Category:	Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:098 (wget)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to wget announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:098. Two vulnerabilities were found in wget. The first is that an HTTP redirect statement could be used to do a directory traversal and write to files outside of the current directory. The second is that HTTP redirect statements could be used to overwrite dot ('.') files, potentially overwriting the user's configuration files (such as .bashrc, etc.). The updated packages have been patched to help address these problems by replacing dangerous directories and filenames containing the dot ('.') character with an underscore ('_') character. Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0, Corporate Server 2.1 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. https://secure1.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2005:098 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 5.0
