Date: December 08, 2016
Bugs: #591456
ID: 201612-25
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
Synopsis
========
A vulnerability in CrackLib could lead to the execution of arbitrary
code.
Background
==========
CrackLib is a library used to enforce strong passwords by comparing
user selected passwords to words in chosen word lists.
Affected packages
=================
——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 sys-libs/cracklib < 2.9.6-r1 >= 2.9.6-r1
Description
===========
A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the FascistGecosUser
function of lib/fascist.c.
Impact
======
A local attacker could set a specially crafted GECOS field value in
“/etc/passwd”; possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code
with the privileges of the process, a Denial of Service condition, or
the escalation of privileges.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All CrackLib users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=sys-libs/cracklib-2.9.6-r1”
