64: If the Postfix sendmail replacement is installed on a system an
65: attacker may be able to gain root privileges on the local host via
66: sudo(8) which runs the mailer as root with an environment inherited
67: from the invoking user. While this is a bug in sudo it is not
68: believed to be possible to exploit when sendmail (the mailer that
69: ships with OpenBSD) is the mailer. As of version 1.6.5, sudo passes
70: the mailer an environment that is not subject to influence from the
1.369 millert 71: invoking user.<br>

83: to create arbitrary new files in the root directory. Only machines
84: with line printer access (ie: listed in either /etc/hosts.lpd or
85: /etc/hosts.equiv) may be used to mount an attack and the attacker

1.365 jason 108: is being upgraded from OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2 to fix a few problems:
1.357 deraadt 109: <p>
110: <ul>
111: <li>A security hole that may allow an attacker to partially authenticate
112: if -- and only if -- the administrator has enabled KerberosV.
113: <br>
114: By default, OpenSSH KerberosV support only becomes active after KerberosV
115: has been properly configured.
116: <p>
117: <li>An excessive memory clearing bug (which we believe to be unexploitable)
118: also exists, but since this may cause daemon crashes, we are providing a
119: patch as well.
120: <p>
1.365 jason 121: <li>A vulnerability in environment passing in the <code>UseLogin</code>
122: <i>sshd</i> option
123: <p>
1.357 deraadt 124: <li>Various other non-critical fixes.
125: </ul>
126: <p>
1.365 jason 127: Effectively an upgrade of OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2,
128: <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>.

133: A small bug in the installation script causes the <tt>/etc/hosts</tt> file to
134: be incorrectly formed.<br>
135: The resulting file contains a line which reads like:<p>
136: <tt>
137: #.#.#.# hostname. hostname
138: </tt>
139: <p>
140: This line should actually read something like:<p>
141: <tt>
142: #.#.#.# hostname.domainname.com hostname
143: </tt>
144: <p>
145: To correct this problem, simply edit the file and insert the domainname in
146: the required place.
