Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: shadow-utils security and bug fix update

Notes

Topic

An updated shadow-utils package that fixes a security issue and several bugs is now available. This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

Details

The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, as well as programs for managing user and group accounts. A flaw was found in the useradd tool in shadow-utils. A new user's mailbox, when created, could have random permissions for a short period. This could allow a local attacker to read or modify the mailbox. (CVE-2006-1174) This update also fixes the following bugs: * shadow-utils debuginfo package was empty. * chage.1 and chage -l gave incorrect information about sp_inact. All users of shadow-utils are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains backported patches to resolve these issues.

Vulnerability from cvelistv5

Published

Modified

Severity ?

Summary

useradd in shadow-utils before 4.0.3, and possibly other versions before 4.0.8, does not provide a required argument to the open function when creating a new user mailbox, which causes the mailbox to be created with unpredictable permissions and possibly allows attackers to read or modify the mailbox.
