Debian Security Advisory DSA 050-1 securityat_private
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
April 20, 2001
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : sendfile
Vulnerability : broken privileges dropping, broken tempfile
Type : local root exploit
Debian-specific: no
Colin Phipps and Daniel Kobras discovered and fixed several serious
bugs in the saft daemon `sendfiled' which caused it to drop privileges
incorrectly. Exploiting this a local user can easily make it execute
arbitrary code under root privileges.
We recommend you upgrade your sendfile packages immediately.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato
- ------------------------------------
Potato was released for the alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc
architectures.
