1. Are You Infected? Detecting Malware Infection
By Jong Purisima

Once executed, malware can perform its intended malicious function on a
system. Unfortunately, it may not always be apparent to users that their
system is indeed infected. This article will discuss how to determine
whether or not the system has been infected and will offer some tips on to
manually disinfect the system.

2. Forensics on the Windows Platform, Part Two
by Jamie Morris

This is the second of a two-part series of articles discussing the use of
computer forensics in the examination of Windows-based computers. In Part
One we discussed the wider legal issues raised by computer forensics and
the benefits of pre-investigation preparation. In this article we will
concentrate on the areas of a Windows file system that are likely to be of
most interest to forensic investigators and the software tools that can be
used to carry out an investigation.

II. BUGTRAQ SUMMARY
-------------------
1. W3M Frame Enabled Browsing Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6793
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 07 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6793
Summary:

W3M is a text-based Web browser. It is developed for several platforms
including Linux and Unix variant operating systems.

A cross site scripting vulnerability has been reported for W3M if frames
support is enabled. Due to inadequate sanitization of some HTML tags, it
is possible for an attacker to steal another user's cookie information or
other sensitive data. Specifically, W3M does not fully sanitize malicious
HTML code from FRAME tags.

It should be noted that this vulnerability is exploitable only if W3M is
executed with the '-F' commandline option.

This vulnerability has been reported to affect W3M 0.3.2. It is likely
that earlier versions are affected.

2. W3M Image Attribute Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6794
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 07 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:

This vulnerability has been reported to affect W3M 0.3.2.2 and earlier.

3. HPUX Wall Message Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6800
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 07 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6800
Summary:

wall is an application used to broadcast a message to all of the users on
a local system.

It has been reported that the HPUX wall executable may be prone to a
buffer overflow condition.

This issue is due to insufficient bounds checking of broadcast messages.
When wall receives a message redirected from a file, that contains an
excessive amount of data it becomes unstable. It has been reported that
this vulnerability can be reproduced by redirecting a file containing
greater than 9000 bytes to a vulnerable version of wall, which may cause
sensitive regions of memory to be corrupted with attacker-supplied values.

It is possible that this vulnerability is an exploitable buffer overflow,
and could result in the execution of attacker-supplied code. Any code
executed would be in the security context of the wall process.

4. Red Hat Linux User Mode Linux SetUID Installation Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6801
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 07 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6801
Summary:

Red Hat Linux is a freely available, open source operating system
distributed by Red Hat Incorporated.

A problem with a component of the kernel-utils package may make it
possible for local users to perform unauthorized activities.

It has been reported that under some circumstances, Red Hat Linux may
allow unauthorized actions through User-Mode-Linux compatibility.  Due to
permissions on some components installed with the User-Mode-Linux
utilities, a local user could perform actions on the system that require
privilege, potentially affecting local host security.

The problem is in the setuid bit given to the uml_net program.  When
installed with the kernel-utils package, the program is installed setuid
root.  A local user could execute this program to control network
interfaces, or manipulate some network settings.

5. WinZip File Encryption Scheme Limited Key Space Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6805
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 08 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6805
Summary:

Winzip is a commercially-available file compression utility maintained and
distributed by WinZip Computing, Inc.

A problem with WinZip may make possible successful brute force attacks
against files compressed and encrypted with WinZip.

A problem has been reported in the encryption scheme used with WinZip
files.  Due to a problem in the algorithm used to password-protect files
in WinZip, the encrypted key space may be reduced.  This could increase
the chances of a brute force attack to decrypt files compressed and
encrypted with WinZip.

The problem is in the seeding.  Because of a programming error, seeding
used by the program is reduced from a usual 2^(12*8) number of
possibilities to a total of 2^(3*8) possibilites.  This reduces the
resources required to successfully test the entire encrypted key space,
and could lead to the successful decrypting of WinZip files.

6. Gupta SQLBase EXECUTE Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6808
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6808
Summary:

Gupta SQLBase is an embedded SQL Database designed for use with Microsoft
Windows and Novell Netware environments.

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been reported for SQLBase when using
the EXECUTE command. This command is used by the database to execute a
stored command or procedure.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by issuing an EXECUTE command
with an overly large value, consisting of at least 700 characters, as a
parameter. This will cause SQLBase to crash and may result in the
execution of attacker-supplied code with elevated privileges.

