52: A race condition between the ptrace(2) and execve(2) system calls allows
53: an attacker to modify the memory contents of suid/sgid processes which
54: could lead to compromise of the super-user account.<br>

59: If the Postfix sendmail replacement is installed on a system an
60: attacker may be able to gain root privileges on the local host via
61: sudo(8) which runs the mailer as root with an environment inherited
62: from the invoking user. While this is a bug in sudo it is not
63: believed to be possible to exploit when sendmail (the mailer that
64: ships with OpenBSD) is the mailer. As of version 1.6.5, sudo passes
65: the mailer an environment that is not subject to influence from the
1.369 millert 66: invoking user.<br>

1.362 millert 77: A security issue exists in the lpd daemon that may allow an attacker
78: to create arbitrary new files in the root directory. Only machines
79: with line printer access (ie: listed in either /etc/hosts.lpd or
80: /etc/hosts.equiv) may be used to mount an attack and the attacker
81: must have root access on the machine. OpenBSD does not start lpd

1.365 jason 103: is being upgraded from OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2 to fix a few problems:
1.357 deraadt 104: <p>
105: <ul>
106: <li>A security hole that may allow an attacker to partially authenticate
107: if -- and only if -- the administrator has enabled KerberosV.
108: <br>
109: By default, OpenSSH KerberosV support only becomes active after KerberosV
110: has been properly configured.
111: <p>
112: <li>An excessive memory clearing bug (which we believe to be unexploitable)
113: also exists, but since this may cause daemon crashes, we are providing a
114: patch as well.
115: <p>
1.365 jason 116: <li>A vulnerability in environment passing in the <code>UseLogin</code>
117: <i>sshd</i> option
118: <p>
1.357 deraadt 119: <li>Various other non-critical fixes.
120: </ul>

1.365 jason 122: Effectively an upgrade of OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2,
123: <a href="ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/3.0/common/002_ssh2.patch">a source code patch exists which remedies these problems</a>.
124: This is the second version of this patch.

127: <li><font color=#009000><strong>001: INSTALL ISSUE: November 12, 2001</strong></font><br>
128: A small bug in the installation script causes the <tt>/etc/hosts</tt> file to
129: be incorrectly formed.<br>
130: The resulting file contains a line which reads like:<p>
131: <tt>
132: #.#.#.# hostname. hostname
133: </tt>
134: <p>
135: This line should actually read something like:<p>
136: <tt>
137: #.#.#.# hostname.domainname.com hostname
138: </tt>
139: <p>
140: To correct this problem, simply edit the file and insert the domainname in
141: the required place.
