19 We're very pleased to announce the launch of three major efforts: Gentoo
20 Linux 2004, Portage-ng and catalyst. Starting with the next release of
21 Gentoo Linux (Gentoo Linux 2004,) Gentoo Linux will move to a quarterly
22 release schedule. More info is available in the Roadmap for Gentoo Linux
23 2004[1].

26
27 In addition, we're pleased to announce the start of development on
28 "portage-ng," the successor to the ever-popular portage package manager.
29 Learn more at our Portage project page[2] and our in-progress architecture
30 specification document for Portage-ng development[3]. Portage-ng will be a
31 true community effort, and we encourage you to get involved.

35
36 And then there's catalyst. Starting with Gentoo Linux 2004, all releases
37 (including LiveCDs) will be fully user-rebuildable using our new catalyst
38 build technology. Using catalyst, Gentoo users will be able to easily
39 create their own customized Gentoo releases, LiveCDs, GameCDs -- you name
40 it. The current development version of catalyst[4] supports building
41 stages and GRP sets on AMD64 (both 64-bit and 32-bit x86), x86 and
42 PowerPC. LiveCD/GameCD building will be released by the end of the year.
43 Keep up-to-date on catalyst by visiting our (currently sparse) catalyst
44 project pages[5]. Enjoy!

49 Gentoo rsync.gentoo.org server compromised
50 ------------------------------------------
51
52 On 2 December at approximately 03:45 UTC, one of the servers that makes up
53 the rsync.gentoo.org rotation was compromised, possibly via a remotely
54 exploitable rsync buffer overflow. Please also be sure to read
55 GLSA-200312-02 and upgrade to kernels without the brk vulnerability.
56
57 The compromised system had both an IDS and a file integrity checker
58 installed and we have a very detailed forensic trail of what happened once
59 the box was breached, so we are reasonably confident that the portage tree
60 stored on the box was unaffected. This box has been removed from all
61 rsync.*.gentoo.org rotations and will remain so until forensic analysis
62 has been completed and it has been wiped and rebuilt. For more details,
63 see the GLSA.
64
65 In regards to the hard work involved in logging, tracking down and fixing
66 this rsync vulnerability, Gentoo would like to extend thanks to Andrea
67 Barisani, Nedd Ludd, Kurt Lieber, and Corey Shields (of the Gentoo
68 Infrastructure team,) Michael Warfield and the ISS[6] team, and the rsync
69 development team for handling the recent issues. A special thanks goes to
70 Dave Monnier, Lead Security Engineer for the Information Technology
71 Security Office of Indiana University, and his team, for their assistance
72 as well.

75
76 'emerge rsync' etiquette
77 ------------------------
78
79 Over recent weeks we have noticed an increase in the number of connection
80 attempts people make to the rsync servers per day. Because rsync is quite
81 intensive on the server (both for CPU and disk access), syncing many times
82 a day wastes a lot of resources apart from bandwidth; during the time it's
83 processing such a request it could be serving someone else with a greater
84 number of changes in their portage tree.
85
86 As such, we request that people endeavour to run `emerge sync' at most
87 once or twice a day; if you have several machines in a LAN, then set up a
88 local rsync mirror updating from `rsync.gentoo.org' instead of targetting
89 any particular mirror.
90
91 We reserve the right to monitor users' connection-rates in order to
92 preserve server performance.
93
94 More praise: Linux Journal
95 --------------------------
96
97 This week Gentoo Linux has received praise from another Linux periodical:
98 Linux Journal[7]. In their review[8] of Gentoo, they say that "In addition
99 to endless customization possibilities and performance improvements,
100 Gentoo offers solid documentation and a strong community support base".

116 Our featured developer this week is Arcady Genkin[9] (agenkin), who helps
117 maintain many of the sound and video ebuilds in portage, notably
118 alsa-drivers and xine. His primary duties are implementing bug fixes and
119 ensuring that ebuild packages remain current. He has significant
120 experience as an Open-Source developer, having been a core developer on
121 the Squirrelmail[10] project and the primary author of the nhmon[11] tool
122 for simultaneous monitoring of a large number of hosts.

128 Currently residing in downtown Toronto, Canada, Arcady is originally from
129 St. Petersburg, Russia. He is a graduate of the Engineering School of
130 Electronics in St. Petersburg, where he studied production of
131 micro-electronic devices and technical translation. He also has a Honours
132 Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Toronto. He
133 works as a Systems Programmer/Administrator for the Department of Computer
134 Science at the University of Toronto. The job primarily comprises
135 programming various tools for automating systems administration and
136 instructional assistance for Computer Science courses. According to
137 Arcady, it is "the perfect mix of programming tasks, ranging from C,
138 Python, Perl and PHP programming to keeping mail, DNS, web servers running
139 to installing new software".
140
141 Arcady's home environment contains six computers: a FreeBSD
142 firewall/server, two workstations (his is the Gentoo one, we won't talk
143 about his girlfriend's), a gentoo-based diskless multimedia station, and
144 two notebooks (his runs Debian). At work, he has some responsibility for
145 about 200 workstations, 50 Sun Sparc Ultra5 and Ultra10 X terminals, and a
146 double-handful of servers. His workstation runs Gentoo. He is a KDE user
147 (largely because of the reliable keyboard switching between Cyrillic and
148 Latin). He launches XMMS[12] and Tkabber[13] at startup, and does much of
149 his work in XEmacs[14].

