Synopsis
sendmail security update
Type/Severity
Security Advisory: Important
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated sendmail packages are now available to fix a denial of service
security issue.
This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.
[Updated 27 June 2006]
The sendmail-docs packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 have been updated
to the correct version and release.
Description
Sendmail is a Mail Transport Agent (MTA) used to send mail between machines.
A flaw in the handling of multi-part MIME messages was discovered in
Sendmail. A remote attacker could create a carefully crafted message that
could crash the sendmail process during delivery (CVE-2006-1173). By
default on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Sendmail is configured to only accept
connections from the local host. Therefore, only users who have configured
Sendmail to listen to remote hosts would be remotely vulnerable to this issue.
Users of Sendmail are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which
contain a backported patch from the Sendmail team to correct this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
