OpenPKG Security Advisory The OpenPKG Project http://www.openpkg.org/security.html http://www.openpkg.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] OpenPKG-SA-2003.024 19-Mar-2003 ________________________________________________________________________ Package: ircii Vulnerability: buffer overflow vulnerability OpenPKG Specific: no Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages: OpenPKG CURRENT <= ircii-20030314-20030315 >= ircii-20030315-20030316 OpenPKG 1.2 <= ircii-20021103-1.2.0 >= ircii-20021103-1.2.1 OpenPKG 1.1 <= ircii-20020403-1.1.0 >= ircii-20020403-1.1.1 Dependent Packages: none Description: Timo Sirainen audited ircII based clients [1] and found some buffer overflow vulnerabilities in ircii-20020912 [2]. According to his report these problems were fixed in ircii-20030313. We have backported the security relevant pieces of the more recent ircii-20030315 vendor changes into releases used by OpenPKG. Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q ircii". If you have the "ircii" package installed and its version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it (see Solution). [3][4] Solution: Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM [4]. 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 ircii-20021103-1.2.1.src.rpm ftp> bye $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig ircii-20021103-1.2.1.src.rpm $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild ircii-20021103-1.2.1.src.rpm $ su - # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/ircii-20021103-1.2.1.*.rpm ________________________________________________________________________ References: [1] http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/315057 [2] http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/ircii/ [3] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html#regular-source [4] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html#regular-binary [5] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.1/UPD/ircii-20020403-1.1.1.src.rpm [6] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.2/UPD/ircii-20021103-1.2.1.src.rpm [7] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.1/UPD/ [8] ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.2/UPD/ [9] http://www.openpkg.org/security.html#signature ________________________________________________________________________ For security reasons, this advisory was digitally signed with the OpenPGP public key "OpenPKG <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" (ID 63C4CB9F) of the OpenPKG project which you can find under the official URL http://www.openpkg.org/openpkg.pgp or on http://keyserver.pgp.com/.
