Title: Four Mandrake Security Advisories: 1. MDKSA-2005:012 - zhcon 2. MDKSA-2005:013 - ehereal 3. MDKSA-2005:014 - squid 4. MDKSA-2005:015 - mailman
Abstract:
Vendors affected: Mandrake
Operating systems affected: Mandrake
Applications affected: Mandrake
Title
=====
Four Mandrake Security Advisories:
1. MDKSA-2005:012 - zhcon
2. MDKSA-2005:013 - ehereal
3. MDKSA-2005:014 - squid
4. MDKSA-2005:015 - mailman
Detail
======
1. Erik Sjolund discovered that zhcon accesses a user-controlled configuration file with elevated privileges which could make it possible to read arbitrary files.
2. A number of vulnerabilities were found in Ethereal, all of which are fixed in
version 0.10.9: The COPS dissector could go into an infinite loop (CAN-2005-0006); the DLSw dissector could cause an assertion, making Ethereal exit prematurely
(CAN-2005-0007); the DNP dissector could cause memory corruption (CAN-2005-0008); the Gnutella dissector could cause an assertion, making Ethereal exit prematurely
(CAN-2005-0009); the MMSE dissector could free static memory (CAN-2005-0010); and
the X11 protocol dissector is vulnerable to a string buffer overflow (CAN-2005-0084).
3. "infamous41md" discovered two vulnerabilities in the squid proxy cache server.
The first is a buffer overflow in the Gopher response parser which leads to memory
corruption and would usually crash squid (CAN-2005-0094). The second is an integer overflow in the receiver of WCCP (Web Cache Communication Protocol) messages. An
attacker could send a specially crafted UDP datagram that would cause squid to crash
(CAN-2005-0095).
4. Florian Weimer discovered a vulnerability in Mailman, which can be exploited by
malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory _______________________________________________________________________
Package name: mailman
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2005:015
Date: January 24th, 2005
Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, Corporate Server 2.1,
Corporate Server 3.0
______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Florian Weimer discovered a vulnerability in Mailman, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Input is not properly sanitised by "scripts/driver" when returning error
pages. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML or script code in
a user's browser session in context of a vulnerable site by tricking a user
into visiting a malicious web site or follow a specially crafted link.
(CAN-2004-1177).
