SuSE: Makewhatis Not Vulnerable To /tmp Race Condition Bug

makewhatis from man package reported to not be vulnerable to /tmp race condition bug.. From: Thomas Biege Subject: [suse-security-announce] makewhatis bug Hi, a few days ago a /tmp race condition bug in the makewhatis program was posted on bugtraq. We are NOT vulnerable by this bug, because we use different code, which doesn't touch /tmp in a unsecure way.

Debian Linux: DSA-2021:112-01 Important: Bash Security Vulnerability

The makewhatis portion of the man package used files in /tmp in an insecure fashion.. ` --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory Synopsis: man package's 'makewhatis' uses insecure handling of files in /tmp Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:041-02 Issue date: 2000-07-03 Updated on: 2000-07-03 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: man /tmp makewhatis Cross references: N/A --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: The makewhatis portion of the man package used files in /tmp in an insecure fashion. It was possible for local users to exploit this vulnerability to modify files that they normally could not and gain elevated privilege. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 5.2 - i386 alpha sparc Red Hat Linux 6.0 - alpha i386 sparc Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386 alpha sparc Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha i386 sparc 3. Problem description: The makewhatis script creates files in /tmp with predictable names. By using various symlink attacks, it is possible to have the makewhatis script write to files it should not, change the permissions of various files, etc. It is recommended that users of Red Hat Linux upgrade to the fixed packages. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filename] where filename is the name of the RPM. 5. Bug IDs fixed ( for more info): N/A 6. RPMs required: Red Hat Linux 5.2: i386: alpha: sparc: sources: Red Hat Linux 6.2: alpha: i386: sparc: sources: 7.
