            Package:                cups
            Announcement-ID:        SuSE-SA:2002:005
            Date:                   Saturday, Feb 23st 2002 09:10 MET
            Affected SuSE versions: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3
            Vulnerability Type:     remote privilege escalation
            Severity (1-10):        5
            SuSE default package:   no
            Other affected systems: all systems running CUPS
    
        Content of this advisory:
            1) security vulnerability resolved: CUPS bufferoverflow in IPP
               problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
            2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
            3) standard appendix (further information)
    
    ______________________________________________________________________________
    
    1)  problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
    
        The well known Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) was found vulnerable
        to a buffer overflow in the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) handling
        code.
        The buffer overflow could be exploited by a remote attacker as long as
        their IP address is allowed to connect to the CUPS server.
    
        Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its
        integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement.
        Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply
        the update.
    
        After updateing the packages run "rclpd restart" as root to start the
        new daemon.

    2)  Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
    
        - squid
          A heap overflow in squid's URL constructing functions is fixed and
          new packages are currently being built.
    
        - ucd-snmpd
          The UCD snmpd contains various security releated bugs.
          We are currently reviewing the code and available fixes to ensure
          they all get fixed. Patches will be available as soon as possible.
          It is strongly recommended to filter SNMP (TCP and UDP packets
          with destination of port 161) traffic.
    
        - hanterm/wmtv
          The recently reported vulnerabilities in hanterm and wmtv do not
          affect SuSE installations because they are not installed setuid
          or setgid.
    
        - cipe
          We are about to prepare kernel update packages that fix a DoS
          problem in the kernel modules for the cipe encrypted tunneling
          software.
    
    ______________________________________________________________________________
    
    3)  standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information
    
      - Package authenticity verification:
    
        SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over
        the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important
        to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be
        sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing
        the package. There are two verification methods that can be used
        independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded
        file or rpm package:
        1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement.
        2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package.
    
        1) execute the command
            md5sum <name-of-the-file.rpm>
           after you downloaded the file from a SuSE ftp server or its mirrors.
           Then, compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the
           announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is
           cryptographically signed (usually using the key securityat_private),
           the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package.
           We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the
           email message containing the announcement to be modified so that
           the signature does not match after transport through the mailing
           list software.
           Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the
           announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt
           and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all
           md5 sums for the files are useless.
    
        2) rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity
           of an rpm package. Use the command
            rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>
           to verify the signature of the package, where <file.rpm> is the
           filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course,
           package authenticity verification can only target an uninstalled rpm
           package file.
           Prerequisites:
            a) gpg is installed
            b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this
               key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory
               ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the
               signature verification (usually root). You can import the key
               that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving
               this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and
               running the command (do "su -" to be root):
                gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import
               SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the
               key "buildat_private" upon installation or upgrade, provided that
               the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key
               is placed at the toplevel directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg)
               and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de .
    
    
      - SuSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may
        subscribe:
    
        suse-securityat_private
            -   general/linux/SuSE security discussion.
                All SuSE security announcements are sent to this list.
                To subscribe, send an email to
                    <suse-security-subscribeat_private>.
    
        suse-security-announceat_private
            -   SuSE's announce-only mailing list.
                Only SuSE's security annoucements are sent to this list.
                To subscribe, send an email to
                    <suse-security-announce-subscribeat_private>.
    
        For general information or the frequently asked questions (faq)
        send mail to:
            <suse-security-infoat_private> or
            <suse-security-faqat_private> respectively.
