-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ______________________________________________________________________________ SuSE Security Announcement Package: cups Announcement-ID: SuSE-SA:2003:028 Date: Fri Jun 6 16:00:00 MEST 2003 Affected products: 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 SuSE Linux Desktop 1.0 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 UnitedLinux 1.0 Vulnerability Type: remote Denial of Service Severity (1-10): 3 SuSE default package: since SuSE Linux 8.1 Cross References: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L75 CAN-2003-0195 Content of this advisory: 1) security vulnerability resolved: Remote Denial of Service attack. problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information 2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds: - snort - apache-contrib/mod_gzip - pptpd - syslogd 3) standard appendix (further information) ______________________________________________________________________________ 1) problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information The well known Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) was found vulnerable to a remote Denial of Service attack. The CUPS daemon will stop serving clients if the second carriage return in a request is not sent to complete the header. Since the vulnerability occurs before any authorization or address verification there is no other workaround than shutting down the CUPS server. To be sure the update takes effect you have to restart the CUPS daemon by executing the following command as root: "rccups try-restart" Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement. Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply the update. Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages are being offered to install from the maintenance web. i386 Intel Platform: SuSE-8.2: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.2/rpm/i586/cups-1.1.18-77.i586.rpm

______________________________________________________________________________ 2) Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds: - snort A overflow in the stream4 preprocessor has been fixed in the new snort packages which will be available soon on our ftp servers. - apache-contrib/mod_gzip If the mod_gzip module for apache is compiled with enabled debug mode three security vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely and localy. SuSE Linux does not ship mod_gzip with this option enabled. The three bugs will be fixed in future versions of SuSE Linux. - pptpd A buffer overflow was found in the PPTP daemon. New packages will soon be available on our ftp servers. We will inform you in a separate advisory when the pptpd packages are available. - syslogd Dirk Mueller reported a problem to SuSE Security that syslogd fails to write to a logfile if file size (u)limits set by the administrator are being exceeded. We recommend that administrators carefully choose which services might fail if ulimits are set for processes that run as root. If an administrator decides to use an additional logfile, then she should make sure that this logfile is stated in a configuration file in /etc/logrotate.d (or /etc/logfiles in older SuSE Linux releases). ______________________________________________________________________________ 3) standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information - Package authenticity verification: SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing the package. There are two verification methods that can be used independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or rpm package: 1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement. 2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package. 1) execute the command md5sum |
