As well, xinetd contains a security flaw in which it defaults to a umask of 0. This means that applications using the xinetd umask that do not set permissions themselves (like SWAT, a web configuration tool for Samba), will create world writable files. This update sets the default umask to 022. Update: This update forces the TMPDIR to /tmp instead of obtaining it from the root user by default, which uses /root/tmp. As well, this version of xinetd also fixed a possible buffer overflow in the logging code that was reported by zen-parse on bugtraq, but was not mentioned in the previous advisory. ________________________________________________________________________ References: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2826 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2840 ________________________________________________________________________ Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of the downloaded package. You can do this with the command: rpm --checksig package.rpm You can get the GPG public key of the Mandrake Linux Security Team at http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG signature is performed automatically for you.

If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm". You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites listed at: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3. Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory. For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for Mandrake Linux 8.0, look for it in "updates/8.0/RPMS/". Updated source RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download them. Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to update.
