- --- Issue Specifics ---
- -----------------------
It has been reported that there are multiple security vulnerabilities
in rpc.mountd effecting IRIX 6.5.18 through 6.5.22.
- users can probe the sgi_mountd RPC service for the presence or
absence of any file on the system. (CAN-1999-1225)
- under certain conditions rpc.mountd would allow mount requests from
unprivileged ports even if running without -n option. (CAN-2003-0796)
- rpc.mountd could be made to die remotely, effecting temporary DoS
against NFS services. (CAN-2003-0797)
SGI has investigated the issue and recommends the following steps for
neutralizing the exposure. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that these measures
be implemented on ALL vulnerable SGI systems. This issue has been
corrected in future releases of IRIX.
- --------------
- --- Impact ---
- --------------
To determine the version of IRIX you are running, execute the following
command:
# /bin/uname -R
That will return a result similar to the following:
# 6.5 6.5.21f
The first number ("6.5") is the release name, the second ("6.5.21f" in
this case) is the extended release name. The extended release name
is the "version" we refer to throughout this document.
- ----------------
- --- Solution ---
- ----------------
SGI has provided a series of patches for these vulnerabilities. Our
recommendation is to upgrade to IRIX 6.5.23, or install the appropriate
patches.
