    GENTOO LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 200304-09
    - - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------

              PACKAGE : mgetty
              SUMMARY : buffer overflow, insecure spool dir
                 DATE : 2003-04-28 10:17 UTC
              EXPLOIT : remote
    VERSIONS AFFECTED : <mgetty-1.1.29
        FIXED VERSION : >=mgetty-1.1.29
                  CVE : CAN-2002-1391 CAN-2002-1392

    - - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    * faxspool in mgetty before 1.1.29 uses a world-writable spool directory
      for outgoing faxes, which allows local users to modify fax transmission
      privileges.

    * Buffer overflow in cnd-program for mgetty before 1.1.29 allows remote
      attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary
      code via a Caller ID string with a long CallerName argument.

    SOLUTION

    It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running
    net-dialup/mgetty upgrade to mgetty-1.1.30 as follows:

    emerge sync
    emerge mgetty
    emerge clean
