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).

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 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.

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

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

Ugh. With MAKE_KERBEROS5=yes, on a recent STABLE, I get the following trying to use Kerberized telnet: # telnet -l test big.x.kientzle.com Trying 66.166.149.54... Connected to big.x.kientzle.com. Escape character is '^]'. [ Trying mutual KERBEROS5 (host/big.x.kientzle.com@X.KIENTZLE.COM)... ] Bus error (core dumped) Fortunately, it's pretty easy to track down: (gdb) up #2

In FreeBSD 5.x only telnet/telnetd works 'out of box' with kerberos. Why ftp/ftpd, ssh/sshd and cvs do not support kerberos ? Thanks!

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 -- ______________________

Hello Folks, The official email address for this list is `freebsd-security@freebsd.org'. Due to convention, there is an email alias for this list: security@freebsd.org, just as there is for hackers@ & freebsd-hackers@, arch@ & freebsd-arch@, and so on.

Hello, The current png-1.2.5_4 port has no more vulnerability. It has been corrected by ache@FreeBSD.org yesterday. But when i try to install the updated port to remplace the vulnerable one this is what i am told : # make install ===> png-1.2.5_4 has known vulnerabilities: >> libpng denial-of-service. Reference:

Hi Everyone, http://vuxml.freebsd.org/c4b025bb-f05d-11d8-9837-000c41e2cdad.html A critical vulnerability was found in lukemftpd, which shipped with some FreeBSD versions (4.7 and later). However, with the exception of FreeBSD 4.7, lukemftpd was not built and installed by default. So, unless you are running FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE or specified WANT_LUKEMFTP when building FreeBSD from source, you

Is it true that (dynamic) binaries are vulnerable if and only if they are linked with libssl.so.3, not with libcrypt or libcrypto? Thanks for your help. Andrew.

Hello Everyone, You may have seen the recent announcement regarding new OpenSSL vulnerabilities. <URL: http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20030930.txt > Just thought I'd drop a line to head off the usual questions. :-) Don't panic. The vulnerability is denial-of-service. OpenSSL 0.9.7c will be imported into -CURRENT and -STABLE over the next couple of days, and included

I hope this isn't too off topic, but I'd like a quick solution to a problem. I have a small network behind a NAT firewall (FreeBSD of course) and I'd like to block/redirect all traffic from the internal network to the local mail server (same box as firewall) in order to prevent direct smtp requests to the outside world (mainly virus/trokan programs). I think I have it right in this

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
