Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory
Synopsis: Updated package for nfs-utils available
Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:043-02
Issue date: 2000-07-17
Updated on: 2000-07-17
Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: rpc.statd root compromise
Cross references: N/A
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
The rpc.statd daemon in the nfs-utils package shipped in Red Hat
Linux 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2 contains a flaw that could lead to a
remote root break-in.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 6.0 - i386, alpha, sparc
Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386, alpha, sparc
Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386, alpha, sparc
3. Problem description:
The rpc.statd daemon shipped in Red Hat Linux 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2
contains a flaw that could lead to a remote root break-in.
Version 0.1.9.1 of the nfs-utils package corrects the problem.
Although there is no known exploit for the flaw in rpc.statd,
Red Hat urges all users running rpc.statd to upgrade to
the new nfs-utils package.
Users should note that in Red Hat Linux 6.0 and 6.1 the rpc.statd
daemon was in the knfsd-clients package. The nfs-utils package
replaces both the knfsd and knfsd-clients packages shipped in
Red Hat Linux 6.0 and 6.1.
On systems running a kernel older than 2.2.16-3, users should
also take this opportunity to upgrade to the latest kernel
release.
4. Solution:
For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [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 Linux 6.2:
sparc:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/sparc/nfs-utils-0.1.9.1-1.sparc.rpm
