Turbolinux Security Announcement
Package: gtk+ Vulnerable Packages: All Turbolinux versions previous to 1.2.8-6 Date: 06/06/2001 5:00 PDT
Affected Turbolinux platforms: TL 6.1 Workstation, All Turbolinux versions 6.0.5 and earlier
Turbolinux Advisory ID#: TLSA2001026
References: http://www.securityfocus.com/vdb/bottom.html?vid=2165
___________________________________________________________________________
A security hole has been discovered in the package gtk+. Please update this package in your installation as soon as possible. ___________________________________________________________________________
1. Problem Summary The environment variable GTK_MODULES allows a local user to enter a directory path to a module that may not be associated with the GTK+ tool- kit. Hence, an attacker can create a custom module and load it using the toolkit.
2. Impact
An attacker can elevate his privileges, overwrite system files and execute potentially harmful code. 3. Solution
Update the package from our ftp server by running the following command:
rpm -Uvh ftp_path_to_filename
Where ftp_path_to_filename is the following:
ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/gtk+-1.2.8-10.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/security/gtk+-devel-1.2.8-10.i386.rpm
The source RPM can be downloaded here:
ftp://ftp.turbolinux.com/pub/updates/6.0/SRPMS/gtk+-1.2.8-10.src.rpm
**Note: You must rebuild and install the RPM if you choose to download and install the SRPM. Simply installing the SRPM alone WILL NOT CLOSE THE SECURITY HOLE.
In order to rebuild the gtk+ binaries from the SRPM, be sure you have XFree86-devel, glib(v1.2.8 or greater), and glib-devel(v1.2.8 or greater) installed on your system.
Please verify the MD5 checksums of the updates before you install:
MD5 sum Package Name ___________________________________________________________________________
b0c2d5dc77ba3ecb3cd2d9d11848acd9 gtk+-1.2.8-10.i386.rpm 9bdc5579224c5cbe0ed139d0db39279c gtk+-devel-1.2.8-10.i386.rpm eb8464e01901535828848c5ea66f5c65 gtk+-1.2.8-10.src.rpm ___________________________________________________________________________
These packages are GPG signed by Turbolinux for security. Our key is available here:
http://www.turbolinux.com/security/tlgpgkey.asc
To verify a package, use the following command:
rpm --checksig name_of_rpm
To examine only the md5sum, use the following command:
md5sum name_of_rpm
**Note: Checking GPG keys requires RPM 3.0 or higher.
