Bugs: #82753
ID: 200502-28

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Synopsis


PuTTY was found to contain vulnerabilities that can allow a malicious
SFTP server to execute arbitrary code on unsuspecting PSCP and PSFTP
clients.

Background
==

PuTTY is a popular SSH client, PSCP is a secure copy implementation,
and PSFTP is a SSH File Transfer Protocol client.

Affected packages
=

---
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
---
1 net-misc/putty < 0.57 >= 0.57

Description
===

Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in the PSCP and PSFTP clients,
which can be triggered by the SFTP server itself. These issues are
caused by the improper handling of the FXP_READDIR response, along with
other string fields.

Impact
==

An attacker can setup a malicious SFTP server that would send these
malformed responses to a client, potentially allowing the execution of
arbitrary code on their system.

Workaround
==

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==

All PuTTY users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/putty-0.57"

References
==

Re: [ilugd] Creating Mysql DB in specified directory???

2005-02-22 Thread Subhasis Ray
Hi,

If you are installing mysql from tarball, then i guess you can get the
db dir to be anywhere but if you are using the rpm builds, then
you can make symlinks from /var/lib/mysql/ to anywhere you
like.

Both the links are working fine.

If you are able to access rediffmail, there is no reason for these
links to be unavailable... anyway pls. wait a response from someone
else as I don't have ready documentation available.

Alternatively, if you want to try; just boot the machine from first CD
and online help is available on the left panel of the installation
windows.

Well! there are many ways... the easiest and cheapest is to use the
email gateway of your service provider.
In the nagios contacts.cfg  config where you write the email write the 
cellphone's email address.. [EMAIL PROTECTED]

the other method is to get a sms gateway. another method could be to
attach a cellphone to the server and send messaged from the cellphone
via an api the cellphone vendor provides.
