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

1. Summary:

An updated sharutils package is now available.

This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

2. Problem description:

The sharutils package contains a set of tools for encoding and decoding packages of files in binary or text format.

A stack based overflow bug was found in the way shar handles the -o option. If a user can be tricked into running a specially crafted command, it could lead to arbitrary code execution. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1772 to this issue. Please note that this issue does not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

Two buffer overflow bugs were found in sharutils. If an attacker can place a malicious 'wc' command on a victim's machine, or trick a victim into running a specially crafted command, it could lead to arbitrary code execution. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-1773 to this issue.

A bug was found in the way unshar creates temporary files. A local user could use symlinks to overwrite arbitrary files the victim running unshar has write access to. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-0990 to this issue.

All users of sharutils should upgrade to this updated package, which includes backported fixes to correct these issues.
