GB becomes unusable) - What I did was : - In LBA mode, made a primary partition of 2 GB and loaded 'Windows 98' - Installed Linux RH 6.2 using - 23 MB for /boot - 133 MB for Swap - 2 GB for / - 2 GB for /sparelx - Using my DOS boot diskette, created a logical drive (d:) of the balance extended partition (slightly more than 1800 MB) I now have what I had aimed for, ie, 4 GB for windows & 4 GB for linux. As my assessment the problem was either with my bios/motherboard or with my copy of fdisk.

Lots of people read students added there code to this initial code base. Then Bill Joy sold the first tape of Berkely variant of unix. This variant became popular in its own right. Lot of networking code was also added to it. As per belief TCP/IP stack of BSD is the best. Now free BSD is on of the distribution of 4.4 BSD lite which is BSD code - UNIX code 4.4 BSD lite kernel uses microkernel architecture where unix emulation mode is run over a microkernel which provides the basic functionality Best things about FreeBSD Virtual Machine code is implemented to provide fast scheduling and memory management. Memory management is fast so application run faster Linux appliction can be run over FreeBSD and people say they run faster on FreeBSD File System is also very fast many of these things also apply on *BSDs they are from same source tree From linux-delhi-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Sep 6 08:48:31 2000 Received: from ganwaar.com (unknown [203.94.254.25]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 471334A290 for ; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 08:48:14 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from raju@localhost) by ganwaar.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id JAA03778; Wed, 6 Sep 2000 09:00:39 +0530 From: Raju Mathur MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14773.47711.718657.211039@localhost.localdomain> Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2000 09:00:39 +0530 (IST) To: linux-delhi@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Enough is Enough i'm really pissed off [FLAME] In-Reply-To: <5409E61F.72B39A51@yahoo.com> References: <5409E61F.72B39A51@yahoo.com> X-Mailer: VM 6.72 under 21.1 (patch 10) "Capitol Reef" XEmacs Lucid Reply-To: raju@linux-delhi.org X-Archive-Number: 200009/76 Hi Pankaj, >>>>> "Pankaj" == Pankaj Kaushal writes: Pankaj> [snip] Pankaj> NO it is'nt for me when i contacted raj it seemed to be a Pankaj> fun group of people Pankaj> who like Gnu OS and want to learn more of it and want to Pankaj> teach others and want to develope more stuff for it. for Pankaj> me it is still that.

But IMO Linux-Delhi also serves the function of a common meeting ground for all types of people interested in Linux, whether the hacker (you), the educator or the commercial user. I know that we'll keep treading on each others' toes from time to time, since we have different interests, but I'd request a little more consideration for the requirements of people who're not coming into the Linux bandwagon with exactly the same motives. The size of Linux in Delhi at the moment doesn't justify the use of a seperate mailing list for commercial purposes. However, please do not imply that it is wrong to make money out of GPL'd products. The GPL specifically permits you to make money from GNU programs, whether by selling, consulting, enhancing or supporting. After all, you have a job in Sarai doing Linux work, don't you? I'm sure you get paid for working on Linux ;-) Finally, if there's any issue about my vested interests (I make money from Linux and also run the mailing list and help to organise the user group), I'll be glad to step aside in favour of another elected person as soon as we have our first General Body Meet (or earlier, if enough members demand it).

