Background ========= Analog is a a webserver log analyzer. Affected packages ================ ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-admin/analog < 6.0-r2 > = 6.0-r2 Description ========== Diego E. Petteno reported that the Analog package in Gentoo is built with its own copy of bzip2, making it vulnerable to CVE-2008-1372 (GLSA 200804-02).

security advisorydenial of serviceRed Hat PowertoolsRed Hat Powertools RHSA-2002:059-13 Critical: Analog Cross-Site Scripting
Updated packages for analog are available which fix a cross-site scripting problem and a denial of service problem.. ` --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Updated analog packages are available Advisory ID: RHSA-2002:059-13 Issue date: 2002-04-09 Updated on: 2002-09-26 Product: Red Hat Powertools Keywords: analog cross-site scripting Cross references: Obsoletes: CVE Names: CVE-2002-0166 CAN-2002-1154 --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated packages for analog are available which fix a cross-site scripting problem and a denial of service problem. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Powertools 7.1 - alpha, i386 3. Problem description: Analog is a web server logfile analysis program. Yuji Takahashi discovered a bug in analog versions prior to 5.2.2 which allows a cross-site scripting attack when an attacker can insert arbitrary strings into a web server logfile. Analog then performs an analysis on all strings in the logfile and reports it. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability, for example, by introducing arbitrary Javascript code into an analog report produced by one user and read by a third person. Additionally a problem was discovered in the optional CGI front end form interface to analog, anlgform.pl in versions prior to 5.23. An attacker who has access to this program could cause the web server error log to fill. All users of analog are advised to upgrade to the errata packages containing analog version 5.24 which is not affected by these vulnerabilities. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currentlyinstalled will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5. RPMs required: Red Hat Powertools 7.1: SRPMS: alpha: i386: 6. Verification: MD5 sum Package Name -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5e816ff01a41d588178e2971d1fb12a6 7.1/en/powertools/SRPMS/analog-5.24-1.src.rpm b01876dce46ed92c8e5177eddef31a48 7.1/en/powertools/alpha/analog-5.24-1.alpha.rpm 015d4ea8f3bf01d441f7a3d10e9c7840 7.1/en/powertools/alpha/analog-form-5.24-1.alpha.rpm 0218cfd9eef61f3a3025dd934801be07 7.1/en/powertools/i386/analog-5.24-1.i386.rpm 70175466a734180b76ad056e83924a79 7.1/en/powertools/i386/analog-form-5.24-1.i386.rpm These packages are GPG signed by Red Hat, Inc. for security. Our key is available at: About You can verify each package with the following command: rpm --checksig If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command: rpm --checksig --nogpg 7.
