-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:196 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : ipmitool Date : December 28, 2011 Affected: 2010.1, 2011., Enterprise Server 5.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in ipmitool: ipmievd as used in the ipmitool package uses 0666 permissions for its ipmievd.pid PID file, which allows local users to kill arbitrary processes by writing to this file (CVE-2011-4339). In Mandriva the ipmievd daemon from the ipmitool package does not have an initscript to start and stop the service, however one could rather easily craft an initscript or start the service by other means rendering the system vulnerable to this issue. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-4339 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2010.1: f6c2f49d841734613a86ee619e423042 2010.1/i586/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1mdv2010.2.i586.rpm 14a2b444b863a7c1e5fcf691be9173bf 2010.1/SRPMS/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1mdv2010.2.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2010.1/X86_64: cebb9f5f90b7751f521d660e44863ee7 2010.1/x86_64/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm 14a2b444b863a7c1e5fcf691be9173bf 2010.1/SRPMS/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1mdv2010.2.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2011: 523c03fd637f420e6f5e3e64abc433e1 2011/i586/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm e17dfb205619911e04d6c16021f17855 2011/SRPMS/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2011/X86_64: 3239950450cb9cf73fba6e12d24f6e37 2011/x86_64/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm e17dfb205619911e04d6c16021f17855 2011/SRPMS/ipmitool-1.8.11-8.1.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5: 9be0e6f208f23d65f2fa1a2691244408 mes5/i586/ipmitool-1.8.9-4.1mdvmes5.2.i586.rpm 1e97cbfb4abfff4c7020cdef74af3f35 mes5/SRPMS/ipmitool-1.8.9-4.1mdvmes5.2.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64: 0e46751e107cede43b047cda09c17b80 mes5/x86_64/ipmitool-1.8.9-4.1mdvmes5.2.x86_64.rpm 1e97cbfb4abfff4c7020cdef74af3f35 mes5/SRPMS/ipmitool-1.8.9-4.1mdvmes5.2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
