Reviewing the Gentoo advisory GLSA 200503-14 [0] which refers to
CAN-2005-0365 I've checked out to see if our dcopidlng script was
vulnerable to the symlink attack found by Davide Madrisan even though it=20
does not use /tmp (that's why I'm setting this bug as 'normal' severity=20
instead of as 'important')
It seems ours (see version above) is not because the temporary file is=20
created in the local directory (instead of in /tmp) directly, however, the=
=20
creation does provide a way for a race condition.
I think the attached patch is a better fix for this issue than the one=20
provided by Gentoo [1]. There are several bugs in Gentoo's fix:
1- The file is removed twice (once in the trap and once at the end of the=
=20
fix)
2- Leaving temporary files in the home directory might not be good. Mktemp=
=20
-t is better since users can set their TMPDIR environment variable to point=
=20
to "/home/user/tmp" if they want to, but users without a home directory=20
(think chroot) will work in any case (failsback to /tmp)
3- The temporafy file is still being create in an unsafe way (but in a safe=
=20
directory), mktemp does this better
So, please use the attached patch (and maybe forward it upstream) for a=20
next release.
Regards
Javier

Closes: 296240 298308 298533 298615
Changes:
kdelibs (4:3.3.2-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Improve the fix for CAN-2005-0365 ("insecure temporary file
creation") with a patch provided by Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña:
now mktemp is used, previously the temporary file was still created
in an unsafe way, although in a safe directory. (Closes: #298533)
.
* KDE_3_3_BRANCH update, with several improvements for the IDN situation:
- matches SSL certificates based on the punycode version of the hostname.
- some TLDs are whitelisted and IDN domains will be resolved for them.
These are, by default: at, ch, cn, de, dk, kr, jp, li, no, se, tw.
The KDE_USE_IDN environment variable can be set to a colon-separated
list of TLDs to override this default, so if empty IDN will be disabled.
.
* Backport small patch from KDE 3.4 to prevent kate from printing lots of
assertion failures to stderr when editing a long line. (Closes: #298308)
.
* Backport small patch from KDE 3.4 to make KSpell search for dictionaries
in /usr/lib/aspell-0.6, which is now used by Aspell. (Closes: #296240)
.
* As OpenOffice.org 1.1.3 will enter testing together with this version of
kdelibs, re-add to kdelibs-data the template .desktop files removed in
3.3.2-1. Replace openoffice.org-mimelnk (<< 1.1.3), but don't conflict.
.
* This upload will get built with a non-broken gcc version in mipsel,
and thus closes: #298615.