This vulnerability is exacerbated by the fact that the SYSADM account
allows access with a blank password for the default ISLAND database.

This vulnerability was reported for SQLBase 8.1.0. It is not known whether
earlier versions are affected.

7. Netgear FM114P Wireless Firewall File Disclosure Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6807
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6807
Summary:

Netgear FM114P Cable/DSL Prosafe 802.11b Wireless Firewall is a hardware
appliance that can allow several systems to share a single broadband
Internet connection. The device also includes a firewall and is managed
through a web interface.

A directory traversal vulnerability exists in the FM114P's web
administration interface.

The firewall does not properly sanitize URL requests.  Starting from the
upnp/service directory on the firewall, it is possible for an
unauthenticated user to traverse out of this directory using escaped
character sequences.  Submitting the following request to the firewall
would retrieve the configuration file:
http://<ip-or-hostname>:<port>/upnp/service/%2e%2e%2fnetgear.cfg

This could allow an unauthenticated user to retrieve the firewall's
configuration file and possibly other sensitive information.

This vulnerability was reported to affect firmware version 1.4 Beta 17.
Other versions may also be affected.

8. Nethack Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6806
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6806
Summary:

Nethack is a game included with several distributions of Linux including
RedHat Linux. It has been reported that Nethack fails to drop privileges,
potentially resulting in privilege escalation.

A buffer overflow has been discovered in Nethack when invoked with the
'-s' command line option. By passing an overly large string, consisting of
at least 1000 characters, to the '-s' command line option of
/usr/games/lib/nethackdir/nethack, it is possible to corrupt memory.

By exploiting this issue it may be possible for an attacker to overwrite
values in sensitive areas of memory, resulting in the execution of
arbitrary attacker-supplied code.

Nethack distributed with RedHat Linux is shipped with setgid 'games'
privileges. Successful exploitation would result in the escalation of
privileges to the 'games' group, which could result in the corruption of
saved game data, as well as storage consumption.

9. CryptoBuddy Predictable Encrypted Passphrase Weakness
BugTraq ID: 6810
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6810
Summary:

CryptoBuddy is security software designed to encrypt files. It is designed
for use on Microsoft Windows operating systems.

It has been reported that the passphrase encryption algorithm employed by
CryptoBuddy is weak. Specifically, the passphrase is broken into 4-byte
blocks and then encrypted. Furthermore, the encryption algorithm used
generates predictable ciphertext for specific 4-byte sequence of
characters.

An attacker can exploit this weakness to build a dictionary of encrypted
passphrases and use this to decrypt stolen files.

This vulnerability was reported for CryptoBuddy 1.2 and earlier.

10. Opera Username URI Warning Dialog Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6811
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6811
Summary:

Opera is a web client available for a number of platforms including Unix
and Linux variants, and Microsoft Windows operating systems.

For security purposes, Opera will display a warning any time a user of the
client visits a link containing a username as part of the URI.  Bounds
checking is not performed on the length of the username when it is copied
into a local buffer for display in the warning message.

An excessively long username in a link will trigger a buffer overflow
condition that may overwrite the stack frame of the affected function.
Attackers may exploit this vulnerability to execute instructions on client
systems.  This condition may be exploited from a malicious webpage.
Exploitation may occur through links, image tags, frames or other means.

This issue was reported for Opera on Microsoft Windows platforms.  It is not known if other platforms are affected.

11. Gallery Insecure File Permissions Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6809
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6809
Summary:

Gallery is a web based photo album written using PHP. Gallery is used to
create and maintain albums of photos via a web-based interface.

A problem has been reported in the Gallery application. When creating
'temp' and 'albums' directories and managing image files, Gallery uses
unsafe file permissions. Specifically, Gallery creates these folders with
the same group and owner permissions of the web server.

As a result anyone who may have access to local web server resources may
gain access to other users' Gallery albums.

This vulnerability could lead to local users obtaining unauthorized access
to sensitive files by causing the web server to execute a malicious
script.

This vulnerability was reported for Gallery version 1.3.3. It is not known
if earlier versions are affected by this vulnerability.

12. CryptoBuddy Unused Encryption Passphrase Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6812
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6812
Summary:

CryptoBuddy is security software designed to encrypt files. It is designed
for use on the Microsoft Windows operating environment.