Variables of that kind include LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_PRELOAD. These variables do not have any effect on the suid application itself since the linker ignores them. However, if the suid program executes another non-suid application without dropping privileges and without cleaning the environment, the LD_* variables would allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as the effective uid of the calling suid program. There is currently no program in the SuSE distribution known to be susceptible to this problem. b) locale handling portions of the glibc code fails to properly check given environment settings such as the variable LANGUAGE. This could lead to arbitrary code being executed as root, depending on the permissions and ownerships of the program being used for the exploit. c) A bug in the mutex handling code in the shlibs version for SuSE-7.0 could cause multithreaded applications to hang or crash. This has also been fixed. There is only one way to temporarily circumvent the exploit: Disable all suid applications in the system. SuSE provides a updated packages for the vulnerable libraries. It is strongly recommended to upgrade to the latest version found on our ftp server as described below. The update packages remove all currently known security problems in the glibc package. Download the update packages as described below and install the package with the command `rpm -Fhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm files using the command `rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm', independently from the md5 signatures below. SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS: Note that the complete update consists of three (3) binary rpm packages and one source rpm package per distribution and platform. libc-*.rpm contains the static libraries, libd is the package for the profiling+debugging version of the libraries. If at all possible, keep your machine calm while you perform the update. Execute the following commands after the rpm update has been applied: /sbin/ldconfig # alternatively, use SuSEconfig /sbin/init u # will restart init to make a clean shutdown # possible once needed. i386 Intel Platform: SuSE-7.0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/a1/shlibs-2.1.3-154.i386.rpm 753176172ebf628c6567c70a9b950933 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/d1/libc-2.1.3-154.i386.rpm 0f0696fc359cdb7b13f40a52d6676f09 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/d2/libd-2.1.3-154.i386.rpm 4ca3268f91a9294313cf871e9f7cb8b8 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/zq1/libc-2.1.3-154.src.rpm a6af3232fe6d474d6309c68469c126ec SuSE-6.4 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/a1/shlibs-2.1.3-154.i386.rpm 150dcb3854b066c021c396b4a0fe25e6 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/d1/libc-2.1.3-154.i386.rpm 75c9aef75d6e7e4b196c21bb500d00e0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/d2/libd-2.1.3-154.i386.rpm 47fff508b0b67a82356361aa23c8beae source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/zq1/libc-2.1.3-154.src.rpm bfeaa4e15ecbe1fea986b710152b5fec SuSE-6.3 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/a1/shlibs-2.1.2-47.i386.rpm 8e88f237414a4d8f96131b17267b4d53 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/d1/libc-2.1.2-47.i386.rpm 575bb0c94474add7ae02333cbb77cba0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/d2/libd-2.1.2-47.i386.rpm 8728db143b6393a261aa9060d9321345 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/zq1/libc-2.1.2-47.src.rpm eea1810dceafe5e7f77b4b5137829834 SuSE-6.2 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/a1/shlibs-2.1.1-29.i386.rpm 78360eddc58f3897a14327d2fa214191 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/d1/libc-2.1.1-29.i386.rpm 456cad1d8034d40ebbf8337d1308c4de ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/d2/libd-2.1.1-29.i386.rpm 6dccdf557c6d329b40238a1644368564 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/zq1/libc-2.1.1-29.src.rpm cec489c212826cb2dcc65a602da61da3 SuSE-6.1 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/a1/shlibs-2000.9.5-0.i386.r= pm 7a272e7f15fd2dec69401d4c788de015 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/d1/libc-2000.9.5-0.i386.rpm c748944bbe8a55f69478e6ef0bda843a ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/d2/libd-2000.9.5-0.i386.rpm 7fce2e2e41b62dc985e48ee31f6dac1c source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/zq1/libc-2000.9.5-0.src.rpm 77fa60f5a3a10e02460bd1960b1f78f6 Please use the packages from the SuSE-6.1 directory for SuSE-6.0!

All users of Slackware 7.0 through -current should upgrade this package. d1/glibc.tgz: This is the full glibc 2.1.3 package, complete with headers and static libraries. If you had previously installed this package, you need to upgrade it. des1/descrypt.tgz: Contains a DES-enabled libcrypt.so library. If you have this package, you need to upgrade it as well. IMPORTANT: Be sure to upgrade this package *AFTER* glibcso.tgz and glibc.tgz. WHERE TO FIND THE NEW PACKAGES: ------------------------------- All new packages can be found in the -current branch: ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-current/slakware/a1/glibcso.tgz ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-current/slakware/d1/glibc.tgz ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-current/slakware/des1/descrypt.tgz MD5 SIGNATURES AND CHECKSUMS: ----------------------------- Here are the md5sums and checksums for the packages: 1119944158 781102 a1/glibcso.tgz 4150671113 22146158 d1/glibc.tgz 95989487 95843 des1/descrypt.tgz 0fa3614e6cdee92687c78d84e2587b81 a1/glibcso.tgz 7fafee175cf7acee5d90fd416e92d44b d1/glibc.tgz 3493af0bae0aeea840a464bc53d3b63f des1/descrypt.tgz INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: -------------------------- The three packages above need to be upgraded in single user mode (runlevel 1). Bring the system into runlevel 1: # telinit 1 Then upgrade the packages: # upgradepkg .tgz Then bring the system back into multiuser mode: # telinit 3 Remember, it's also a good idea to backup configuration files before upgrading packages. +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | HOW TO REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THIS MAILING LIST: | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Send an email to majordomo@slackware.com with this text in the body of | | the email message: | | | | unsubscribe slackware-security | | | | You will get a confirmation message back.

