Webmin security hole

2002-05-07 Thread Chris Kassopulo

Greetings,

I know many of you are users of Webmin.

>From Freshmeat:

Webmin 0.970

-- Changes: 
Fixed a serious security hole that allowed a remote attacker to log in
to Webmin as any user. A new Security Sentries module for configuring
portsentry,  hostsentry, and logcheck was added, as well as support for
editing EXT2/3 file attributes with the File Manager. The Cluster
Software Packages module can now transfer large packages much faster to
remote servers also running Webmin 0.970, and the Network Configuration
module now supports SuSE 8.0.

I believe that in order to use this, you have to have Open Office 
installed as it is in an open office file format.

Here is a web page with installation instructions:

Or Linus's viewpoint, as devfs remains listed as an "EXPERIMENTAL" option
in the kernel config.

Which is what is happening. However, when suggesting a change, it is often
interesting to muse and see what others may think. It could improve the
quality of the bug report. Or feature request. Or whatever. Instead of
just complaining half cocked. IMHO. (BTW, I was defending the SO/OO
choice of not using RPM, which hardly warrants a bug report to them...)

If not, entering one would certainly be more productive than bitching on this 
list. I suspect if someone took the time to contribute a README, they'd 
accept it.
Find the bug (if not found, enter a bug) and submit the README.
All of which is just my opinion...
