Subject:      Security ERRATA for aide on SL5.x i386/x86_64
Comments: To: scientific-linux-errata@fnal.gov

Synopsis:	Moderate: aide security update
Issue date:	2007-09-04
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-3849

A flaw was discovered in the way file checksums were stored in the AIDE
database. A packaging flaw in the Red Hat AIDE rpm resulted in the file
database not containing any file checksum information. This could prevent
AIDE from detecting certain file modifications. (CVE-2007-3849)

This update also fixes the following bugs:

* certain configurations could result in a segmentation fault upon
initialization.

* AIDE was unable to open its log file in the LSPP evaluated configuration.

* if AIDE found SELinux context differences, the changed files report it
generated only included the first 32 characters of the context.

SL 5.x
