                        SuSE Security Announcement

        Package:                traceroute
        Announcement-ID:        SuSE-SA:2000:041
        Date:                   Monday, October 16th, 2000 16:10 MEST
        Affected SuSE versions: 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0
        Vulnerability Type:     local root compromise
        Severity (1-10):        6
        SuSE default package:   yes
        Other affected systems: Linux systems using the NANOG traceroute

    Content of this advisory:
        1) security vulnerability resolved: traceroute
           problem description, discussion, solution and upgrade information
        2) pending vulnerabilities, solutions, workarounds
        3) standard appendix (further information)

______________________________________________________________________________

1)  problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade
information

    The security problem in the traceroute program as shipped with
    SuSE Linux distributions is completely different from the one
    reported on security mailing lists a few days ago (`traceroute -g
    1 -g 1') by Pekka Savola <pekkas@netcore.fi>. SuSE distributions
    do not contain this particular traceroute implementation.  The
    problem in our traceroute was discovered independently and
    reported to us by H D Moore <hdm@secureaustin.com>. The problem
    in the implementation of traceroute that we ship is a format
    string parsing bug in a routine that can be used to terminate a
    line in traceroute's output to easily embed the program in cgi
    scripts as used for web frontends for traceroute.  Using a
    specially crafted sequence of characters on the commandline, it
    is possile to trick the traceroute program into running arbitrary
    code as root.

    If you want to temporarily work around this security vulnerability,
    you can disable traceroute for normal users by clearing the suid bit on
    the file /usr/sbin/traceroute: chmod -s /usr/sbin/traceroute . Do not
    forget to change the respective line in /etc/permissions to read:
        /usr/sbin/traceroute                   root.root        755

    We have prepared update packages on our ftp server that eliminate
    the vulnerability in the traceroute program. Note that the
    traceroute program is contained in the nkita or the nkitb
    package, depending on the distribution version.

    Download the update package from locations described below and install
    the package with the command `rpm -Fhv file.rpm'. The md5sum for each
    file is in the line below. You can verify the integrity of the rpm
    files using the command
        `rpm --checksig --nogpg file.rpm',
    independently from the md5 signatures below.
