For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
|
|
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
|
|
following sections, please visit <URL:http://security.FreeBSD.org/>.
|
|
|
|
I. Background
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD includes sendmail(8), a general purpose internetwork mail
|
|
routing facility, as the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA).
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD uses file descriptor as an abstract indicator for accessing a file.
|
|
Upon execve(2), file descriptors open in the calling process image remain
|
|
open in the new process image, except for those for which the close-on-exec
|
|
flag is set.
|
|
|
|
II. Problem Description
|
|
|
|
There is a programming error in sendmail(8) that prevented open file
|
|
descriptors have close-on-exec properly set. Consequently a subprocess
|
|
will be able to access all open files that the parent process have open.
|
|
|
|
III. Impact
|
|
|
|
A local user who can execute their own program for mail delivery will be
|
|
able to interfere with an open SMTP connection.
|
|
|
|
IV. Workaround
|
|
|
|
Do not allow untrusted users to specify programs for mail delivery, for
|
|
instance, procmail.
|
|
|
|
Systems that do not use sendmail(8) MTA are not affected.
|
|
|
|
V. Solution
|
|
|
|
Perform one of the following:
|
|
|
|
1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or
|
|
release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date.
|
|
|
|
2) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch:
|
|
|
|
The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable
|
|
FreeBSD release branches.
|
|
|
|
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
|
|
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
|
|
|
|
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-14:11/sendmail.patch
|
|
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-14:11/sendmail.patch.asc
|
|
# gpg --verify sendmail.patch.asc
|
|
|
|
b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root:
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr/src
|
|
# patch < /path/to/patch
|
|
|
|
c) Recompile the operating system using buildworld and installworld as
|
|
described in <URL:http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/makeworld.html>.
|
|
|
|
Restart the applicable daemons, or reboot the system.
|
|
|
|
3) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch:
|
|
|
|
Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64
|
|
platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility:
|
|
|
|
# freebsd-update fetch
|
|
# freebsd-update install
|
|
|
|
