Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory
Synopsis: kdelibs vulnerability for suid-root KDE applications
Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:032-02
Issue date: 2000-06-07
Updated on: 2000-06-07
Product: Red Hat Powertools
Keywords: N/A
Cross references: N/A
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
In kdelibs 1.1.2 there are security issues for some applications when
they are run suid root.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Powertools 6.0 - i386
Red Hat Powertools 6.1 - i386
Red Hat Powertools 6.2 - i386
3. Problem description:
In kdelibs 1.1.2, there are security issues with the way some
applications perform when they are run suid root. The only
application vulnerable is kwintv from Powertools. With our PAM
configuration, the suid bit for kwintv is not necessary.
4. Solution:
For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Uvh [filename]
where filename is the name of the RPM.
5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):
N/A
6. RPMs required:
Red Hat Powertools 6.2:
intel:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/updates/powertools/6.2/i386/kwintv-0.7.5-2.i386.rpm
sources:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/updates/powertools/6.2/SRPMS/kwintv-0.7.5-2.src.rpm
