-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | EnGarde Secure Linux Security Advisory February 20, 2003 | | http://www.engardelinux.org/ ESA-20030220-004 | | | | Packages: MySQL, MySQL-client, MySQL-shared | | Summary: MySQL double free vulnerability. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ EnGarde Secure Linux is a secure distribution of Linux that features improved access control, host and network intrusion detection, Web based secure remote management, e-commerce, and integrated open source security tools. OVERVIEW - -------- This update fixes a double free() bug in the MySQL daemon that could allow an attacker, with a specially crafted MySQL client, to crash the server. The attacker also requires a valid user account. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0073 to this issue. All users are recommended to upgrade as soon as soon as possible. SOLUTION - -------- Users of the EnGarde Professional edition can use the Guardian Digital Secure Network to update their systems automatically. EnGarde Community users should upgrade to the most recent version as outlined in this advisory. Updates may be obtained from: ftp://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/ http://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/ Before upgrading the package, the machine must either: a) be booted into a "standard" kernel; or b) have LIDS disabled. To disable LIDS, execute the command: # /sbin/lidsadm -S -- -LIDS_GLOBAL To install the updated package, execute the command: # rpm -Uvh files You must now update the LIDS configuration by executing the command: # /usr/sbin/config_lids.pl To re-enable LIDS (if it was disabled), execute the command: # /sbin/lidsadm -S -- +LIDS_GLOBAL To verify the signatures of the updated packages, execute the command: # rpm -Kv files UPDATED PACKAGES - ---------------- These updated packages are for EnGarde Secure Linux Community Edition.
