+
+Package: file
+Vulnerability: memory allocation problem, stack overflow
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= file-3.40-20030209 >= file-3.41-20030228
+OpenPKG 1.2 <= file-3.39-1.2.0 >= file-3.39-1.2.1
+OpenPKG 1.1 <= file-3.39-1.1.1 >= file-3.39-1.1.2
+
+Dependent Packages: none N.A.
+
+Description:
+ Jeff Johnson found a memory allocation problem and David Endler found
+ a stack overflow corruption problem in the file [0] "Automatic File
+ Content Type Recognition Tool" version 3.41. Nalin Dahyabhai improved
+ ELF section and program header handling in file [0] version 3.40. We
+ believe that file versions without those modifications are vulnerable
+ to memory allocation and stack overflow problems which put security at
+ risk. We have backported the security relevant pieces of the 3.41 and
+ 3.40 vendor changes into OpenPKG releases using vendor version 3.39.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
+ -q file". If you have the "file" package installed and its version
+ is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade
+ it (see Solution). [2][3]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [4][5], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [6][7] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [8], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [2] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
+ RPM [3]. 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 file-3.39-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig file-3.39-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild file-3.39-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/file-3.39-1.2.1.*.rpm
