Detail
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in ekg, a console Gadu Gadu client, an instant messaging program. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following vulnerabilities: CAN-2005-1850 Marcin Owsiany and Wojtek Kaniewski discovered insecure temporary file creation in contributed scripts. CAN-2005-1851 Marcin Owsiany and Wojtek Kaniewski discovered potential shell command injection in a contributed script. CAN-2005-1916 Eric Romang discovered insecure temporary file creation and arbitrary command execution in a contributed script that can be exploited by a local attacker. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain an ekg package. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 1.5+20050411-4. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.5+20050712+1.6rc2-1. We recommend that you upgrade your ekg package. |

17722 | ekg linki.py Add-on Symlink Arbitrary File Manipulation Eksperymentalny Klient Gadu-Gadu (EKG) contains a flaw that may allow a malicious local user to overwrite or create arbitrary files on the system. The issue is due to the czyjest and handle_keypress() functions in the contrib/scripts/linki.py script creating temporary files insecurely. It is possible for a user to use a symlink style attack from a critical EKG file to the /tmp/rmrmg_ekg_url file. When EKG is run, the temporary symlink file is activated with the privileges of the user running EKG, resulting in a loss of integrity. |
