Red Hat: RHSA-2005:069-01 Critical: Perl DBI File Exploit

An updated perl-DBI package that fixes a temporary file flaw in DBI::ProxyServer is now available.. - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Updated perl-DBI package fixes security issue Advisory ID: RHSA-2005:069-01 Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2005:069.html Issue date: 2005-02-01 Updated on: 2005-02-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux CVE Names: CAN-2005-0077 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------1. Summary: An updated perl-DBI package that fixes a temporary file flaw in DBI::ProxyServer is now available. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 - i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux Advanced Workstation 2.1 - ia64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: DBI is a database access Application Programming Interface (API) for the Perl programming language. The Debian Security Audit Project discovered that the DBI library creates a temporary PID file in an insecure manner. A local user could overwrite or create files as a different user who happens to run an application which uses DBI::ProxyServer. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-0077 to this issue. Users should update to this erratum package which disables the temporary PID file unless configured. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat Network to download and update your packages. To launch the RedHat Update Agent, use the following command: up2date For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the following Web page for the System Administration or Customization guide specific to your system: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/10/ 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 145577 - CAN-2005-0077 perl-DBI insecure temporary file usage 6.
