-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2015:208 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : setup Date : April 27, 2015 Affected: Business Server 2.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Updated setup package fixes security vulnerability: An issue has been identified in Mandriva Business Server 2's setup package where the /etc/shadow and /etc/gshadow files containing password hashes were created with incorrect permissions, making them world-readable (mga#14516). This update fixes this issue by enforcing that those files are owned by the root user and shadow group, and are only readable by those two entities. Note that this issue only affected new Mandriva Business Server 2 installations. Systems that were updated from previous Mandriva versions were not affected. This update was already issued as MDVSA-2015:184, but the latter was withdrawn as it generated .rpmnew files for critical configuration files, and rpmdrake might propose the user to use those basically empty files, thus leading to loss of passwords or partition table. This new update ensures that such .rpmnew files are not kept after the update. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0162.html _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 2/X86_64: 0896d07e3297e4a8cba2d4c14b1de479 mbs2/x86_64/setup-2.7.20-10.2.mbs2.noarch.rpm 314bd5ca00cb98093b930a23070d5d7a mbs2/SRPMS/setup-2.7.20-10.2.mbs2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
