===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Important: dnsmasq security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2009:1238-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-1238.html Issue date: 2009-08-31 CVE Names: CVE-2009-2957 CVE-2009-2958 =====================================================================
1. Summary:
An updated dnsmasq package that fixes two security issues is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64
3. Description:
Dnsmasq is a lightweight and easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP server.
Core Security Technologies discovered a heap overflow flaw in dnsmasq when the TFTP service is enabled (the "--enable-tftp" command line option, or by enabling "enable-tftp" in "/etc/dnsmasq.conf"). If the configured tftp-root is sufficiently long, and a remote user sends a request that sends a long file name, dnsmasq could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the dnsmasq service (usually the unprivileged "nobody" user). (CVE-2009-2957)
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was discovered in dnsmasq when the TFTP service is enabled. This flaw could allow a malicious TFTP client to crash the dnsmasq service. (CVE-2009-2958)
Note: The default tftp-root is "/var/ftpd", which is short enough to make it difficult to exploit the CVE-2009-2957 issue; if a longer directory name is used, arbitrary code execution may be possible. As well, the dnsmasq package distributed by Red Hat does not have TFTP support enabled by default.
All users of dnsmasq should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to correct these issues. After installing the updated package, the dnsmasq service must be restarted for the update to take effect.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259
5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
519020 - CVE-2009-2957, CVE-2009-2958 dnsmasq: multiple vulnerabilities in TFTP server
