Security Advisory Synopsis: New lpr packages available Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:002-01 Issue date: 2000-01-07 Updated on: 2000-01-07 Keywords: lpr lpd DNS sendmail Cross references: - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: New lpr packages are available to fix two security problems in lpd. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 4.x, all architectures Red Hat Linux 5.x, all architectures Red Hat Linux 6.x, all architectures 3. Problem description: Two security vulnerabilities exist in the lpd (line printer daemon) shipped with the lpr package. First, authentication was not thorough enough. If a remote user was able to control their own DNS so that their IP address resolved to the hostname of the print server, access would be granted, when it should not be. Secondly, it was possible in the control file of a print job to specify arguments to sendmail. By careful manipulation of control and data files, this could cause sendmail to be executed with a user-specified configuration file. This could lead very easily to a root compromise. It is recommended that all users of Red Hat Linux using the lpr package (which is required to print) upgrade to the fixed packages. Thanks go to DilDog (dildog en l0pht com) for noting the vulnerability. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh <filename> where filename is the name of the RPM. 5.
