                    Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Package name:           dhcp
    Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2002:037-1
    Date:                   May 30th, 2002
    Original Advisory Date: May 29th, 2002
    Affected versions:      Single Network Firewall 7.2
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Problem Description:
    
     Fermin J. Serna discovered a problem in the dhcp server and client
     package from versions 3.0 to 3.0.1rc8, which are affected by a format
     string vulnerability that can be exploited remotely.  By default, these
     versions of DHCP are compiled with the dns update feature enabled,
     which allows DHCP to update DNS records.  The code that logs this
     update has an exploitable format string vulnerability; the update 
     message can contain data provided by the attacker, such as a hostname.
     A successful exploitation could give the attacker elevated privileges
     equivalent to the user running the DHCP daemon, which is the user dhcpd
     in Mandrake Linux 8.x, but root in earlier versions.
    
    Update:
    
     The packages previously provided for SNF7.2 were the incorrect version.
     These new packages provide the proper version of dhcpd for SNF7.2.
