_______________________________________________________________________

Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________

Package name: shorewall
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:080
Date: August 9th, 2004

Affected versions: 10.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
Multi Network Firewall 8.2
______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

The shorewall package has a vulnerability when creating temporary files and directories, which could allow non-root users to overwrite arbitrary files on the system. The updated packages are patched to fix the problem.

As well, for Mandrakelinux 10.0, the updated packages have been fixed to start shorewall after the network, rather than before.

After updating the package, if shorewall was previously running, you may need to issue a "service shorewall restart".
