+ OpenAFS is a distributed network filesystem. +

+
+ +

+ Benjamin Bennett discovered that the OpenAFS client contains a design + flaw where cache managers do not use authenticated server connections + when performing actions not requested by a user. +

+
+ +

+ If setuid is enabled on the client cells, an attacker can supply a fake + FetchStatus reply that sets setuid and root ownership of a file being + executed. This could provide root access on the client. Remote attacks + may be possible if an attacker can entice a user to execute a known + file. Note that setuid is enabled by default in versions of OpenAFS + prior to 1.4.4. +

+
+ +

+ Disable the setuid functionality on all client cells. This is now the + default configuration in OpenAFS. +

+
+ +

+ All OpenAFS users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-fs/openafs-1.4.4" +
