(moderator, please post this instead of the previous message). I found a coredump in tracepath, which is part of the iputils package. I've tested this on RH 7.1 and 7.2, which both use the same version (from the iputils-20001110-1 rpm). [jon@devotchka jon]$ tracepath -n Segmentation fault (core dumped) [jon@devotchka jon]$ which tracepath /usr/sbin/tracepath [jon@devotchka jon]$ ls -la /usr/sbin/tracepath -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7036 Jan 16 2001 /usr/sbin/tracepath Tracepath isn't setuid root in any distro i could find, so i figured that there's no harm in releasing this. But according to the manpage: "GENERAL NOTE: all these applets, except for tracepath[6] should be excecutabel only with CAP_NET_RAWIO capability. To all that I know, they are safe to be used as setuid root." If you have this installed (and I don't know of a distro that doesn't), make sure the setuid bit is turned off. I emailed the author, and he replied that this had been fixed in the current tree: "This has been fixed in later version. To all that I remember, it is: (from RELNOTES) [011002] * Stepan Koltsov <yozhat_private>, tracepath/tracepth6 segfaulted when used without address." -jon -- jonat_private || www.divisionbyzero.com gpg key: www.divisionbyzero.com/pubkey.asc think i have a virus?: www.divisionbyzero.com/pgp.html "You are in a twisty little maze of Sendmail rules, all confusing."
