Debian Security Advisory DSA 152-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
August 13th, 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : l2tpd
Vulnerability : missing random seed
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
Current versions of l2tpd, a layer 2 tunneling client/server program,
forgot to initialize the random generator which made it vulnerable
since all generated random number were 100% guessable. When dealing
with the size of the value in an attribute value pair, too many bytes
were able to be copied, which could lead into the vendor field being
overwritten.
These problems have been fixed in version 0.67-1.1 for the current
stable distribution (woody) and in version 0.68-1 for the unstable
distribution (sid). The old stable distribution (potato) is not
affected, since it doesn't contain the l2tpd package.
We recommend that you upgrade your l2tpd packages.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:
apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages
You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