A vulnerability has been reported for CryptoBuddy that may result in
attackers intercepting and decoding encrypted information. The
vulnerability exists because CryptoBuddy does not use the user-supplied
passphrase to encrypt files. Instead, the passphrase is encrypted and
stored at a known offset in the encrypted file.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by creating an encrypted file
and passphrase. By copying the encrypted passphrase at offset 0x120 to
0x15A to the same offset of any intercepted file, an attacker may be able
to decrypt the target file using the modified passphrase.

Exploitation of this vulnerability may result in the disclosure of
sensitive information. Any information obtained in this manner may be used
by an attacker to launch other attacks on a vulnerable system or user.

Although it has not been confirmed, it is likely that the user-supplied
passphrase stored in the file is prompted for and used to initiate the
decryption of the file using the CryptoBuddy algorithm.

This vulnerability was reported for CryptoBuddy 1.2 and earlier.

13. CryptoBuddy Long Passphrase Truncation Weakness
BugTraq ID: 6815
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6815
Summary:

CryptoBuddy is security software designed to encrypt files. It is designed
for use on Microsoft Windows operating systems.

It has been reported that CryptoBuddy will truncate passphrases over 55
characters in length. Furthermore, bytes 53 to 55 of the passphrase are
stored in plain text. This weakness employed by the encryption algorithm
of CryptoBuddy may result in a user having a false sense of security.

This vulnerability was reported for CryptoBuddy 1.2 and earlier.

14. Opera opera.PluginContext Native Method Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6814
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6814
Summary:

Opera is a web client available for a number of platforms including Unix
and Linux variants, and Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Opera ships with a trusted Java class ('opera.PluginContext') that
includes a native method that is reportedly vulnerable to a buffer
overflow condition.  This issue exists in the 'showDocument' method of the
'opera.PluginContext' class.  If a URL object containing a URL String of
excessive length is passed to the method, the JVM and browser will crash.
This may be due to a buffer overflow condition in the native method
(native methods can be written in C).

This issue was reported in versions of Opera for Microsoft Windows
operating systems.  It is not known if other platforms are also affected.
Java support must enabled for this issue to be present and can be disabled
to prevent attacks.

15. Eset Software NOD32 Antivirus Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6803
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 10 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6803
Summary:

Eset Software's NOD32 Antivirus System is a cross-platform anti-virus
application. It is available for a variety of platforms including the
Microsoft Windows, Linux, and BSD-derived operating systems.

A vulnerability has been discovered in NOD32 for the Linux and Unix
platforms. Due to insufficient bounds checking a buffer overflow occurs
when NOD32 processes file system paths of excessive length. Specifically,
a path name containing 500, or more, bytes of data will trigger memory
corruption.

This vulnerability could be exploited by coaxing a user to scan a
malicious location with the NOD32 Antivirus software. When the path of
excessive length is processed by NOD32, sensitive memory will be
corrupted. By exploiting this issue to execute code it is possible run
arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running NOD32.

This issue affects NOD32 versions 1.012 and earlier.

16. Alt-N MDaemon/WorldClient Form2Raw Mail Header Spoofing Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6816
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 07 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6816
Summary:

MDaemon is a mail server for Microsoft Windows operating systems.  It
includes WorldClient, which is a web-based email client.

Alt-N MDaemon/Worldclient is prone to a vulnerability which may enable a
remote user to send mail with spoofed headers.

The WorldClient component of MDaemon contains a utility, 'Form2Raw.exe',
which may be used to construct email from data submitted in a form.
Remote users may submit a malicious form through the 'Form2Raw.exe'
utility (accessible from the web through the 'Form2Raw.cgi' alias), which
will cause mail with attacker-supplied headers to be sent via the mail
server.  Access to this utility is enabled in the default configuration.

As a result, the software may be abused by unauthorized users to send
email to arbitrary hosts.  Spammers may potentially exploit this issue to
obscure the origin of a mass mailing.

17. Cedric Email Reader Global Configuration Script Remote File Include Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6820
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 09 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6820
Summary:

Cedric Email Reader is a web mail application. It is implemented in PHP
and available for Unix and Linux variants as well as Microsoft Windows
operating systems.

It has been reported that Cedric Email Reader is prone to an issue that
may allow remote attackers to include files located on remote servers.
This issue is present in the 'emailreader_execute_on_each_page.inc.php'
script.

