Ärende: LPRng + tetex tmpfile race - uid lp exploit
------------------------------------------------------------
If the tetex package and LPRng are installed, there is an exploitable
race condition with a tmp file that allows elevation of privs.
It's fixed in rawhide, but that doesn't really help people who
just use the provided up2date program to keep themselves secure.
/********************************************************************
Redhat 7.0
LPRng-3.7.4-23 (and earlier) + tetex-1.0.7-7 (and earlier?)
Insecure tmp file privilege elevation vulnerability.
Allows uid/gid lp and root groups on LPRng-3.6.24 and earlier
Please note:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 lp lp 444472 Jun 14 22:05 /usr/bin/lpq*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 lp lp 441624 Jun 14 22:05 /usr/bin/lprm*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 lp lp 459160 Jun 14 22:05 /usr/bin/lpr*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 lp lp 448120 Jun 14 22:05 /usr/bin/lpstat*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 lp lp 448320 Jun 14 22:05 /usr/sbin/lpc*
this program allows trojan code to be planted on the machine it is
executed on.
tmp file handling done badly in helper application (dvi print filter)
allows modification to lp config files.
the configuation file is sourced by the master print filter,
which is itself a shell script, each time something is printed.
this makes it possible to insert commands into the configuration file
by creating a special filename to be included in the file that
is created. (see the close(open(" thingee )

important info about this exploit:
requires some fonts get made when its run.
probably won't be a problem unless someone
else has tried this exploit.
just wait 90 days for /var/lib/texmf to clear
and try again ;]
or try print something different
.dvi files are what does the trick.