By supplying a thoughtfully designed string as the visual bell message, local users can obtain root privilege. Exploit information has been published on security forums. The temporary workaround for this problem would be to remove the suid bit from /usr/bin/screen*. This also requires mode changes in the /tmp/screens directory where the pipes for communication between the client and server part of screen are placed upon start of screen. SuSE provides an update for the vulnerable screen package. It is strongly recommended to upgrade to the latest version found on our ftp server as described below. The update packages remove all currently known security problems in the glibc package.

It cuts majorly into your spare time. now u r talking like a true bofh!!!!!! i hav found that it is better to educate the users abt the system they r using, rather than keeping secrets, as this way i might hav to spend some time explaining some things the first time, but the next time onwards they don't end up eating that much of yr time.. and it is always nice to be friendly with the users . things get much easier that way! u don't end up being blamed for everything that can't be explained!!

I have run into a strange problem here. One of our servers running on a dn.net server has qmail running on it. qmail-smtpd is being run using tcpserver on port 25. Now from the server itself, mails are being delivered to their correct destination i.e. outgoing mails are working both through qmail-inject as well as normal smtp. But connections from outside the server on port 25 are being refused. The message being: >telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused uname -a on the server gives > Linux linuxxxxx.dn.net 2.2.14 #1 SMP Tue Jan 11 11:23:02 EST 2000 i686 unknown The server is a redhat 6.0 with an updated kernel. There is no ipchains package available. The only other place where i thought that it might be a problem is the tcprules set. The particular tcprules set being used is as follows > 127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" > :allow the last line allowing connections from anywhere. From all that i could see there is no restriction on the server anywhere. Even machines from the dn.net domain are not able to connect to this server on port 25. The only other place where there can be a problem is in ipchains. But both ipchains and ipfwadmin are not present. Is there anywhere else I can see to find out any IP based restrictions?? What could be the problem here?? - Sandip ===== =========================================================== SANDIP BHATTACHARYA Mail me @ Personal : sandipb@bigfoot.com Official : sandip@dsfinternet.com Home : http://come.to/sandipb __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

The configuration file that comes with the package contains two security relevant errors: a) Starting in SuSE-6.0, a section in apache's configuration file /etc/httpd/httpd.conf reads Alias /cgi-bin-sdb/ /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/ This allows remote users to read the cgi script sources of the server, located in /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/. b) Starting with SuSE-6.3, the distribution comes with the apache module WebDAV. It is contained in a seperate package, named mod_dav, and it is installed if selected by hand or if a network server configuration has been selected in the installation process. mod_dav is not contained in the default package selection. WebDAV stands for "Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning" and allows users to collaboratively edit and manage files on remote web servers (see http://www.webdav.org/ for further details!). If WebDAV is installed, apache will automatically run with the module activated. Opposing the recommendations on the WebDAV homepage under http://www.webdav.org/mod_dav/#security, there is no access control or authentification activated. This should most definitely be considered a security problem. The overall policy wrt activating an installed package will adopt to th= is conclusion in future releases of the SuSE Linux distribution. Problem a) and b) can be easily solved by changing the relevant parts of apache's configuration file /etc/httpd/httpd.conf: a) Change "Alias /cgi-bin-sdb/ /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/" to read: "ScriptAlias /cgi-bin-sdb/ /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/" Then, restart apache: `/sbin/init.d/apache restart' b) Change "DAV On" to read: "DAV Off". This removes the problem, regardless of the package being installed or not. Alternatively, you may wish to remove the mod_dav package using the command `rpm -e mod_dav'. Then, restart apache: `/sbin/init.d/apache restart' SuSE strongly recommends to have these changes applied as soon as possible. In addition, SuSE provides an update for the vulnerable misconfigured packages for the case that the admin of a SuSE Linux machine did not change the configuration file yet. Download the update package from locations desribed below and install the package with the command `rpm -Fhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm files using the command `rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm', independently from the md5 signatures below. i386 Intel Platform: SuSE-7.0 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/n1/apache-1.3.12-107.i386.r= pm 65bac933de7676ad3d8f63b32c608dad source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/zq1/apache-1.3.12-107.nosrc= .rpm 5b0f9ce9b5e2c3a45356fcd9cdff07ba SuSE-6.4 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/n1/apache-1.3.12-107.i386.r= pm a4bea77974c9d300ac13698e6f9812eb source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/zq1/apache-1.3.12-107.nosrc= .rpm 39cf311c44bc760159c711c7ec97685f SuSE-6.3 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/n1/apache-1.3.9-70.i386.rpm 87d7a6426857e6f3afcf991c273fc1a5 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.3/zq1/apache-1.3.9-70.nosrc.r= pm ab81b76d0c4e6c765b77a69fd4143620 SuSE-6.2 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/n1/apache-1.3.6-52.i386.rpm d7c513bb4aad15a9f3dfb11ff1302405 source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/zq1/apache-1.3.6-52.nosrc.r= pm bdabbdf7df648c3b4b8c5fd031e65cfc SuSE-6.1 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/n1/apache-1.3.6-53.i386.rpm db40e37d1931fb4e5830358b37acee5e source rpm: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.1/zq1/apache-1.3.6-53.nosrc.r= pm 8ad785cb5f16456b8540982f1175b0b0 SuSE-6.0 Please use the update packages from the 6.1 directory for SuSE-6.0!

