Fedora 11 Update: daemonize-1.5.6-1.fc11
by updates＠fedoraproject.org 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-7655 2009-07-15 20:00:06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : daemonize Product : Fedora 11 Version : 1.5.6 Release : 1.fc11 URL : http://www.clapper.org/software/daemonize/ Summary : Run a command as a Unix daemon Description : daemonize runs a command as a Unix daemon. As defined in W. Richard Stevens' 1990 book, Unix Network Programming (Addison-Wesley, 1990), a daemon is "a process that executes 'in the background' (i.e., without an associated terminal or login shell) either waiting for some event to occur, or waiting to perform some specified task on a periodic basis." Upon startup, a typical daemon program will: - Close all open file descriptors (especially standard input, standard output and standard error) - Change its working directory to the root filesystem, to ensure that it doesn’t tie up another filesystem and prevent it from being unmounted - Reset its umask value - Run in the background (i.e., fork) - Disassociate from its process group (usually a shell), to insulate itself from signals (such as HUP) sent to the process group - Ignore all terminal I/O signals - Disassociate from the control terminal (and take steps not to reacquire one) - Handle any SIGCLD signals Most programs that are designed to be run as daemons do that work for themselves. However, you’ll occasionally run across one that does not. When you must run a daemon program that does not properly make itself into a true Unix daemon, you can use daemonize to force it to run as a true daemon. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Initial release. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update daemonize' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/. All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.

[SECURITY] Fedora 10 Update: drupal-date-6.x.2.3-0.fc10
by updates＠fedoraproject.org 31 Jul '09

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-8162 2009-07-31 17:30:53 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : drupal-date Product : Fedora 10 Version : 6.x.2.3 Release : 0.fc10 URL : http://drupal.org/project/date Summary : This package contains both the Date module and a Date API module Description : The Date API is available to be used by other modules and is not dependent on having CCK installed. The date module is a flexible date/time field type for the cck content module which requires the CCK content.module and the Date API module. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-046 * Project: Date (third-party module) * Version: 6.x * Date: 2009-July-29 * Security risk: Moderately critical * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Date module provides a date CCK field that can be added to any content type. The Date Tools module that is bundled with Date module does not properly escape user input when displaying labels for fields on a content type. A malicious user with the 'use date tools' permission of the Date Tools sub- module, or the 'administer content types' permission could attempt a cross site scripting [1] (XSS) attack when creating a new content type, leading to the user gaining full administrative access. -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Date for Drupal 6.x prior to 6.x-2.3 Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Date module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Upgrade to the latest version: * If you use Date for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Date 6.x-2.3 [2] Note that the 'use date tools' permission has been renamed as 'administer date tools' to clarify that this is an administrative permission (it allows the creation of new content types via a wizard form). You will need to re-assign this permission to any roles that were using it. See also the Date project page [3]. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- Stella Power [4] of the Drupal Security Team -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ Stella Power [5] and Karen Stevenson [6], the project maintainer. -------- CONTACT ------------------------------------------------------------- The security contact for Drupal can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the form at http://drupal.org/contact.
