                    Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Package name:           printer-drivers
    Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2003:010
    Date:                   January 21st, 2003
    
    Affected versions:      8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 9.0
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Problem Description:
    
     Karol Wiesek and iDefense disovered three vulnerabilities in the 
     printer-drivers package and tools it installs.  These vulnerabilities 
     allow a local attacker to empty or create any file on the filesystem.
     
     The first vulnerability is in the mtink binary, which has a buffer 
     overflow in its handling of the HOME environment variable.
     
     The second vulnerability is in the escputil binary, which has a buffer 
     overflow in the parsing of the --printer-name command line argument.  
     This is only possible when esputil is suid or sgid; in Mandrake Linux 
     9.0 it was sgid "sys".  Successful exploitation will provide the 
     attacker with the privilege of the group "sys".
     
     The third vulnerability is in the ml85p binary which contains a race 
     condition in the opening of a temporary file.  By default this file is 
     installed suid root so it can be used to gain root privilege.  The only 
     caveat is that this file is not executable by other, only by root or 
     group "sys".  Using either of the two previous vulnerabilities, an 
     attacker can exploit one of them to obtain "sys" privilege" and then 
     use that to exploit this vulnerability to gain root privilege.
     
     MandrakeSoft encourages all users to upgrade immediately.
     
     Aside from the security vulnerabilities, a number of bugfixes are
     included in this update, for Mandrake Linux 9.0 users.  GIMP-Print 
     4.2.5pre1, HPIJS 1.3, pnm2ppa 1.12, mtink 0.9.53, and a new foomatic 
     snapshot are included.  For a list of the many bugfixes, please refer 
     to the RPM changelog.