Security Advisory Synopsis: glibc vulnerabilities in ld.so, locale and gettext Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:057-04 Issue date: 2000-09-01 Updated on: 2000-09-07 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: glibc ld.so locale LANG gettext LD_PRELOAD threads Cross references: N/A --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Several bugs were discovered in glibc which could allow local users to gain root privileges. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 5.0 - i386, alpha Red Hat Linux 5.1 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 5.2 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.0 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386, alpha, sparc, sparcv9 Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386, alpha, sparc, sparcv9 3. Problem description: The dynamic linker ld.so uses several environment variables like LD_PRELOAD and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to load additional libraries or modify the library search path. It is unsafe to accept arbitrary user specified values of these variables when executing setuid applications, so ld.so handles them specially in setuid programs and also removes them from the environment. One of the discovered bugs causes these variables not to be removed from the environment under certain circumstances. This does not cause any threat to setuid application themselves, but it could be exploited if a setuid application does not either drop privileges or clean up its environment prior to executing other programs. A number of additional bugs have been found in glibc locale and internationalization security checks. In internationalized programs, users are permitted to select a locale or choose message catalogues using environment variables such as LANG or LC_*. The content of these variables is then used as part of pathnames for searching message catalogues or locale files. Normally, if these variables contain "/" characters, a program can load the internationalization files from arbitrary directories. This is unnacceptable for setuid programs, which is why glibc does not allow certain settings of these variables if the program is setuid or setgid. However, some of these checks were done in inappropriate places, contained bugs or were completely missing. It is highly probable that some of these bugs can be used for local root exploits. The Red Hat Linux 6.x updates also fix a linuxthreads deadlock bug and handling of certain values of the TZ environment variable. The previous version of the 6.x errata introduced some threading problems visible with JDK and Mozilla, the 5.x errata had a bug which caused several localized programs to die with segmentation fault at startup.Both of these problems are fixed with this errata update. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filename] where filename is the name of the RPM. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): 13785 - Bug in pthreads blocks ability to preempt suspend and resume threads on SMP machines 17203 - glibc-2.1.3-19 breaks Sun and IBM Java 1.3 on SMP 17187 - tcsh broken after glibc upgrade 6.

Now Mridul, yes I can wait for some time coz I'd like to get my hands on the Oracle8i. Please drop a line when you do get it. Thanx Anuj, the link you sent was a real gold mine. Mr Palaniappan, Thanks for your offer. I have got Mandrake7.0 for now but I will surely come over someday to give you the trouble! Hope you will not mind. Thanks Jaswinder, I might need something else from you, like FreeBSD. Can I give you a call for that too?

To: linux-delhi@lists.linux-india.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Archive-Number: 200009/136 hi all, I recently posted a call for Oracle & Mandrake to which I also received this: >Nice to hear from you.

You can place the order with us In I wonder if copying something which is distributed freely and which is not going to be used for commercial purposes can/should be called piracy? I am not so sure. The only point I think I need to take care of is that I do not violate the attached license(which I think does not(?) restrict copying). What do you guys think?

Ur mail was a good one - don't know who mailed it to u but doesn't the 'ORACLE partner' know that there is a place called Nehru Place in Delhi where one can get pirated versions of ORACLE for WINDOWS - if they can do nothing to stop it, then why should they try to raise piracy issues on a Linux group... Moreover since it is not for commercial use but for educational purposes, they should not be having any such objections. What I see here is that the 'Partner' is trying to achieve his sales target... And if ORACLE is so prone to stopping piracy, why don't they give out evaluation versions to all Linux User Group Members - so that they can judge the software as well as learn it..... Maybe the rules & regualtions will not allow it but I don't see the harm in loading the software onto their system - more so bcoz the prices are prohibitive- who will shell out 25k when u can get the same thing for 2.5 k....It is their headache how they try to combat piracy & definitely not urs.... And the 'partner' must understand that LUG is a forum for learning & forwarding the moment of LINUX - he shouldnot confuse his loyalty towards his organisation with his becoming a monitoring authority for ORACLE on the LUG..

