Mandrakelinux Advisory: shorewall


Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory


Package name: shorewall
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:080
Date: August 9th, 2004
Affected versions: 10.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1, Multi
Network Firewall 8.2


Problem Description:

The shorewall package has a vulnerability when creating
temporary files and directories, which could allow non-root users
to overwrite arbitrary files on the system. The updated packages
are patched to fix the problem.

As well, for Mandrakelinux 10.0, the updated packages have been
fixed to start shorewall after the network, rather than before.

After updating the package, if shorewall was previously running,
you may need to issue a “service shorewall restart”.
