Hi all. This might seem really naive, but can mtree be used effectively as a native-to-core-OS tripwire equivalent? Would it be as efficient in terms of time-to-run and resource requirements? What sort of pitfalls should I be aware of? Has anyone here done this? If so, would you care to share your scripts/techniques? Thanks, Dave -- ______________________

I seem to remember seeing somewhere (on this list/on the web -- don't remember) that there was some ``Snort-like'' software that was available under the BSD license. Unfortunately, I'm unable to find any information about such software. Was I dreaming, or can anybody else jog my memory? :) Kind regards, Devon H. O'Dell

In regards to FreeBSD-SA-03:05.xdr, does anyone know which static binaries or tools under /bin or /sbin actually use that problem code? The recent XDR fixes the xdrmem_getlong_aligned(), xdrmem_putlong_aligned(), xdrmem_getlong_unaligned(), xdrmem_putlong_unaligned(), xdrmem_getbytes(), and/or xdrmem_putbytes() functions, but it is difficult to know what uses these (going backwards manually).

Hello, Some time ago I wrote PR conf/48170, which discussed the following problem: Syslog messages of facility LOG_AUTHPRIV and priority LOG_NOTICE (or higher) are sent by default to the world-readable log file /var/log/messages. That seems unacceptable since the facility LOG_AUTHPRIV is for hiding sensitive log messages inside a protected file, e.g., /var/log/auth.log. For example, login(1)

There's been an ongoing discussion (started by Colin Percival's recent work on nologin) about environment-poisoning attacks via "login -p". I thought I saw a way to address this, but the more I learn, the uglier this looks. Maybe some of the good folks who read freebsd-security can puzzle this one out: Problem: login -p can be used to propagate environment flags in order to

Hello Folks, Just a status on upcoming advisories. FreeBSD-SA-03:15.openssh This is in final review and should be released today. Fixes for this issue entered the tree on September 24. I apologize for the delay in getting this one out. FreeBSD-SA-03:16.filedesc A reference counting bug was discovered that could lead to kernel memory disclosure or a system panic.

In http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?200402260743.IAA18903 it seems RELENG_4 is vulnerable. Is there any work around to a system that has to have ports open ?

Hello everybody, I'm a newbie in this list, so I don't know if it's the appropriate place for my question. Anyway, I'd be happy to find out the solution. Please, has anyone simple answer for: I'm looking for an exact list of files, which: 1. MUST have... 2. HAVE FROM BSD INSTALLATION... 3. DO NOT NEED... 4. NEVER MAY... ...the suid-bit set. Of course, it's no problem to

This affects only 3.7p1 and 3.7.1p1. The advice to leave PAM disabled is far from heartening, nor is the semi-lame blaming the PAM spec for implementation bugs. I happen to like OPIE for remote access. Subject: Portable OpenSSH Security Advisory: sshpam.adv This document can be found at: http://www.openssh.com/txt/sshpam.adv 1. Versions affected: Portable OpenSSH versions 3.7p1

Heya.. Yesterday someone "attacked" by box by connection to several ports.. In other words, a simple portscan.. yet, since my box has "log_in_vain" enabled, so it tries to log everything to /var/log/messages, since the logfile got full and the size went over 100K, it tried to rotate the log to save diskspace.

Is there any reason why releases have EoL dates after only 12 months? While it's clear that some sort of EoL is important, I can't think of any security advisories recently which weren't accompanied by patches for all the security branches, even those which are no longer officially supported. Colin Percival

OK, an official OpenSSH advisory was released, see here: <URL: http://www.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-announce/2003-September/000063.html > The fix is currently in FreeBSD -CURRENT and -STABLE. It will be applied to the security branches as well today. Attached are patches: buffer46.patch -- For FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE and later buffer45.patch -- For FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE and

Hi all, please, is there some utility/command/... to list all installed kernel modules ? Peter Rosa

First of all, I'd like to send a big "thank you" to all the folks who have helped me get this far. Now on to the next problem.

Hi Guys I have been taking a close look at some networking opportunities which are being frustrated by the limits which are imposed by NAT. In particular the constraints impose by the embargo on double NATing have an impact for a project I am working on. Has anyone ever seen anything which I would conceptually describe as a reverse NAT proxy? What I want to be able to do is to be able to create

Hello all, I've been searching around and have come up with no current discussions on this issue. I'll keep it brief: In 7.0 or 7.1 is there any provision to have multiple IP addresses in a jail? I'm stumped on this, as I just started a new hosting project that needs a few jails. At least one of those requires multiple IPs, which is something I never really even realized was

Hi all, I have a Sun x2200 named Adra running OpenSolaris 2008.11 set up as a Dom0 per Levon''s instructions on this site. It hosts some production services and has been running nice and stable for a number of months now (with NetWare DomUs running GroupWise, believe it or not). The machine is pretty nicely speced out and there''s room for more virtualisation, so I was
