Hello, For some reason, I thought little about the "clear" command today.. Let's say a privileged user (root) logs on, edit a sensitive file (e.g, a file containing a password, running vipw, etc) .. then runs clear and logout. Then anyone can press the scroll-lock command, scroll back up and read the sensitive information.. Isn't "clear" ment to clear the

Keir, I noticed that a Shadow patch went into the 3.1.1 staging tree today. Does this mean that we should expect a 4th release candidate before the 3.1.1 release tag is official? If so - how much testing time are you going to give that release candidate before deciding whether a release tag, or another RC round is appropriate?

I just confirmed the following bug on my firefox. http://secunia.com/advisories/14820/ Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20050219 Firefox/1.0 (I think my firefox is a month or two behind, from ports, but the advisary indicates both 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 are effected.)

I need some advice. I updated the kernel but when I restarted my computer I got the following error message: -- I cannot start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. ... Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module! -- I've started my computer using the old kernel. I found out that there's a new nvidia driver so I will also update it.

Hi, FYI, Red Hat released an advisory today about a vulnerability in Ruby. So far it doesn't appear in the VuXML, but am I correct in presuming it will soon? https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2006-0604.html http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-3694 cheers, -- Joel Hatton -- Infrastructure Manager | Hotline: +61 7 3365 4417 AusCERT - Australia's national

There has been some talk about a zlib security problem that could let someone overflow the buffers in the zlib decompression code, potentially allowing someone to craft an exploit to execute arbitrary code. Since this is a decompression bug, this can only affect an rsync daemon if it allows uploads with the --compress option enabled. If you run a daemon that allows uploads, you may wish to add

http://secunia.com/advisories/54438/ Since I already got 3 private mails about this, here's the same reply for everyone (actually updated, now that I looked at the code): This was a v2.2-only bug. And it isn't really a DoS.. It only caused the one pop3 process to crash in assert, which was handling only the connection that had already disconnected. (Unless you were running a

As a Cygwin rsync package maintainer, the following security fixes have been brought to my attention: http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-misc/rsync/files/rsync-2.6.9-stats-fix.patch http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-misc/rsync/files/rsync-2.6.9-fname-obo.patch And while they seem "trusted" enough to me (present in many packages such as Gentoo, FreeBSD
