1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information
The text editor vim, Vi IMproved, was found vulnerable to two security
bugs.
1.) a tmp race condition
2.) vim commands in regular files will be executed if the status line
of vim is enabled in vimrc
Both vulnerabilities could be used to gain unauthorized access to more
privileges.
Download the update package from locations desribed below and install
the package with the command `rpm -Uhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
files using the command
`rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
independently from the md5 signatures below.

2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:
- We are in the process of preparing update packages for the man package
which has been found vulnerable to a commandline format string bug.
The man command is installed suid man on SuSE systems. When exploited,
the bug can be used to install a different man binary to introduce a
trojan into the system. As an interim workaround, we recommend to
`chmod -s /usr/bin/manŽ and ignore the warnings and errors when
viewing manpages.
- A bufferoverflow in sudo was discovered and fixed RPMs will be
available as soon as possible. A exploit was not made public until
now.
- NEdit a GUI-style text editor needs an update due to a tmp race
condition. The source code is currently being reviewed and new
RPMs will be available within the next days.
