From: Mike Lykov <combr@vesna.ru> To: community@altlinux.ru Subject: [Comm] ошибка в /bin/mail - buffer overrun Date: Wed, 4 Jun 2003 08:57:06 +0500 Message-ID: <200306040857.06543.combr@vesna.ru> (raw) http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/7760/discussion/ A vulnerability has been discovered in the Linux /bin/mail utility. The problem occurs when processing excessive data within the carbon copy field. Due to insufficient bounds checking while parsing this information it may be possible to trigger a buffer overrun. An attacker could exploit this issue to execute arbitrary commands. It should be noted that local exploitation may be inconsequential, however a malicious e-mail message or CGI interface could be a sufficient conduit for remote exploitation. -- vulnerable RedHat Linux 9.0 i386 Slackware Linux 8.1 not vulnerable Slackware Linux 9.0 А как насчет ALT Linux ? -- Mike