We were What? I thought there shouldnt have been much ambiguity, since explicit announcements were made about the change of date. The original announcement was made on monday, and revised on the next day.. and the meeting was on saturday. Me thinks thats reasonable enough. Anyhow, i guess Pankaj's final announcement had no details about what day it was finally happening on, so apologies anyway for the goof-up.

No one owns Linux-Delhi, so if you were there, you were Linux-Delhi. Nice meeting, I hope you had.

I live in Sarita Vihar (south delhi) , whats u'r location. Am 21 yrs old and have just started out with linux. I have recently installed Red Hat 6.0. I was trying to create a second user apart from the root. But even after having successfully creating the second user, linux keeps giving me a warning message "Please create a new user as the root will not stop u from corrupting u'r system...." whenever i login as root. Can u help me to get rid of this warning message. By the way what version and distribution of linux are u running.

This makes it possible to construct a document which cause xpdf to run arbitrary commands when the user views an URL. Both problems have been fixed in version 0.90-7, and we recommend you upgrade your xpdf package immediately. wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.

As you are probably aware of by now, India's premier IT event - Bangalore IT.COM 2000, will again have a big Linux Community presence, just as it did last year. Because of the logistics involved, the Bangalore LUG has been requested by the Linux community (the LUGs of India) to represent them at this event. This is a Linux community participation (the BLUG is only a facilitator and executor, just as we were last year). We would like to solicit your LUG's involvement in this event. We have started a separate mailing list for discussing details about IT.COM, for two reasons: - to avoid cluttering up this list or the LIH/LIG lists - to allow other LUGs to participate in the discussions without having to subscribe to the Bangalore list or LIH/LIG. This list is linux-at-itcom@egroups.com and details are at http://www.egroups.com/group/linux-at-itcom Anyone who is interested in being involved in these discussions, please subscribe ASAP. We expect discussions to start sometime tomorrow (Tuesday). The list is public in nature, so everyone can watch the discussions via the web (http://www.egroups.com/messages/linux-at-itcom), but to post, you need to subscribe to it. To keep track of various things (status, proposals, features, accounts, etc.) as well as for providing a place to put digital photos, descriptions, reports, etc., we have started a website http://itcom.linux-india.org There is nothing there yet, but there will be, soon. Suggestions are welcome. We would *really* appreciate it if the members of your LUG would participate both in the discussions as well as (if possible) at the event itself. You advice and suggestions will be what will help us build the Linux Community presence at this event. Please circulate this note on your mailing list so that we can have the involvement of as many people as possible from your LUG. Thanks in advance, and see you in the mailing list and (hopefully) at IT.COM!

