Hash: SHA1

Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen,

soeben erreichte uns nachfolgende Warnung des IBM Managed Security
Services. Wir geben diese Informationen unveraendert an Sie weiter.

Buffer Overflow in der Bibliothek libtt.a

In der ToolTalk Biliothek (libtt.a) laesst sich ein Buffer Overflow
ausloesen. Ein Angreifer kann diese Schwachstelle ueber das Netz dazu
ausnutzen, beliebigen Code mit den Rechten des rpc.ttdbserver ablaufen
zu lassen (i.d.R. root), da dieser die verwundbare Bibliothek benutzt.

Betroffen sind die folgenden Software Pakete und Plattformen:

DETAILED INFORMATION

I. DESCRIPTION

There is a buffer overflow vulnerability in the ToolTalk library
libtt.a. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability when
the rpc.ttdbserver is enabled in /etc/inetd.conf.

The successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows a remote
attacker to execute arbitrary code as the root user.

The following libraries and executables are vulnerable:

/usr/dt/lib/libtt.a
/usr/dt/bin/rpc.ttdbserver

II. PLATFORM VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT

Note: To use the following commands on VIOS you must first
execute:

oem_setup_env

To determine if your system is vulnerable, execute the following
command:

lslpp -L X11.Dt.ToolTalk

To verify the sums, use the text of this advisory as input to
csum or sha1sum. For example:

csum -h SHA1 -i Advisory.asc
sha1sum -c Advisory.asc

These sums should match exactly. The PGP signatures in the tar
file and on this advisory can also be used to verify the
integrity of the fixes. If the sums or signatures cannot be
confirmed, contact IBM AIX Security and describe the
discrepancy at the following address:

security-alert@austin.ibm.com

C. INTERIM FIX INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: If possible, it is recommended that a mksysb backup
of the system be created. Verify it is both bootable and
readable before proceeding.

Interim fixes have had limited functional and regression
testing but not the full regression testing that takes place
for Service Packs; thus, IBM does not warrant the fully
correct functionality of an interim fix.

Interim fix management documentation can be found at:

http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/sas/f/aix.efixmgmt/home.html

To preview an interim fix installation:

emgr -e ipkg_name -p # where ipkg_name is the name of the
# interim fix package being previewed.

To install an interim fix package:

emgr -e ipkg_name -X # where ipkg_name is the name of the
# interim fix package being installed.

IV. WORKAROUND

Remove the entry for rpc.ttdbserver from /etc/inetd.conf and
refresh inetd so that inetd will no longer run the program. This
can be done by running the following command:

chsubserver -r inetd -C /etc/inetd.conf -d -v ‘ttdbserver’ -p ‘tcp’

Any remaining instances of rpc.ttdbserver should be killed with
the following command:

ps -efl|grep [r]pc.ttdbserver|awk ‘{x = “kill ” $4}{system(x)}’

NOTE: Removing rpc.ttdbserver from /etc/inetd.conf will disable
some functionality for all users.

V. OBTAINING FIXES

AIX security fixes can be downloaded from:

or
ftp://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/security

AIX fixes can be downloaded from:

NOTE: Affected customers are urged to upgrade to the latest
applicable Technology Level and Service Pack.
