Synopsis |
16 |
======== |
17 |
|
18 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in RPM, possibly allowing |
19 |
local attackers to gain elevated privileges or remote attackers to |
20 |
execute arbitrary code. |
21 |
|
22 |
Background |
23 |
========== |
24 |
|
25 |
The Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) is a command line driven package |
26 |
management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying, |
27 |
querying, and updating computer software packages. |

Description |
38 |
=========== |
39 |
|
40 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in RPM: |
41 |
|
42 |

43 |
files during a package upgrade (CVE-2010-2059). |
44 |
* RPM does not properly parse spec files (CVE-2010-2197). |
45 |
* fsm.c fails to properly strip POSIX file capabilities from executable |
46 |
files during a package upgrade or removal (CVE-2010-2198). |
47 |
* fsm.c fails to properly strip POSIX ACLs from executable files during |
48 |
a package upgrade or removal (CVE-2010-2199). |
49 |
* header.c does not properly parse region offsets in package files |
50 |
(CVE-2011-3378). |
51 |
* RPM does not properly sanitize region tags in package headers |
52 |
(CVE-2012-0060). |
53 |
* RPM does not properly sanitize region sizes in package headers |
54 |
(CVE-2012-0061). |
55 |
* RPM does not properly sanitize region offsets in package |
56 |
headers(CVE-2012-0815). |

Impact |
59 |
====== |
60 |
|
61 |
A local attacker may be able to gain elevated privileges. Furthermore, |
62 |
a remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted RPM |
63 |
package, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the |
64 |
privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition. |
65 |
|
66 |
Workaround |
67 |
========== |
68 |
|
69 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
70 |
|
71 |
Resolution |
72 |
========== |
73 |
|
74 |
All RPM users should upgrade to the latest version: |
75 |
|
76 |
# emerge --sync |
77 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-arch/rpm-4.9.1.3" |
78 |
