+OpenPKG-SA-2005.001 11-Jan-2005

+
+Package: perl
+Vulnerability: information disclosure, insecure permissions
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= perl-5.8.6-20041129 >= perl-5.8.6-20050111
+OpenPKG 2.2 <= perl-5.8.5-2.2.0 >= perl-5.8.5-2.2.1
+OpenPKG 2.1 <= perl-5.8.4-2.1.0 >= perl-5.8.4-2.1.1
+
+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Description:
+ Jeroen van Wolffelaar discovered that the rmtree() function in the
+ Perl [0] File::Path module removes directory trees in an insecure
+ manner which could lead to the removal of arbitrary files and
+ directories through a symlink attack. The Common Vulnerabilities and
+ Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2004-0452 [1] to the
+ problem.
+
+ Trustix developers discovered several insecure uses of temporary files
+ in many modules which allow a local attacker to overwrite files via a
+ symlink attack. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project
+ assigned the id CAN-2004-0976 [2] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/openpkg
+ rpm -q perl". If you have the "perl" package installed and its version
+ is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
+ (see Solution) [3][4].
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [4]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.2, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/2.2/UPD
+ ftp> get perl-5.8.5-2.2.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig perl-5.8.5-2.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild perl-5.8.5-2.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/perl-5.8.5-2.2.1.*.rpm
