1. Topic:
Updated fetchmail packages are now available for Red Hat Linux 5.2, 6.2, 7,
and 7.1. These packages close a remotely-exploitable vulnerability in
fetchmail.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 5.2 - alpha, i386, sparc
Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386, sparc
Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386
Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, i386, ia64
3. Problem description:
Fetchmail versions up to 5.8.9 are susceptible to remote attacks from
malicious servers. When fetchmail attempts to create an index of messages
in the remote mailbox being polled, it uses index numbers sent by the
server as an index into an internal array. If a server sends fetchmail a
negative number, fetchmail will attempt to write data outside the bounds of
the array.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
