                Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________

Package name:           webmin
Date:                   June 20th, 2001
Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2001:059

Affected versions:      7.1, 7.2, 8.0, Corporate Server 1.0.1,
                        Single Network Firewall 7.2
________________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

 Recently, Caldera found that when webmin starts a system daemon from
 the web frontend it does not clear its environment variables.  Since
 these variables contain the authorization of the administrator, any
 daemon would also get these variables.

To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.

If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".

You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites
listed at:

  http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3.

Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory.
For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for
Mandrake Linux 8.0, look for it in "updates/8.0/RPMS/".  Updated source
RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download
them.

Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.