Under some circumstances, it is possible for remote attackers to influence
the include path for a configuration file to point to an external file on
a remote server.  The attacker may cause this to occur by submitting a
path to an external file as the '$emailreader_ini' URI parameter.

If the remote file is a PHP script, this may be exploited to execute
arbitrary system commands in the context of the web server.

It has also been reported that it is possible to cause local files to be
included, resulting in disclosure of webserver readable files to the
attacker.  This has not been confirmed.

18. Cedric Email Reader Skin Configuration Script Remote File Include Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6818
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 09 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6818
Summary:

Cedric Email Reader is a web mail application. It is implemented in PHP
and available for Unix and Linux variants as well as Microsoft Windows
operating systems.

It has been reported that Cedric Email Reader is prone to an issue that
may allow remote attackers to include files located on remote servers.
This issue is present in the 'email.php' script.

Under some circumstances, it is possible for remote attackers to influence
the include path for a configuration file to point to an external file on
a remote server.  The attacker may cause this to occur by submitting a
path to an external file as the '$cer_skin' URI parameter.

If the remote file is a PHP script, this may be exploited to execute
arbitrary system commands in the context of the web server.

It has also been reported that it is possible to cause local files to be
included, resulting in disclosure of webserver readable files to the
attacker.  This has not been confirmed.

19. RARLAB FAR File Manager Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6822
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 11 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6822
Summary:

FAR is a file manager developed for Microsoft Windows environments. It is
developed by RARLAB.

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been reported for FAR that may result
in a denial of service condition. The vulnerability exists due to
insufficient bounds checking performed by FAR when parsing directory
paths. Specifically, when FAR attempts to parse paths consisting of more
than 260 characters it will crash.

A local attacker can exploit this vulnerability by nesting several folders
such that the total length is greater than 260 characters. When an
unsuspecting victim user attempts to view the contents of these folders,
the buffer overflow condition is triggered and will result in FAR
crashing.

20. Cisco IOS ICMP Redirect Routing Table Modification Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6823
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 11 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6823
Summary:

Internet Operating System (IOS) is the firmware used on Cisco routers. It
is distributed and maintained by Cisco.

It has been reported that it is possible to make arbitrary remote
modifications to the Cisco IOS routing table.

If IP routing is disabled on a vulnerable router, the router will accept
malicious ICMP redirect packets and modify its routing table accordingly.
ICMP redirect messages are normally sent to indicate inefficient routing,
a new route or a routing change. An attacker may specify a default gateway
on the local network that does not exist this would effectively deny
service to any destination that is outside the local subnet.  This
vulnerability requires that IP routing be explicitly disabled on the
system using an affected version of Cisco IOS, thus making the router a
host on the network.

The attacker may also intercept network data by making routing table
modifications to redirect network communications through the attacker's
machine.

21. Ericsson HM220dp DSL Modem World Accessible Web Administration Interface Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6824
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 11 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6824
Summary:

The Ericsson HM220dp DSL Modem is a broadband modem used in homes and
small office environments.

The modem uses a web interface to allow remote administration and
configuration.  This interface does not require users to authenticate in
any way in order to access it.  The modem also does not allow users to
enable any form of authentication.

Remote attackers may connect to the interface and change configuration
settings to render the modem unusable until it is reset or reconfigured.

22. APC apcupsd Client Syslog Format String Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6828
Remote: Unknown
Date Published: Feb 11 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6828
Summary:

Apcupsd provides UPS power management under Linux and BSD systems for APC
Products.

A vulnerability has been reported for apcupsd client that may result in an
attacker obtaining elevated privileges on the vulnerable system.

The 'log_event' function in 'apclog.c' contains an insecure instance of a
syslog() call. Due to this programming error, it may be possible to
exploit a format string vulnerability in the apcupsd 'log_event' function.

When the program is invoked using the vulnerable function, it may be
possible to exploit a format string vulnerability through the generation
of a malicious log event that contains attacker-supplied format strings.
In the event that this vulnerability is exploited, an attacker could cause
arbitrary locations in memory to be corrupted with attacker-specified data
and execute code with the privileges of the apcupsd user.

23. Microsoft Windows NT/2000 cmd.exe CD Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6829
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 11 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6829
Summary:

Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 use cmd.exe as their command
interpreter.

