Advisory Content : -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ________________________________________________________________________ ______ SCO Security Advisory Subject: OpenServer 5.0.7 OpenServer 6.0.0 : UnZip File Permissions Change Vulnerability Advisory number: SCOSA-2005.39 Issue date: 2005 September 28 Cross reference: sr894724 fz532853 erg712904 sr894723 fz532852 erg712905 CAN-2005-2475 ________________________________________________________________________ ______ 1. Problem Description A vulnerability in unzip can be exploited by malicious, local users to perform certain actions on a vulnerable system with escalated privileges. The vulnerability is caused due a race condition that exists when the uncompressed file is closed and before its permissions are changed. This can be exploited via hardlink attacks to change the permissions of other files belonging to the user running unzip. Successful exploitation requires that the malicious user is able to delete the uncompressed file and replace it with a hardlink to another file owned by the unzip user, before permissions are set on the file. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2475 to this issue. 2. Vulnerable Supported Versions System Binaries ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenServer 5.0.7 unzip distribution OpenServer 6.0.0 unzip distribution 3.
