                    Linux-Mandrake Security Update Advisory
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Package name:           hylafax
    Date:                   April 24th, 2001
    Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2001:041
    
    Affected versions:      7.1, 7.2, Corporate Server 1.0.1
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Problem Description:
    
     A problem exists with the HylaFAX program, hfaxd.  When hfaxd tries to
     change it's queue directory and fails, it prints an error message via
     syslog by directly passing user supplied data as the format string.  If
     hfaxd is installed setuid root, this behaviour can be exploited to gain
     root access locally.  Note that Linux-Mandrake does not ship hfaxd
     setuid root by default.

    Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
    the downloaded package.  You can do this with the command:
      rpm --checksig package.rpm
    You can get the GPG public key of the Linux-Mandrake Security Team at
      http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS
    If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG
    signature is performed automatically for you.

    To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.
    
    If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
    of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".
    
    You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites
    listed at:
    
      http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3.
    
    Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory.
    For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for
    Linux-Mandrake 8.0, look for it in "updates/8.0/RPMS/".  Updated source
    RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download
    them.
    
    Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
    update.
