Package : lemonldap-ng Version : 1.9.7-3+deb9u1 CVE ID : CVE-2019-12046 Debian Bug : 928944 An attack vector was discovered by the lemonldap-ng developers. When the SAML or CAS service provider is enabled and the administrator has chosen to store the SAML/CAS tokens in the session database, an attacker can open an anonymous session to connect to any protected application that does not have specific access rules. For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.7-3+deb9u1. We recommend that you upgrade your lemonldap-ng packages.

Scientific Linux 5: Security Advisory for nfs-utils Low Risk Access Issue

Low: nfs-utils security and bug fix update. Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2009 15:42:29 -0600 Reply-To: Troy Dawson Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Troy Dawson Subject: Security ERRATA Low: nfs-utils on SL5.x i386/x86_64 Comments: To: "This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it." Synopsis: Low: nfs-utils security and bug fix update Issue date: 2009-09-02 CVE Names: CVE-2008-4552 It was discovered that nfs-utils did not use tcp_wrappers correctly. Certain hosts access rules defined in "/etc/hosts.allow" and "/etc/hosts.deny" may not have been honored, possibly allowing remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. (CVE-2008-4552) This updated package also fixes the following bugs: * the "LOCKD_TCPPORT" and "LOCKD_UDPPORT" options in "/etc/sysconfig/nfs" were not honored: the lockd daemon continued to use random ports. With this update, these options are honored. (BZ#434795) * it was not possible to mount NFS file systems from a system that has the "/etc/" directory mounted on a read-only file system (this could occur on systems with an NFS-mounted root file system). With this update, it is possible to mount NFS file systems from a system that has "/etc/" mounted on a read-only file system. (BZ#450646) * arguments specified by "STATDARG=" in "/etc/sysconfig/nfs" were removed by the nfslock init script, meaning the arguments specified were never passed to rpc.statd. With this update, the nfslock init script no longer removes these arguments. (BZ#459591) * when mounting an NFS file system from a host not specified in the NFS server's "/etc/exports" file, a misleading "unknown host" error was logged on the server (the hostname lookup did not fail). With this update, a clearer error message is provided for these situations. (BZ#463578) * the nhfsstone benchmark utility did not work with NFS version 3 and 4. This update adds support to nhfsstone for NFS version 3 and 4. The new nhfsstone "-2", "-3", and "-4" options are used to select an NFS version (similar to nfsstat(8)). (BZ#465933) * theexportfs(8) manual page contained a spelling mistake, "djando", in the EXAMPLES section. (BZ#474848) * in some situations the NFS server incorrectly refused mounts to hosts that had a host alias in a NIS netgroup. (BZ#478952) * in some situations the NFS client used its cache, rather than using the latest version of a file or directory from a given export. This update adds a new mount option, "lookupcache=", which allows the NFS client to control how it caches files and directories. Note: The Scientific Linux 2.6.18-164 or later kernel update must be installed in order to use the "lookupcache=" option. Also, "lookupcache=" is currently only available for NFS version 3. Support for NFS version 4 may be introduced in future Scientific Linux 5 updates. (BZ#489335) After installing this update, the nfs service will be restarted automatically. Note: This update is already in SL 5.4 SL 5.x SRPMS: nfs-utils-1.0.9-42.el5.src.rpm i386: nfs-utils-1.0.9-42.el5.i386.rpm nfs-utils-lib-1.0.8-7.6.el5.i386.rpm nfs-utils-lib-devel-1.0.8-7.6.el5.i386.rpm x86_64: nfs-utils-1.0.9-42.el5.x86_64.rpm nfs-utils-lib-1.0.8-7.6.el5.i386.rpm nfs-utils-lib-1.0.8-7.6.el5.x86_64.rpm nfs-utils-lib-devel-1.0.8-7.6.el5.i386.rpm nfs-utils-lib-devel-1.0.8-7.6.el5.x86_64.rpm -Connie Sieh -Troy Dawson .
