GENTOO LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 200210-013
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------
PACKAGE : pam_ldap
SUMMARY═: format string attack
DATE ══ : 2002-10-30 22:10 UTC
EXPLOIT : local
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------
Versions 143 and earlier of the pam_ldap module are vulnerable to a
format string attack. A local attacker could supply a malicious
format string when opening a configuration file, which could allow
the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated
privileges.
SOLUTION
It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running
net-libs/pam_ldap-134-r1 and earlier update their systems as follows:
emerge rsync
emerge pam_ldap
emerge clean
