			SCO Security Advisory

Subject:		Linux: Apache mod_dav module format string vulnerability
Advisory number: 	CSSA-2003-007.0
Issue date: 		2003 February 17
Cross reference:
______________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description

	The Apache mod_dav module contains a format string
	vulnerability in the "ap_log_rerror()" function.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

	System				Package
	----------------------------------------------------------------------

	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server		prior to mod_dav-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm
					prior to mod_dav-devel-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm

	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation	prior to mod_dav-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm
					prior to mod_dav-devel-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm

	OpenLinux 3.1 Server		prior to mod_dav-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm
					prior to mod_dav-devel-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm

	OpenLinux 3.1 Workstation	prior to mod_dav-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm
					prior to mod_dav-devel-1.0.2_1.3.6-3.i386.rpm


3. Solution

	The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many
	customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater,
	called cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to
	update these packages rather than downloading and installing
	them by hand.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Just to clarify this a bit further, the mod_dav module for Apache is
not vulnerable to the format string vulnerability (as outlined in the
original advisory from SCO, CAN-2002-0842)

mod_dav contains code that logs various errors and uses
ap_log_rerror() to do so.  In mod_dav for Apache, ap_log_rerror is
never called with strings that can be influenced by a remote user.

Now Oracle added code to their version of mod_dav to log gateway
errors, but gateway errors contain strings that can be controlled by
a remote user.  Therefore Oracle was vulnerable to a format string
issue, but no base release of Apache with mod_dav was vulnerable.

We did some research this morning after SCO released their advisory.
According to their ftp site SCO shipped OpenLinux with a standard
copy of mod_dav which was not vulnerable to this format string issue.
Their advisory, CSSA-2003-007.0 referenced new packages where they
added a patch which, unfortunately, added in code to log of gateway
errors and contained a format string vulnerability.

Thanks, Mark
