--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Legacy Test Update Notification FEDORALEGACY-2006-186277 Bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=186277 2006-03-22 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : sendmail Versions : rh73: sendmail-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy Versions : rh9: sendmail-8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy Versions : fc1: sendmail-8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy Versions : fc2: sendmail-8.12.11-4.26.legacy Versions : fc3: sendmail-8.13.1-3.legacy Summary : A widely used Mail Transport Agent (MTA). Description : The Sendmail program is a very widely used Mail Transport Agent (MTA). MTAs send mail from one machine to another. Sendmail is not a client program, which you use to read your email. Sendmail is a behind-the-scenes program which actually moves your email over networks or the Internet to where you want it to go. If you ever need to reconfigure Sendmail, you will also need to have the sendmail.cf package installed. If you need documentation on Sendmail, you can install the sendmail-doc package. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: An updated tar package that fixes a flaw in the handling of asynchronous signals. A flaw in the handling of asynchronous signals was discovered in Sendmail. A remote attacker may be able to exploit a race condition to execute arbitrary code as root. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2006-0058 to this issue. By default on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 and later, Sendmail is configured to only accept connections from the local host. Therefore only users who have configured Sendmail to listen to remote hosts would be able to be remotely exploited by this vulnerability. In order to correct this issue for RHL 7.3 users, it was necessary to upgrade the version of Sendmail from 8.11 as originally shipped to Sendmail 8.12.11 with the addition of the security patch supplied by Sendmail Inc. This erratum provides updated packages based on Sendmail 8.12 with a compatibility mode enabled as provided by Red Hat for RHEL 2.1. After updating to these packages, users should pay close attention to their sendmail logs to ensure that the upgrade completed sucessfully. In order to correct this issue for RHL 9 and FC1 users, it was necessary to upgrade the version of Sendmail from 8.12.8 and 8.12.10 respectively to 8.12.11 with the addition of the security patch supplied by Sendmail Inc. After updating to these packages, users should pay close attention to their sendmail logs to ensure that the upgrade completed sucessfully. For Fedora Core 3 users, the patch supplied by Sendmail Inc. applies cleanly to the latest sendmail package previously released for Fedora Core 3. Users of Sendmail should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a replacement backported patch to correct this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Changelogs rh73: * Wed Mar 22 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy - Sourced in for RHL7.3 - Added groff buildreq rh9: * Wed Mar 22 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating@xxxxxxxxxx> - 8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy - fixed VU#834865 (#186277) - disable -fpie - enable old_setup - Add BuildReq gdbm-devel - Use sasl1 fc1: * Wed Mar 22 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating@xxxxxxxxxx> - 8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy - fixed VU#834865 (#186277) - enable old_setup fc2: * Wed Mar 22 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating@xxxxxxxxxx> - 8.12.11-4.26.legacy - fixed VU#834865 (#186277) fc3: * Wed Mar 22 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 8.13.1-3.legacy - fixed VU#834865 (#186277) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedoralegacy.org/ (sha1sums) rh73: d9c001d8a34f11f528ff6be2a9f8dd15818caf40 redhat/7.3/updates-testing/SRPMS/sendmail-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy.src.rpm 80f02c886b020e6d6ef17389c22c8b530fb05a48 redhat/7.3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy.i386.rpm 285816881a55fe4b8a74fee48205c8ceedaee5e5 redhat/7.3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-cf-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy.i386.rpm b4154a342e7747d980b7acaf352649ddc1dcc40d redhat/7.3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-devel-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy.i386.rpm 81a36048a12cc5c08a8e93490dde6817c402ae54 redhat/7.3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-doc-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy.i386.rpm rh9: 272bbff91a52692991f6f0fd434a27fda1c92057 redhat/9/updates-testing/SRPMS/sendmail-8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy.src.rpm 683d48df1c5aabb1e9768d4bfb37036d0d7ff7c6 redhat/9/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy.i386.rpm a6e967294f6cbe9f623e5626e20e33fbbc410f68 redhat/9/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-cf-8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy.i386.rpm da996e582bb27144c7c26050e0ba51ce7cb727d7 redhat/9/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-devel-8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy.i386.rpm 8d03dc1dd178543cb9d9050198774b599967bfcd redhat/9/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-doc-8.12.11-4.24.1.legacy.i386.rpm fc1: c33698f4e499d477d9712de3d6061825348a294f fedora/1/updates-testing/SRPMS/sendmail-8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy.src.rpm df880ab03eaeb2f82be81bee96c28392984a4b86 fedora/1/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy.i386.rpm 729bcaeb1269b65728f014bbbedb5c1a54a5158e fedora/1/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-cf-8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy.i386.rpm 256ff91b67ecc7680a5f2fb97b3b32142bb80d18 fedora/1/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-devel-8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy.i386.rpm 65725c811c4c7eede9f88c006a13c15e458d353f fedora/1/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-doc-8.12.11-4.25.1.legacy.i386.rpm fc2: 65086d18cb29e02b57ce07b6abf79ba378ae1c3c fedora/2/updates-testing/SRPMS/sendmail-8.12.11-4.26.legacy.src.rpm 7e44b02696338832e2dfc0057aeb58c98511d0d2 fedora/2/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-8.12.11-4.26.legacy.i386.rpm d159f0c92bd530799b75341d18b5b2cbe5aa5a0a fedora/2/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-cf-8.12.11-4.26.legacy.i386.rpm 8421bfb2eb2f2b3fddb35e905fdcfecd0fb8088c fedora/2/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-devel-8.12.11-4.26.legacy.i386.rpm b659d2733afa3d6f4df840a395c6eae3a5c07d50 fedora/2/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-doc-8.12.11-4.26.legacy.i386.rpm fc3: fbfba64eac81e57ae098f967b7d3bf4e47e04c87 fedora/3/updates-testing/SRPMS/sendmail-8.13.1-3.legacy.src.rpm 6cc0f44ad32c0eb62801331bf8bfa41625b61031 fedora/3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-8.13.1-3.legacy.i386.rpm 04bd02d3f731eb985d6e8b9fde7ee3ddc5bdccfe fedora/3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-cf-8.13.1-3.legacy.i386.rpm 97f173fa48f847feb5051bc2cb4686f53e3895ac fedora/3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-devel-8.13.1-3.legacy.i386.rpm 298c0908052efdbc671dda1f22f025f96a10d770 fedora/3/updates-testing/i386/sendmail-doc-8.13.1-3.legacy.i386.rpm 162a1e21ac33e5a9072f7cb9934d17523d8160f6 fedora/3/updates-testing/x86_64/sendmail-8.13.1-3.legacy.x86_64.rpm 939de41400340905ec0b378b501e5d1b8b41e545 fedora/3/updates-testing/x86_64/sendmail-cf-8.13.1-3.legacy.x86_64.rpm c09947143c351f575737036599c23c542404d82e fedora/3/updates-testing/x86_64/sendmail-devel-8.13.1-3.legacy.x86_64.rpm bd1b9553b49e5c2631a40f68461472b1671f9beb fedora/3/updates-testing/x86_64/sendmail-doc-8.13.1-3.legacy.x86_64.rpm --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please test and comment in bugzilla.
