-----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-2003.034 10-Jul-2003 ________________________________________________________________________ Package: imagemagick Vulnerability: create or overwrite files OpenPKG Specific: no Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages: OpenPKG CURRENT <= imagemagick-5.5.6.0-20030409 >= imagemagick-5.5.7.0-20030512 OpenPKG 1.2 <= imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.0 >= imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.1 OpenPKG 1.1 <= imagemagick-5.4.8.2-1.1.0 >= imagemagick-5.4.8.2-1.1.1 Dependent Packages: none Description: According to a Debian security advisory [0] ImageMagick's [1] libmagick library, under certain circumstances, creates temporary files without taking appropriate security precautions. This vulnerability could be exploited by a local user to create or overwrite files with the privileges of another user who is invoking a program using this library. Research has shown that all versions of ImageMagick before 5.5.7.0 are affected on the officially supported OpenPKG platforms. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2003-0455 [2] to the problem. Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q imagemagick". If you have the "imagemagick" 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][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM [4]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases adjust accordingly). $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org ftp> bin ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD ftp> get imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.1.src.rpm ftp> bye $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.1.src.rpm $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.1.src.rpm $ su - # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.1.*.rpm ________________________________________________________________________ References: [0] http://www.debian.org/security/2003/dsa-331 [1] http://www.imagemagick.org/ [2] http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0455 [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/imagemagick-5.4.8.2-1.1.1.src.rpm [6] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.2/UPD/imagemagick-5.5.3.2-1.2.1.src.rpm [7] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.1/UPD/ [8] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.2/UPD/ [9] 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 retrieve from http://pgp.openpkg.org and hkp://pgp.openpkg.org.
