    | EnGarde Secure Linux Security Advisory November 22, 2002 |
    | http://www.engardelinux.org/ ESA-20021122-031 |
    | |
    | Packages: php, mod_php |
    | Summary: PHP upgrade. |
    +------------------------------------------------------------------------+

      EnGarde Secure Linux is a secure distribution of Linux that features
      improved access control, host and network intrusion detection, Web
      based secure remote management, e-commerce, and integrated open source
      security tools.

    OVERVIEW
    - --------
      This update upgrades PHP in EnGarde 1.0.1, 1.1, and 1.2 to version
      4.2.3.

      This update also fixes a recent vulnerability where a script could
      bypass safe mode restrictions.

    SOLUTION
    - --------
      Users of the EnGarde Professional edition can use the Guardian Digital
      Secure Network to update their systems automatically.

      EnGarde Community users should upgrade to the most recent version
      as outlined in this advisory. Updates may be obtained from:

        ftp://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
        http://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/

      Before upgrading the package, the machine must either:

        a) be booted into a "standard" kernel; or
        b) have LIDS disabled.

      To disable LIDS, execute the command:

        # /sbin/lidsadm -S -- -LIDS_GLOBAL

      To install the updated package, execute the command:

        # rpm -Uvh files

      You must now update the LIDS configuration by executing the command:

        # /usr/sbin/config_lids.pl

      To re-enable LIDS (if it was disabled), execute the command:

        # /sbin/lidsadm -S -- +LIDS_GLOBAL

      To verify the signatures of the updated packages, execute the command:

        # rpm -Kv files
