Package: cvs
Vulnerability: multiple remote compromises
OpenPKG Specific: no
Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
OpenPKG CURRENT <= cvs-1.12.8-20040607>= cvs-1.12.9-20040609
OpenPKG 2.0 <= cvs-1.12.5-2.0.2>= cvs-1.12.5-2.0.3

Affected Releases: Dependent Packages: none
Description:
According to an e-matters Security Advisory [0] multiple
vulnerabilities exist in the Concurrent Versions System (CVS) [1].
Derek Price, Stefan Esser and Sebastian Krahmer discovered and fixed
several security issues. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
(CVE) project assigned the ids CAN-2004-0414 [2], CAN-2004-0416 [3],
CAN-2004-0417 [4] and CAN-2004-0418 [5] to the problems.
Please check whether you are affected by running "/bin/rpm -q
cvs". If you have the "cvs" package installed and its version is
affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade
it (see Solution). [6][7]
Solution:
Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
[8][9], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [10][11] or a mirror
location, verify its integrity [12], build a corresponding binary RPM
from it [6] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
binary RPM [7]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.0, perform the
following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
other releases adjust accordingly).
$ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
ftp> bin
ftp> cd release/2.0/UPD
ftp> get cvs-1.12.5-2.0.3.src.rpm
ftp> bye
$ /bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig cvs-1.12.5-2.0.3.src.rpm
$ /bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild cvs-1.12.5-2.0.3.src.rpm
$ su -
# /bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh /RPM/PKG/cvs-1.12.5-2.0.3.*.rpm
