-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ OpenPKG Security Advisory The OpenPKG Project http://www.openpkg.org/security.html http://www.openpkg.org openpkg-security@openpkg.org openpkg@openpkg.org OpenPKG-SA-2003.007 23-Jan-2003 ________________________________________________________________________ Package: wget Vulnerability: directory traversal vulnerability OpenPKG Specific: no Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages: OpenPKG CURRENT <= wget-1.8.2-20021206 >= wget-1.8.2-20021216 OpenPKG 1.2 <= none N.A. OpenPKG 1.1 <= wget-1.8.2-1.1.0 >= wget-1.8.2-1.1.1 Affected Releases: Dependent Packages: none Description: According to research done by Steve Christey [0], directory traversal vulnerabilities exist in many FTP clients including wget [1]. Resolution of this issue was handled primarily through Mark Cox of Red Hat whose patches were incorporated into the wget 1.8.2 HEAD development branch of the vendor. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2002-1344 [2] to the problem. Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q wget". If you have the "wget" package installed and its version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it (see Solution). [3][4] Solution: Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release [5], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [6] or a mirror location, verify its integrity [7], build a corresponding binary RPM from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM [4]. For the release OpenPKG 1.1, perform the following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases adjust accordingly). $ rpm --rebuild ftp ftp.openpkg.org ftp> bin ftp> cd release/1.1/UPD ftp> get wget-1.8.2-1.1.1.src.rpm ftp> bye $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig wget-1.8.2-1.1.1.src.rpm $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild wget-1.8.2-1.1.1.src.rpm $ su - # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/wget-1.8.2-1.1.1.*.rpm ________________________________________________________________________ References: [0] http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=103962838628940&w=2 [1] http://sunsite.dk/wget/ [2] http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1344 [3] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html#regular-source [4] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html#regular-binary [5] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.1/UPD/wget-1.8.2-1.1.1.src.rpm [6] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.1/UPD/ [7] http://www.openpkg.org/security.html#signature ________________________________________________________________________ For security reasons, this advisory was digitally signed with the OpenPGP public key "OpenPKG <openpkg@openpkg.org>" (ID 63C4CB9F) of the OpenPKG project which you can find under the official URL http://www.openpkg.org/openpkg.pgp or on http://keyserver.pgp.com/.