Stallman (RMS) and the Free Software Foundation (FSF), especially those aligned with TeX are no doubt allies of the free software movement ignited by RMS. An intense discussion is going on at freedevelopers@topica.com for the formation of a Free Software Company entirely owned by the free developers world wide (we expect 100,000 developers) to safeguard the moral, social and ethical foundations on which FSF was built up, to provide appropriate monetary compensation and quality life to a free software developer he deserves in all the fairness and to fight the merciless commerce of the proprietary software corporates. These being the primary objectives, RMS and Tony Stanco (an associate of RMS, who moderates the list) describe it in the following way: 1. Proprietary code is the enemy. It must be destroyed for developers and the world to be free. Open source is an ally. 2. Developers can be paid salaries and/or stock options to work on free code without violating the core principles of free code. 3. Mergers and acquisitions of proprietary companies are not objectionable in defeating proprietary. 4. A company of free developers, by free developers, for free developers is an acceptable vehicle to achieve the ends of free code. 5. A requirement in the certificate of incorporation that all code owned by the company is licensed under GPL or other tying to FSF is appropriate to ensure that the core principles of free software are observed going forward and to protect from slipping back to proprietary. 6. A democratic, free developer run corporation does not require special safeguards to protect ordinary world citizens. As one of the developing nations, in India where automation has just started, Free Software Company and FSF have plenty of implications. 1. In the first place, our poor economy cant afford to the fancy prices of proprietary software (maybe due to the foriegn exchange conversion magic). 2. Free Software can meet any objective, functionality that is claimed by the proprietary. 3. The huge man power resources generated in each and every place of higher academic learning in this country get a chance to contribute to the free software movement, while he earns a substantially increased income comparable to his counterpart in any proprietary corporate, as an employee of the proposed company. The discussions tend to provide the standard wages in India as in any part of the world. That will surely solve the disturbing problems of migration in many an Indian family. 4. There are plenty of requirement for software in this country for meeting its target of total automation for which each and every government or other agencies stand for today. Free software can meet their objectives on sound moral, ethical and social foundations than any other proprietary corporate. A Case Study: ------------ The Govt. of Kerala has formed an IT mission to automate the 1000 and odd Gram Panchayats of this state. It is a massive and aggressive project to bring details of all the citizens of this state into a huge database, each Panchayat becoming a resource center for the government and at the same time act as the information exchange medium between the public and the government. This is an ideal project for the free software movement. The government have earmarked around Rs. 8 lakhs per Panchayat for using proprietary software and related development as initial investment and Rs. 1.5 lakh as annual recurring expenses. While this came as a proposal, the Linux Users and TeX Users Groups came forward to negotiate with the government to do the project at a cost of Rs. 1 lakh per Panchyat as initial expenses and near nothing as recurring expenses. But we were turned down, just because, we were considered to be a group of free thinkers, whom no responsible government can rely upon. Had there been a corporate entity with FSF objectives to compete with the proprietary agencies, the public exchecquer would have saved millions of rupees, the developers in this or neighbouring states would have got employment. Still the project is not finalized due to the media stir we raised and the seminars of users groups wherein the government nominees were special invitees. To make matters difficult for the government, the Cochin Linux Users Group came up with a viable, stable, functional software model which the political bureaucracy cannot overlook or deny. The final decision was postponed and still lingering. That means we have not lost the race, the global Free Software Company can still fight it out once it is formally incorporated. Tens of thousands of projects are in the offing which we all can undertake. This is the case in many other countries world wide. There are a quite a number of posts in the freedevelopers list similar to this from West European countries. Therefore, if you believe in the non-exploitative future of this land and the world at large and if you believe in the objectives of free software movement, you are always welcome to make the Free Software Company a reality. It requires the developer in you, not for free, but for a standard compensation as in any other proprietary corporate. Why don't you subscribe to the discussions by sending a mail to: freedevelopers-subscribe@topica.com with a word `subscribe' in the subject line? You are not alone, but you are going to meet/associate with some of the greatest minds of this era in this movement. And remember, Free Software Company is going to be the greatest event in the history of Internet and India should have its fare representation and share. Comments are welcome. -- Radhakrishnan --0-1194953865-968734296=:21090-- From linux-delhi-owner@lists.linux-india.org Tue Sep 12 12:05:10 2000 Received: from del1.mantraonline.com (del1.mantraonline.com [202.56.230.1]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 823464A036 for ; Tue, 12 Sep 2000 12:05:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: from vipul ([203.197.231.232]) by del1.mantraonline.com (Netscape Messaging Server 4.1) with SMTP id G0SEZH00.U8R; Tue, 12 Sep 2000 13:50:05 -0500 Message-ID: <001301c01cec$1d2816c0$e8e7c5cb@vipul> Reply-To: "Vipul Mathur" From: "Vipul Mathur" To: Cc: "Linux-Delhi" References: <002001c01bd9$9b50f080$45cdc5cb@vipul><20000911162612.A22953@india.com><000a01c01c17$cfefd200$10cdc5cb@vipul> <14781.41438.97875.619641@localhost.localdomain> Subject: Re: Re: SETI@home Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2000 00:33:10 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 X-Archive-Number: 200009/159 Raju Mathur wrote: > My PIII/550, 512KB cache, 128MB RAM does a work unit in approx. 8 > hours if left undisturbed.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Archive-Number: 200009/163 The August meeting for ILUG-Delhi got unduly delayed this time around, and was finally 'gotten done with' in September :-). The last couple of months have been some kind of a sleepy period in Linux-Delhi, which looks to me like the proverbial 'lull before the storm'. 'The great societification' of ILUG-Delhi is now around the corner, and all other activities seem dormant in waiting for that big bang. The August meeting, or the September meeting, whatever you choose to call it, was a low key affair too, with less attendance, no agenda, but as usual -- lots of fun. Here's what happened. The schedule for the meeting was changed a bit this time, to accomodate Raju, who had a busy schedule for Sunday (which is the usual day for the meetings), and whose presence was important by view of the dopes he was to give on the ILUG-Delhi societification, and the fishy^H^H^H^H^Hconfusing Linux-India societification process. That happened, Raju talked about the Linux-Delhi societification, which is now imminent, subject to a couple more signatures and proof-of-residence documents being furnished. The names of the interim designation holders were announced, which are valid till the first General Body Meeting of ILUG-D. Here they are -- President - Raj Mathur. Vice President - Leo Fernandez Treasurer - Kishore Bhargava General Secretary - Sundeep Holani Secretary - Anand Babu. The Linux-India societification however seems to have run into some rough waters, and not much progress seems to have been made on the closed list that was formed for the city LUG representatives, to discuss the details. Apprehensions about the List being closed, however, were removed by Raju who has been very forthcoming and democratic in discussing the matters in the local forum. Kudos! However, the matter of immediate concern was the upcoming IT.COM in Bangalore, in which Linux-India wished to participate, but had run into some sponsorship issues due to the unofficial status of Linux-India currently. ILUG-Bangalore - pertaining to its being physically closest to the venue of IT.COM, its status as a registered society, and its experience in organising similar activities - has been nominated as Linux-India's representative for the event, this proposal was unanimously approved by Linux-Delhi. Next came the techie section. Supreet Sethi proceeded for a talk on TeX/LaTeX, and aided by inputs from Raju, made one heck of a presentation -- considering that he himself had been introduced to TeX just the day before. Next was Raju's impromptu talk about SANs or Storage Area Networks, for the uninitiated. Turned out to be really informative, but I'd rather skip the details. This was supplemented by a brief talk Anand Babu gave on some related topic, most of which went too technical for comfort. Details omitted ;-). Enough for talking, time for eats. Supreet and Pankaj, the two stars of Linux-Delhi had just got a job at SARAI, and they threw a bash at Nirulas. Turned out to be one of the greatest parties we at Linux-Delhi have had. Cheers for our young lads. Thereafter, the crowd dissipated, and went whereever they wanted to go :-). The end of another of the great Linux-Delhi meetings. Special thanks to the SARAI people, and Supreet and Pankaj for providing the venue and infrastructure, and for helping organise the meeting. On an interesting sidenote, there seemed to be some confusion about the changed schedule of the meeting, and a few people turned up the next day at the venue, too. So that was apparently the September meeting ;-). However, this was a result of some miscommunication between people in charge of organising the meeting, and should be avoided in the future.

