Sun Solaris pkgadd Inappropriate File Permissions Vulnerability

Solution:
Administrators may check for problematic files. The following command is suggested by Sun:

$ grep ? /var/sadm/install/contents

The presense of the '?' character in the mode, user or group field may indicate a problematic file has been installed.

Sun has recommended that users remove inappropriate file permissions by executing the following command as root:

# chmod a-s </path/to/file>

This issue has been addressed with the following patches:


Sun Solaris 2.6

Sun Solaris 7.0

Sun Solaris 8

Sun Solaris 2.5.1
