Issued: August 1, 2008

CA Support is alerting customers to multiple security risks in CA products that embed Ingres. Multiple vulnerabilities exist that can allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code, gain privileges, or cause a denial of service condition. These vulnerabilities exist in the products and on the platforms listed below. These vulnerabilities do not impact any Windows-based Ingres installation.

The first vulnerability, CVE-2008-3356, allows an unauthenticated attacker to potentially set the user and/or group ownership of a verifydb log file to be Ingres allowing read/write permissions to both.

The second vulnerability, CVE-2008-3357, allows an unauthenticated attacker to exploit a pointer overwrite vulnerability to execute arbitrary code within the context of the database server process.

The third vulnerability, CVE-2008-3389, allows an unauthenticated attacker to obtain ingres user privileges. However, when combined with the unsecured directory privileges vulnerability (CVE–2008-3357), root privileges can be obtained.

Risk Rating

Ingres r3 Vulnerability Updates Install Steps (August 1, 2008)

Unix/Linux:

1. Log on to your system using the installation owner account and make sure the environment is set up correctly:
   
   
2. II_SYSTEM must be set to the Ingres system files
   
   
3. PATH must include $II_SYSTEM/bin and $II_SYSTEM/utility directories.
   
   
4. Change directory to the root directory of the Ingres installation or use a previously created directory.
   
   
   cd $II_SYSTEM/ingres
   
   
   or
   
   
   cd <patch_directory>
   
   
5. Copy the download maintenance update file in to the current directory and uncompress
   
   
6. Read in the update file with the following commands:
   
   
   umask 022
   
   
   tar xf [update_file]
   
   
   This will create the directory:
   
   
   $II_SYSTEM/ingres/patchXXXXX
   
   
   or
   
   
   <patch_directory>/patchXXXXX
   
   Note: ‘XXXXX' in patchXXXXX refers to the update number
   
   
7. Stop all Ingres processes with the ‘ingstop' utility:
   
   
   ingstop
   
   
8. Change directory to the patch directory:
   
   
   cd patchXXXXX
   
   
9. Within the patch directory run the following command:
   
   
   ./utility/iiinstaller
   
   Please check the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/patch.log file to make sure the patch was applied successfully. Also check the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/version.rel to make sure the patch is referenced.
   
   Note: The patch can also be installed silently using the ‘-m' flag with iiinstaller:
   ./utility/iiinstaller -m
   
   
10. Once the patch install has been complete, re-link the iimerge binary with the following command:
    
    
    iilink
    
    
11. Ingres can then be restarted with the ‘ingstart' utility:
    
    
    ingstart

Ingres r3 Build Install Steps (August 1, 2008)

Important: Prior to installing the build, a full operating system backup of the $II_SYSTEM/ingres directory on Unix/Linux and %II_SYSTEM%ingres directory on Windows must be taken with Ingres completely shut down. Also, a backup of any other DATA locations that you may have must be taken, again with Ingres shut down. In case there is a problem with the update install, this allows Ingres to be restored from the backup.

Unix:

1. Log in to the system as the installation owner and make sure the environment is set up correctly:
   
   
2. II_SYSTEM must be set to the Ingres home directory
   
   
3. PATH must include $II_SYSTEM/ingres/bin and $II_SYSTEM/ingres/utility directories
   
   
4. Add $II_SYSTEM/ingres/lib to the shared library path
   
   
5. Set TERM to ‘vt100' and TERM_INGRES to ‘vt100fx'
   
   
6. Copy the downloaded update file to the /tmp directory and uncompress
   
   
7. Read in the update file with the following commands:
   
   
   umask 022
   
   tar xf [update_file]
   
   
   This creates a directory containing the distribution and other files.
   
   
8. Stop all applications that may be connected to or using any of the files in the Ingres instance.
   
   
9. Stop all Ingres processes with the ‘ingstop' utility:
   
   
   ingstop
   
   
10. Important: Take an operating system backup of the $II_SYSTEM/ingres directory and other DATA locations that you may have elsewhere. Also, copy the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/config.dat and $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/symbol.tbl files to a safe location to ensure that the configuration can be restored.
    