Sounds peculiar to me that two units concurrently take the same time as one unit does alone. Try this, and see if it gives you some insight -- 1) Run just one instance of SETI, and see how much processor utilisation 'top' shows. 2) Run two instances of SETI, and now see how much processor is used by each process. If something's fishy... try for three instances, and generalize. 3) Run SETI at nice = -19, see how much processor time is used, and see how much time a workunit takes to be processed. Maybe all this info will tell you something interesting. Also, do you have the latest client? Static or dynamic? Apart from SETI, do you think the rest of the things work at satisfactory speeds? Compiled any kernels lately? How long did that take? -- Sundeep.

X-Archive-Number: 200009/170 Hi there, Just wanted to share a small li'l experience with u guys. I started hating windooze long back - it used to hang whenever I used to take some deadly pangas in C/C++ I shifted over to linux and I got hooked. The other day I went to the cafe to chat with my GF. She cam online on ICQ, and went offline immedeately. Then again it hapenned, and again and again... Later I found out that the new state-of-the-art gizmo she had just bought(700Mhz 128 Kb ram and stuff) was getting hung every time she started ICQ due to the screwed up OS she was using - Windoze 98. I spent a 60 bucks in the Cafe that day waiting for her, and then 70 on the phone sice I was dying to talk to her. Now its personal, this thing against Windoze. Let's hear it everyone - Screw Bill Gates! Let God turn loose a thousand red ants up his pants!

You can choose between Heaven=20 or Hell, but choose wisely.'=20 Bill looks over Saint Peter's shoulder between the=20 pearly gates and sees nothing but a lush green=20 meadow. Deciding to heed Saint Peter's words, Bill=20 asks if he could take a look at Hell. Saint Peter agrees and sends Bill to Hell. The Devil greets Bill at the gates of Hell and he is immediately taken aback. Much to his surprise,=20 there's one heck of a party going on. People are=20 dancing, the alcohol is flowing, music is non-stop=20 and everyone is having a blast. Bill returns to Heaven to again discuss his=20 decision with Saint Peter. He again looks over=20 Saint Peter's shoulder and sees only a lush green=20 meadow. Bill says to Saint Peter, 'I've put a lot of thought into this decision and it may sound=20 foolish, but I'd like to spend the rest of=20 eternity in Hell.' Saint Peter fulfills Bill's=20 request and returns him to Hell. When Bill gets back to Hell there's been a big=20 change.

