ID de Prueba:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51566
Categoría:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Título:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2001:402
Resumen:NOSUMMARY
Descripción:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2001:402.

exim is a popular mail server (MTA) that is included in many
GNU/Linux distributions.
Megyer Laszlo reported a format bug vulnerability in the exim package
that could lead to a compromise if exim is run as root. This software
is not installed by default on Conectiva Linux 6.0 and, even if
installed, the default configuration is not vulnerable because it
does not include the headers_check_syntax option in the
/etc/exim.conf configuration file which is needed to trigger the bug.
If, however, that option is enabled, and exim is also used to process
batched SMTP input (via the -bS command-line option), then the
service becomes vulnerable and a remote attack becomes possible.


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
