                Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________

Package name:           libgtop
Date:                   December 19th, 2001
Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2001:094

Affected versions:      7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 8.1, Corporate Server 1.0.1
________________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

 A remote format string vulnerability was found in the libgtop daemon by
 Laboratory intexxia.  By sending a specially crafted format string to
 the server, a remote attacker could potentially execute arbitrary code
 on the remote system with the daemon's permissions.  By default libgtop
 runs as the user nobody, but the flaw could be used to compromise local
 system security by allowing the attacker to exploit other local
 vulnerabilities.  A buffer overflow was also found by Flavio Veloso
 which could allow the client to execute code on the server.  Both
 vulnerabilities are patched in this update and will be fixed upstream
 in version 1.0.14.  libgtop_daemon is not invoked by default anywhere
 in Mandrake Linux.
