Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2004:009 |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2004:009. Elm is a terminal mode email user agent. The frm command is provided as part of the Elm packages and gives a script_summary( list of the sender and subject of selected messages in a mailbox or folder. A buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the frm command. An attacker could create a message with an overly long Subject line such that when the frm command is run by a victim arbitrary code is executed. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2003-0966 to this issue. Users of the frm command should update to these erratum packages, which contain a backported security patch that corrects this issue. Red Hat would like to thank Paul Rubin for discovering and disclosing this issue. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2004-009.html Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5 |
