Fedora: Critical Update 2005-435 Fixes Ncpfs Getuid Vulnerabilities

fedora
Calendar Grey August 18, 2005
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora Core 3 has released updates for ncpfs addressing numerous vulnerabilities, rectifying getuid errors, and improving filesystem efficiency.
Updated package.

Summary

Ncpfs is a filesystem which understands the Novell NetWare(TM) NCP

protocol. Functionally, NCP is used for NetWare the way NFS is used

in the TCP/IP world. For a Linux system to mount a NetWare

filesystem, it needs a special mount program. The ncpfs package

contains such a mount program plus other tools for configuring and

using the ncpfs filesystem.

Install the ncpfs package if you need to use the ncpfs filesystem

to use Novell NetWare files or services.
