Immunix Secured OS Security Advisory
Packages updated: openssh
Affected products: Immunix OS 7+
Bugs fixed: CAN-2003-0693
Date: Tue Sep 16 2003
Advisory ID: IMNX-2003-7+-020-01
Author: Seth Arnold <sarnold@immunix.com>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in OpenSSH that is rumoured to be
remotely exploitable for root privileges, even in the face of privsep.
The bug is in the buffer_append_space() function, which operates on
Buffer structs; these structs have a buffer initialized through
malloc(), so StackGuard is unlikely to have any impact on any
potential exploits.
The vulnerability comes when the fatal() function calls cleanup
handlers that rely on potentially corrupted data. This patch
corrects buffer_append_space() to maintain consistent state.