Vim supports syntax highlighting in the both the console and X versions (gvim) . Your version of vim needs to be compiled with +syntax. On redhat systems, you need the vim-enhanced rpm. Stick the line `syntax on' in your ~/.vimrc file and run `vim' instead of `vi'. Also check out http://www.vim.org/lang.html. They probably got syntax highlighting for everything under the sun. bye :) Anmol From linux-delhi-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Sep 15 11:39:14 2000 Received: from delhi1.mtnl.net.in (delhi1.mtnl.net.in [203.94.243.51]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 984214A1B5 for ; Fri, 15 Sep 2000 11:39:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: from kajaal.dsf by delhi1.mtnl.net.in (8.9.1/1.1.20.3/07Jul00-0916AM) id AAA0000030493; Sat, 16 Sep 2000 00:04:34 +0530 (IST) Received: (qmail 1045 invoked by uid 500); 15 Sep 2000 18:53:22 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 15 Sep 2000 18:53:22 -0000 Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2000 00:23:22 +0530 (IST) From: Sandip Bhattacharya X-Sender: sandipb@kajaal.dsf To: Linux Delhi Mailing List Subject: Re: Smbclient??

GUI install....... 2. Text Based (inc. SCSI supp)....... 3. Recovery (using second floppy disks) Installation Part===> 1. Graphical Install AutoDetected i810 based Graphic Card and ran the installation inGUI mode nice I was happy for that But soon as the custom install is selected and its turn to select the Packages It displays the Packages in diffr. categories as +KDE +GNOME etc... where + can be cahngeg to neg and the packages under that category can be seen easily Here is where the Problem starts A lot of Packages are listed in multiple categories such as netscape is listed atleast in 3 categories and denselecting in doesn't deselect in otehres and now one thinks he has removed the Package but no chance it is there after that Lets Install Ok Install It Hanged no way I tried it three times on machine nothing was able to make that stuff going 2.Text Mode Installation===> Any one who has seen the RedHat 5.2 's instalation(text only at that time) can not tell any difference between the redHat and Best Linux installif he doesn't see the Left Topmost corner of the screen which the different which say Best Linux 2000 isntall instead of RedHat Linux 5.2 install and diff comes at the Package selection time which has a lill more packages than its cousin RedHat(not cousin but real brothers) and after another next and Install the installation was exactly same as that of RedHat But what came to surprise that It was able to start the instation in Graphics mode on i810 chipset now failed to detect the Graphics card or say chipset. Next Gave two options if u have SCSI disk go further and install LILO or if u have ide u can chose from LILO or GRUB after a reboot Start the Linux u installed What came in redHat as ""Welcome to redHat Linux" was changed to ""Welcome to BEST Linux"" and everything in there is same except(may be) the X which I have not yet started but soon I'll do that and post the results some aliases come by default such as ls --color -F -a ======================================== CONCLUSIONS====> Follwing the footsteps of BEST Linux any one with a Basic knowlege how to edit files and little bit scripting capabilities can start his/her own new Distro May be I can Roll out atleast mine with BEST substituted with GodMode everywhere by simply using find and sed pair over the Complete CD and little tweaks here and there ANYONE INTERESTED -- Regards Jaswinder Singh Kohli jskohli@fig.org :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Two things are infinite, the universe and the human stupidity, but I am not yet sure about the universe.

Security Advisory Synopsis: syslog format vulnerability in klogd Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:061-02 Issue date: 2000-09-18 Updated on: 2000-09-18 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: syslog format string klogd syslogd Cross references: N/A --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Various vulnerabilities exist in syslogd/klogd. By exploiting these vulnerabilities, it could be possible for local users to gain root access. No remote exploit exists at this time, but it remains theoretically possible that this vulnerability could be exploited remotely under certain rare circumstances. All users should upgrade to the new sysklogd packages. Users of Red Hat Linux 6.0 and 6.1 should use the packages for Red Hat Linux 6.2. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 5.2 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.0 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386, alpha, sparc 3. Problem description: klogd contains instances of the: syslog( LOG_INFO, buffer ); vulnerability that has been recently been discussed on Bugtraq and similar mailing lists; by supplying some string that contains '%' escapes, it is possible to have those escapes interpreted, which can lead to the ability to gain root access. Also, there are a couple of minor buffer overflow/termination problems that could allow local users to crash syslogd and cause bogus messages to be printed on the local system console.