154
155 Arcady enjoys hiking, skiing, watching movies, music and reading. He is
156 currently learning French and reading Words by Sartre. He is fond enough
157 of one of e.e. cummings poems to include it in his .sig: guilt is the
158 cause of more disauders; than history's most obscene marorders. When asked
159 about Gentoo, he told us that "Gentoo Linux can be a very convenient tool
160 in experienced hands; its main advantage is that it is very customizable:
161 it is extremely easy to add new packages to it, or modify existing ones,
162 including the packages of the base system".

176 GLSA: rsync.gentoo.org rotation server compromised
177 --------------------------------------------------
178
179 On December 2nd at approximately 03:45 UTC, one of the servers that makes
180 up the rsync.gentoo.org rotation was compromised via a remote exploit. At
181 this point, we are still performing forensic analysis. However, the
182 compromised system had both an IDS and a file integrity checker installed
183 and we have a very detailed forensic trail of what happened once the box
184 was breached, so we are reasonably confident that the portage tree stored
185 on that box wasunaffected.
186
187 The attacker appears to have installed a rootkit and modified/deleted some
188 files to cover their tracks, but left the server otherwise untouched. The
189 box was in a compromised state for approximately one hour before it was
190 discovered and shut down. During this time, approximately 20 users
191 synchronized against the portage mirror stored on this box. The method
192 used to gain access to the box remotely is still under investigation. We
193 will release more details once we have ascertained the cause of the remote
194 exploit.
195
196 This box is not an official Gentoo infrastructure box and is instead
197 donated by a sponsor. The box provides other services as well and the
198 sponsor has requested that we not publicly identify the box at this time.
199 Because the Gentoo part of this box appears to be unaffected by this
200 exploit, we are currently honoring the sponsor's request. That said, if at
201 any point, we determine that any file in the portage tree was modified in
202 any way, we will release full details about the compromised server.

209 GLSA: kernel
210 ------------
211
212 Lack of proper bounds checking exists in the do_brk() kernel function in
213 Linux kernels prior to 2.4.23. This bug can be used to give a userland
214 program or malicious service access to the full kernel address space and
215 gain root privileges. This issue is known to be exploitable.
216

254 GLSA: exploitable overflow in rsync
255 -----------------------------------
256
257 Rsync version 2.5.6 contains a vulnerability that can be used to run
258 arbitrary code. The Gentoo infrastructure team has some reasonably good
259 forensic evidence that this exploit may have been used in combination with
260 the Linux kernel brk vulnerability (see GLSA 200312-02) to exploit a
261 rsync.gentoo.org rotation server (see GLSA-200312-01.)
262
263 Please see http://lwn.net/Articles/61541/ for the security advisory
264 released by the rsync development team.

350 All too quietly, the Italian Linux Day in Venice[28] organised by the
351 Venezia Free Software Users Group[29] passed us by on Saturday 29
352 November, particularly embarrassing because the GECHI[30] (an acronym for
353 "Gentoo CHannel Italy" also meaning "gecco" in Italian) hijacked the
354 occasion to organise their first Gentoo Day! Gilberto de Faveri aka
355 MyZelF[31] held a presentation[32] about Gentoo Linux, and the foto
356 album[33] illustrates some other things that happened in the course of the
357 event. Now, had they wanted an announcement of the event before the

496 7. Tips and Tricks
497 ==================
498
499 Backup up files with tar
500
501 This weeks tip demonstrates a quick way to back up files using tar.
502
503 One of the options for tar is -T which allows you to specify which files
504 should go in the tar archive. So, create a file named backup.confand list
505 all files or directories you want backed up in this file (one per line).
506 Then run tar and specify -T backup.conf.
507
508 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
509 | Code Listing 7.1: |
510 | backup.conf |
511 |-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
512 | |
513 |# cat >> /etc/backup.conf |
514 |# /etc/passwd |
515 |# /etc/shadow |
516 |# /etc/group |
517 |# /etc/make.conf |
518 |# /etc/postfix |
519 |# EOF |
520 | |
521 |Add more files/directories as necessary |
522 | |
523 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
524
525 Now use tar to create a backup archive of your files.
526
527 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
528 | Code Listing 7.2: |
529 | tar -T |
530 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
531 | |
532 |# tar -cjf backup-`date +%Y-%m-%d`.tar.bz2 -T /etc/backup.conf |
533 | |
534 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
535
536 This will archive your files in a file named backup-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.bz2
537 (where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, and DD is the day).
538
539 Note: You could also specify an absolute path such as
540 /backups/backup-`date +%Y-%m-%d.tar.bz` and run the command as a script
541 from cron on a recurring basis.
