For general information regarding FreeBSD Errata Notices and Security
|
|
Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security
|
|
branches, and the following sections, please visit
|
|
<URL:https://security.freebsd.org/>.
|
|
|
|
I. Background
|
|
|
|
The pw(8) utility is used to create, remove, modify, and display system
|
|
users and groups.
|
|
|
|
II. Problem Description
|
|
|
|
The pw(8) utility will fail to create users and groups that only contain
|
|
numeric values [0-9].
|
|
|
|
III. Impact
|
|
|
|
An attempt to create a user or group containing only numeric values will
|
|
fail.
|
|
|
|
IV. Workaround
|
|
|
|
No workaround is available, but systems configured to create users or groups
|
|
that do not contain numeric-only names are not affected.
|
|
|
|
V. Solution
|
|
|
|
Perform one of the following:
|
|
|
|
1) Upgrade your system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security
|
|
branch (releng) dated after the correction date.
|
|
|
|
2) To update your present 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
|
|
|
|
3) To update your present 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 https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/EN-15:16/pw.patch
|
|
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/EN-15:16/pw.patch.asc
|
|
# gpg --verify pw.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:https://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/makeworld.html>.
|
|
|
|
A reboot of the running system is not necessary after installing the updated
|
|
pw(8) utility.
|
|
|
|
VI. Correction details
|
|
|
|

|
|
