Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 09/30/2004 11:51 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

Updated ruby packages are available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 and 3

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis: Updated ruby package fixes security flaw
Advisory ID: RHSA-2004:441-01

Updated on: 2004-09-30
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Keywords: file permission
CVE Names: CAN-2004-0755
----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Summary:

An updated ruby package that fixes insecure file permissions for CGI session files is now available.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 - i386
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 - i386
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 2.1 - i386
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64

3. Problem description:

Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for object-oriented programming.

Andres Salomon reported an insecure file permissions flaw in the CGI session management of Ruby. FileStore created world readable files that could allow a malicious local user the ability to read CGI session data. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0755 to this issue.

Users are advised to upgrade to this erratum package, which contains a backported patch to CGI::Session FileStore.




4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat Update Agent, use the following command:

up2date

For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the following Web page for the System Administration or Customization guide specific to your system:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/
