MiracleLinux 4 : luci-0.26.0-48.AXS4 (AXSA:2014-025:01)

high Nessus Plugin ID 290111

Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2014-025:01 advisory.

 The luci packages contain a web-based high-availability cluster configuration application.
 Security issues fixed with this release:
 CVE-2013-4481 Race condition in Luci 0.26.0 creates /var/lib/luci/etc/luci.ini with world-readable permissions before restricting the permissions, which allows local users to read the file and obtain sensitive information such as authentication secrets.
 CVE-2013-4482 Untrusted search path vulnerability in python-paste-script (aka paster) in Luci 0.26.0, when started using the initscript, allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse .egg-info file in the (1) current working directory or (2) its parent directories.
 Fixed bugs:
 Luci's capability to work with the full set of agents parameters has been restored. Configured fence device parameters that were previously discarded now work as expected: this includes parameters for cmd_prompt, login_timeout, power_timeout, retry_on, shell_timeout and delay.
 Luci's capability to work with the full set of fence devices. Previously, Dell iDRAC (idrac), HP iLO2 (ilo2), HP iLO3 (ilo3), and IBM Integrated Management Module (imm) devices or agents would not properly work, nor would a cluster comprising them.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected luci package.