    
11. From the root directory of the Ingres installation ($II_SYSTEM/ingres), run the following command:
    tar xf /tmp/<update_directory>/ingres.tar install
    
    
12. Run the following command:
    
    
    install/ingbuild
    
    
13. The initial install screen appears.
    
    
14. In the Distribution medium enter the full path to the ‘ingres.tar' file (including the file) (See step 4).
    
    
15. Choose PackageInstall from the list of installation options and then choose ‘Stand alone DBMS Server' from the list of packages. Then choose ExpressInstall.
    
    
16. Choose Yes in the pop-up screen and press Enter key.
    
    The install utility verifies that each component was transferred properly from the distribution medium. When this is finished (without errors), another pop-up screen for setting up the components comes up.
    
    
17. Select Yes and press Enter key to go to the Setup program.
    
    
18. Once the installation is complete, check the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/install.log for any errors. Also, check the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/version.rel file to verify the new build is referenced; this should show 3.0.3 for the build.
    
    
19. If there are no errors, then restore the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/config.dat and $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/symbol.tbl files from the copies made in step 6 to replace the existing files.
    
    
20. Start Ingres using the ‘ingstart' utility:
    
    
    ingstart
    
    
21. Upgrade the databases in the installation to the new release level:
    
    
    upgradedb -all

Linux:

1. Log on to the machine as ‘root'.
   
   
2. Copy the downloaded build update file and to a previously chosen directory and uncompress.
   
   
3. Read in the update file with the following command:
   
   
   tar xf [update file]
   
   
   This creates a directory containing rpm packages for all of the Ingres tools.
   
   
4. Shut down any non-Ingres application(s) that may be connected to or using any of the files in the specified Ingres instance.
   
   
5. Stop all Ingres processes with the ‘ingstop' utility:
   
   
   ingstop
   
   
6. Important: Take an operating system backup of the $II_SYSTEM/ingres directory and other DATA locations that you may have elsewhere.
   
   
7. From the directory that was created in step 3, install the update rpms with the following command:
   
   
   rpm –Uvh *.rpm
   
   
   If the following error is seen for either the ‘ca-ingres-documentation-3.0.3-103', the ‘ca-ingres-CATOSL-3.0.3-103' or the ‘ca-cs-utils-11.0.04348-0000' (or all of them) packages, remove them from the directory containing the rpms and re-run the above command:
   
   
   package <package-name> is already installed
   
   
8. If the installation finishes successfully, then log on as ‘ingres' to the machine and start Ingres using the ‘ingstart' utility:
   
   
   ingstart
   
   
9. Upgrade ‘mdb' database with the following command:
   
   
   upgradedb -all

4. Change directory to the root directory of the Ingres installation or use a previously created directory.
   
   
   cd $II_SYSTEM/ingres
   
   
   or
   
   
   cd <patch_directory>
   
   
5. Copy the download maintenance update file in to the current directory and uncompress
   
   
6. Read in the update file with the following commands:
   
   
   umask 022
   
   
   tar xf [update_file]
   
   This will create the directory:
   
   $II_SYSTEM/ingres/patchXXXXX
   
   or
   
   <patch_directory>/patchXXXXX
   
   Note: ‘XXXXX' in patchXXXXX refers to the update number
   
   
7. Stop all Ingres processes with the ‘ingstop' utility:
   
   ingstop
   
   
8. Change directory to the patch directory:
   
   cd patchXXXXX
   
   
9. Within the patch directory run the following command:
   
   ./utility/iiinstaller
   
   Please check the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/patch.log file to make sure the patch was applied successfully. Also check the $II_SYSTEM/ingres/version.rel to make sure the patch is referenced.
   
   Note: The patch can also be installed silently using the ‘-m' flag with iiinstaller:
   
   ./utility/iiinstaller -m
   
   
10. Once the patch install has been complete, re-link the iimerge binary with the following command:
    
    iilink
    
    
11. Ingres can then be restarted with the ‘ingstart' utility:
    
    ingstart

Workaround

None.
