Mageia 7, 8 MGASA-2021-0196 Critical Rcp Manipulation Issue

An issue was discovered in rcp in MIT krb5-appl through 1.0.3. Due to the rcp implementation being derived from 1983 rcp, the server chooses which files/directories are sent to the client. However, the rcp client only performs cursory validation of the object name returned (only directory traversal attacks are prevented). A malicious rcp server (or . MGASA-2021-0196 - Updated krb5-appl packages fix security vulnerabilities Publication date: 23 Apr 2021 URL: https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2021-0196.html Type: security Affected Mageia releases: 7, 8 CVE: CVE-2019-25017, CVE-2019-25018 An issue was discovered in rcp in MIT krb5-appl through 1.0.3. Due to the rcp implementation being derived from 1983 rcp, the server chooses which files/directories are sent to the client. However, the rcp client only performs cursory validation of the object name returned (only directory traversal attacks are prevented). A malicious rcp server (or Man-in-The-Middle attacker) can overwrite arbitrary files in the rcp client target directory. If recursive operation (-r) is performed, the server can manipulate subdirectories as well (for example, to overwrite the .ssh/authorized_keys file). This issue is similar to CVE-2019-6111 and CVE-2019-7283 (CVE-2019-25017). In the rcp client in MIT krb5-appl through 1.0.3 malicious servers could bypass intended access restrictions via the filename of . or an empty filename, similar to CVE-2018-20685 and CVE-2019-7282. The impact is modifying the permissions of the target directory on the client side (CVE-2019-25018).

Scientific Linux: SLSA-2014:0311-1 Critical: PHP Buffer Overflow

Critical: php security update. Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2014 13:45:11 +0000 Reply-To: scientific-linux-users@ Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Pat Riehecky Subject: Security ERRATA Critical: php on SL5.x i386/x86_64 MIME-Version: 1.0 Synopsis: Critical: php security update Advisory ID: SLSA-2014:0311-1 Issue Date: 2014-03-18 CVE Numbers: CVE-2006-7243 CVE-2009-0689 -- A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way PHP parsed floating point numbers from their text representation. If a PHP application converted untrusted input strings to numbers, an attacker able to provide such input could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application. (CVE-2009-0689) It was found that PHP did not properly handle file names with a NULL character. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make a PHP script access unexpected files and bypass intended file system access restrictions. (CVE-2006-7243) After installing the updated packages, the httpd daemon must be restarted for the update to take effect. -- SL5 x86_64 php-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-bcmath-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-cli-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-common-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-dba-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-debuginfo-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-devel-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-gd-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-imap-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-ldap-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-mbstring-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-mysql-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-ncurses-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-odbc-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-pdo-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-pgsql-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-snmp-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-soap-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-xml-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm php-xmlrpc-5.1.6-44.el5_10.x86_64.rpm i386 php-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-bcmath-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-cli-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-common-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-dba-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-debuginfo-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-devel-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-gd-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-imap-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-ldap-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-mbstring-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-mysql-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-ncurses-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-odbc-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-pdo-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-pgsql-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-snmp-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-soap-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-xml-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm php-xmlrpc-5.1.6-44.el5_10.i386.rpm - Scientific Linux Development Team .
