-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2013:125 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : sleuthkit Date : April 10, 2013 Affected: Business Server 1.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Updated sleuthkit packages fix security vulnerabilities: A security flaw was found in the way the Sleuth Kit (TSK), a collection of UNIX-based command line tools allowing to investigate a computer, performed management of \'.\' (dotfile) file system entry. An attacker could use this flaw to evade detection by forensic analysis (hide certain files not to be scanned) by renaming the file in question it to be \'.\' file system entry. The original reports speaks about this attack vector to be present when scanning FAT (File Allocation Table) file system. It is possible though, the flaw to be present on other file systems, which do not reserve usage of \'.\' entry for special purpose, too. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-5619 https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Support/Advisories/MGASA-2013-0031 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 1/X86_64: 965ee1053bac8a19a064f9c0ad6c4cda mbs1/x86_64/lib64tsk3_9-4.0.1-1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm 18f1509bda7d2b6e07a292a094c1edb8 mbs1/x86_64/lib64tsk3-devel-4.0.1-1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm d58d0a0e0d8daa64f47d9100ba1f9bbd mbs1/x86_64/sleuthkit-4.0.1-1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm 40930584aa415b849f20557352222dda mbs1/SRPMS/sleuthkit-4.0.1-1.mbs1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
