	Immunix OS Security Advisory

Packages updated:	ncurses
Effected products:	Immunix OS 6.2, Immunix OS 7.0-beta
Bugs Fixed:		immunix/1298
Date:			November 31, 2000
Advisory ID:		IMNX-2000-70-012-01
Author:			Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@wirex.com>

Description:
  A exploit was recently found by Jouko Pynnönen in the ncurses package
  that affected any setuid or setguid programs that use the ncurses
  library (see http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/138550 for more
  information.)

  From examining the vulnerable source code, we believe that
  StackGuard would stop this vulnerability.  However, since there is
  no public exploit, we have not confirmed that StackGuard protects
  against this problem (Immunix is build using the StackGuard
  compiler, and 7.0 beta adds the FormatGuard glibc library patch as
  well as the Openwall and SubDomain kernel patch.)

  Because of this, we are releasing updated versions of these packages
  for those people who want to upgrade their machines.  Packages have
  been created and released for both Immunix 6.2 and 7.0 beta.
