70: If the Postfix sendmail replacement is installed on a system an
71: attacker may be able to gain root privileges on the local host via
72: sudo(8) which runs the mailer as root with an environment inherited
73: from the invoking user. While this is a bug in sudo it is not
74: believed to be possible to exploit when sendmail (the mailer that
75: ships with OpenBSD) is the mailer. As of version 1.6.5, sudo passes
76: the mailer an environment that is not subject to influence from the
1.369 millert 77: invoking user.<br>

1.362 millert 88: A security issue exists in the lpd daemon that may allow an attacker
89: to create arbitrary new files in the root directory. Only machines
90: with line printer access (ie: listed in either /etc/hosts.lpd or
91: /etc/hosts.equiv) may be used to mount an attack and the attacker

1.365 jason 114: is being upgraded from OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2 to fix a few problems:
1.357 deraadt 115: <p>
116: <ul>
117: <li>A security hole that may allow an attacker to partially authenticate
118: if -- and only if -- the administrator has enabled KerberosV.
119: <br>
120: By default, OpenSSH KerberosV support only becomes active after KerberosV
121: has been properly configured.
122: <p>
123: <li>An excessive memory clearing bug (which we believe to be unexploitable)
124: also exists, but since this may cause daemon crashes, we are providing a
125: patch as well.
126: <p>
1.365 jason 127: <li>A vulnerability in environment passing in the <code>UseLogin</code>
128: <i>sshd</i> option
129: <p>
1.357 deraadt 130: <li>Various other non-critical fixes.
131: </ul>
132: <p>
1.365 jason 133: Effectively an upgrade of OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2,
134: <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>.

138: <li><font color=#009000><strong>001: INSTALL ISSUE: November 12, 2001</strong></font><br>
139: A small bug in the installation script causes the <tt>/etc/hosts</tt> file to
140: be incorrectly formed.<br>
141: The resulting file contains a line which reads like:<p>
142: <tt>
143: #.#.#.# hostname. hostname
144: </tt>
145: <p>
146: This line should actually read something like:<p>
147: <tt>
148: #.#.#.# hostname.domainname.com hostname
149: </tt>
150: <p>
151: To correct this problem, simply edit the file and insert the domainname in
152: the required place.
