                   Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated xinetd package available for Red Hat Linux 7 and 7.1
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2001:075-04
Issue date:        2001-06-04
Updated on:        2001-06-05
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          xinetd umask 2.4 kernel linuxconf
Cross references:  
Obsoletes:         
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

Xinetd runs with umask 0 - this means that applications using the
xinetd umask and not setting the permissions themselves (like swat
from the samba package), will create world writable files.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386

Red Hat Linux 7.1 - i386

3. Problem description:

Xinetd runs with umask 0 - this means that applications using the
xinetd umask and not setting the permissions themselves (like swat
from the samba package), will create world writable files. This
update sets the default umask to 022. Also, the web interface for
linuxconf did not work in Red Hat Linux 7.1. Other minor issues have
also been addressed.

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.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

38669 - /etc/xinetd.d/*-udp files syntax error on
23560 - xinetd - linuxconf-web still not fixed
