Vendor Statement

The following Nortel Networks Wireless products are potentially affected by the vulnerabilities identified in CERT Advisory CA-2003-12:

• SS7 IP Gateway.

Nortel Networks recommends disabling Sendmail as it is not used.

• Wireless Preside OAM&P Main Server.

Sendmail should not be disabled on these products.

The following Nortel Networks Enterprise Voice IVR products are potentially affected by the vulnerabilities identified in CERT Advisory CA-2003-12:

• MPS1000
• MPS500
• VPS
• CTX

All the above products deploy Sendmail; it should not be disabled on these products.

For all of the above products Nortel Networks recommends applying the latest Sun Microsystems patches in accordance with that vendor's recommendations. To avoid applying patches twice, please ensure that the Sun Microsystems patch applied also addresses the vulnerability identified in CERT Advisory CA-2003-07.

The following Nortel Networks Succession products are potentially affected by the vulnerability identified in CERT Advisory CA-2003-12:

• SSPFS-based CS2000 Management Tools
• GWC Element Manager and QoS Collector Application (QCA)

A product bulletin will be issued shortly.

Sendmail has been disabled in SN06 and therefore SN06 is not vulnerable. A patch for SN05 is currently under development that will disable Sendmail in SN05 so that it will not be affected by the vulnerability identified in CERT Advisory CA-2003-12. The availability date for the SN05 patch is still to be determined.

Package:             sendmail
Vulnerability:       remote root exploit
OpenPKG Specific:    no

Affected Releases:   Affected Packages:          Corrected Packages:
OpenPKG CURRENT      <= sendmail-8.12.8-20030328 >= sendmail-8.12.9-20030329
OpenPKG 1.2          <= sendmail-8.12.7-1.2.1    >= sendmail-8.12.7-1.2.2
OpenPKG 1.1          none                        N.A.

Dependent Packages:  none

Description:
 Michal Zalewski discovered [1] a confirmed [2] buffer overflow
 vulnerability in all version of the Sendmail [0] MTA earlier than
 8.12.9. The mail address parser performs insufficient bounds checking
 in certain conditions due to a "char" to "int" data type conversion,
 making it possible for an attacker to take control of the application.
 Attackers may remotely exploit this vulnerability to gain "root"
 access of any vulnerable Sendmail server. The Common Vulnerabilities
 and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2003-0161 [3] to the
 problem.

  Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
 -q sendmail". If you have the "sendmail" package installed and its
 version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
 upgrade it (see Solution). [4][5]

Solution:
 Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
 [6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7] or a mirror location,
 verify its integrity [8], build a corresponding binary RPM from it [4]
 and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM [5].
 For the current release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following operations
 to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases adjust
 accordingly).

  $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
 ftp> bin
 ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD
 ftp> get sendmail-8.12.7-1.2.2.src.rpm

______________________________________________________________________________

1)  problem description, brief discussion, solution, upgrade information

    sendmail is the most widely used mail transport agent (MTA) in the
    internet. A remotely exploitable buffer overflow has been found in all
    versions of sendmail that come with SuSE products. These versions include
    sendmail-8.11 and sendmail-8.12 releases. sendmail is the MTA subsystem
    that is installed by default on all SuSE products up to and including
    SuSE Linux 8.0 and the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7.

    The vulnerability was discovered by Michal Zalewski. It is not related
    to the vulnerability found by ISS in the first week of March as announced
    by SuSE Security in SuSE Security Announcement SuSE-SA:2003:013 (CERT
    Announcement ID CA-2003-07). The impact is believed to be a local root
    compromise with the possibility of a remote compromise. Even though
    the remote nature of the vulnerability is not confirmed, we believe that
    it is safe to assume that the vulnerability may be remotely exploitable.
    The nature of the flaw is a stack overflow in a function that is called
    frequently throughout the sendmail source code. The function is used for
    processing email addresses.

    There is no known workaround for this vulnerability other than using a
    different MTA. The vulnerability is triggered by an email message sent
    through the sendmail MTA subsystem. In that respect, it is different
    from commonly known bugs that occur in the context of an open TCP
    connection. By consequence, the vulnerability also exists if email
    messages get forwarded over a relay that itself does not run a vulnerable
    MTA. This specific detail and the wide distribution of sendmail in the
    internet causes this vulnerability to be considered a flaw of major
    severity. We recommend to install the update packages that are provided
    for download at the locations listed below.

    Please download the update package for your distribution and verify its
    integrity by the methods listed in section 3) of this announcement.
    Then, install the package using the command "rpm -Fhv file.rpm" to apply
    the update.
    Our maintenance customers are being notified individually. The packages
    are being offered to install from the maintenance web.

    SPECIAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
    ==============================
    After performing the update, it is necessary to restart all running
    instances of sendmail using the command "rcsendmail restart" as root.

2)  Pending vulnerabilities in SuSE Distributions and Workarounds:

    - glibc
      SuSE Security is working on glibc updates for the RPC XDR integer overflow
      security problem in glibc. The central function of the glibc package in a
      Linux system requires extensive testing of the update packages. The update
      packages will be provided for download at the usual location and
      publically announced as soon as the testing is completed successfully.

    - vnc
      VNC (Virtual Network Computing) uses a weak cookie generation process
      which can be exploited by an attacker to bypass authentication.
      New packages are currently being tested and will be available on our
      FTP servers soon.

    - openssl
      A paper regarding remote timing attacks against OpenSSL has been
      published by researchers of the Stanford University. It is possible
      to extract the private RSA key used by services using OpenSSL by
      observing their timing behavior. Fixed packages will be available
      on our FTP servers soon.

3)  standard appendix: authenticity verification, additional information

  - Package authenticity verification:

    SuSE update packages are available on many mirror ftp servers all over
    the world. While this service is being considered valuable and important
    to the free and open source software community, many users wish to be
    sure about the origin of the package and its content before installing
    the package. There are two verification methods that can be used
    independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded
    file or rpm package:
    1) md5sums as provided in the (cryptographically signed) announcement.
    2) using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package.

    1) execute the command
        md5sum <name-of-the-file.rpm>
       after you downloaded the file from a SuSE ftp server or its mirrors.
       Then, compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the
       announcement. Since the announcement containing the checksums is
       cryptographically signed (usually using the key security@suse.de),
       the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package.
       We disrecommend to subscribe to security lists which cause the
       email message containing the announcement to be modified so that
       the signature does not match after transport through the mailing
       list software.
       Downsides: You must be able to verify the authenticity of the
       announcement in the first place. If RPM packages are being rebuilt
       and a new version of a package is published on the ftp server, all
       md5 sums for the files are useless.

    2) rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity
       of an rpm package. Use the command
        rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>
       to verify the signature of the package, where <file.rpm> is the
       filename of the rpm package that you have downloaded. Of course,
       package authenticity verification can only target an un-installed rpm
       package file.
       Prerequisites:
        a) gpg is installed
        b) The package is signed using a certain key. The public part of this
           key must be installed by the gpg program in the directory
           ~/.gnupg/ under the user's home directory who performs the
           signature verification (usually root). You can import the key
           that is used by SuSE in rpm packages for SuSE Linux by saving
           this announcement to a file ("announcement.txt") and
           running the command (do "su -" to be root):
            gpg --batch; gpg < announcement.txt | gpg --import
           SuSE Linux distributions version 7.1 and thereafter install the
           key "build@suse.de" upon installation or upgrade, provided that
           the package gpg is installed. The file containing the public key
           is placed at the top-level directory of the first CD (pubring.gpg)
           and at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/pubring.gpg-build.suse.de .