There are reported problems in the Windows API that prevent paths
containing more than 256 characters from being handled properly.  The cd
command in the command interpreter cmd.exe fails to handle these long
paths properly, resulting in a denial of service to the cmd.exe session,
or potential code execution.

On Windows NT 4.0 systems, if the cd command was issued to change to a
directory whose name contained 200 characters (ie. C:\<200 A's>), followed
by another cd command to change to a subdirectory containing 57 or more
characters (ie. C:\<200 A's>\<57 B's>), cmd.exe would fail.  This is
reportedly caused by overflowing a buffer when the second cd command is
issued.  EIP may be overwritten, potentially allowing for code execution.

On Windows 2000 systems, using the cd command to change to the second
directory would cause cmd.exe to become 'jailed' in that directory.
Using the cd command (ie. cd..) will not be able to change the directory.

Automated scripts that traverse and preform operations on arbitrary
directories are particularly vulnerable.

24. CGI Lite Perl Module Metacharacter Input Validation Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6833
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 11 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6833
Summary:

CGI Lite is a freely available Perl module that is used to decode form and
query information, including file uploads and cookies.

A vulnerability has been reported in the escape_dangerous_chars()
function, which is a part of the CGI Lite Perl module.

The function does not sufficiently sanitize all instances of potentially
dangerous characters. As the end result, externally supplied input may not
be adequately sanitized before being used in other Perl functions. This
will create a false sense of security and may allow an attacker to execute
arbitrary commands via a CGI program which depends on the vulnerable
function.

The following characters are not sanitized by the function:

\, ?, ~, ^, \n, \r

If the function is used as part of a CGI application to sanitize
externally supplied input before passing it to Perl functions such as
system() or open(), it may be possible to execute commands on the
underlying shell of the host. It should be noted that these other
functions would need to be called in an unsafe manner for this issue to be
exploited.

Commands executed as a consequence of exploiting this issue will be in the
context of the webserver process.

25. HP-UX landiag/lanadmin Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6834
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 12 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6834
Summary:

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been reported for two utilities
shipped with HP-UX systems. The vulnerabilities exist in the landiag and
lanadmin programs.

The /usr/sbin/lanadmin program obsoletes the /usr/sbin/landiag program in
newer versions of HP-UX systems. Both programs are used by administrators
to administer and test LAN settings for network interface cards.

Although unconfirmed, a local attacker may be able to exploit these
vulnerabilities to execute malicious attacker-supplied code with elevated
privileges.

It should be noted that both the landiag and lanadmin programs are setuid
binaries.

The precise technical nature of these vulnerabilities are currently
unknown and this BID will be updated when further information is
available.

26. HP-UX rpc.yppasswd Unspecified Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6835
Remote: Yes
Date Published: Feb 12 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6835
Summary:

The implementation of rpc.yppasswd included with HP-UX may be prone to a
buffer overflow vulnerability.

Exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a denial of service
condition. As the rpc.yppasswd service is typically run with superuser
privileges, this issue may be leveraged to obtain unauthorized privileged
access.

The precise nature of this vulnerability is currently unknown however,
this issue may be closely related to the vulnerability described in BID
2763. This BID will be updated as further information becomes available.

27. HP-UX stmkfont Unspecified Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6836
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 12 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6836
Summary:

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been reported in the stmkfont utility
shipped with HP-UX systems. The utility, stmkfont, is a compiler designed
to generate X and PCL fonts.

This utility has been obsoleted by the fstobdf utility in newer versions
of HP-UX systems.

This vulnerability is also exacerbated by the fact that the stmkfont
utility is a setuid binary. Although unconfirmed, this vulnerability may
be exploited by an attacker to execute code with elevated privileges.

The precise technical nature of this vulnerability is currently unknown
and this BID will be updated as further information becomes available.

28. HP-UX rs.F3000 Unspecified Unauthorized Access Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 6837
Remote: No
Date Published: Feb 12 2003 12:00AM
Relevant URL:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6837
Summary:

The rs.F3000 binary is prone to an issue that may allow attackers to
obtain unauthorized access to a vulnerable system. The issue may also be
exploited to cause a denial of service condition.

The issue with /usr/lib/X11/Xserver/ucode/screens/hp/rs.F3000 may result
due to some permissions bits being set incorrectly. Exploitation of this
vulnerability may result in the attacker obtaining privileges of the
'daemon' account.

Precise technical details of this issue are currently unknown. This BID
will be updated as more information becomes available.
