3. Description:

 

Augeas is a utility for editing configuration. Augeas parses configuration

files in their native formats and transforms them into a tree.

Configuration changes are made by manipulating this tree and saving it back

into native configuration files. Augeas also uses "lenses" as basic

building blocks for establishing the mapping from files into the Augeas

tree and back.

 

A flaw was found in the way Augeas handled certain umask settings when

creating new configuration files. This flaw could result in configuration

files being created as world writable, allowing unprivileged local users to

modify their content. (CVE-2013-6412)

 

This issue was discovered by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

 

All augeas users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. All running applications

using augeas must be restarted for the update to take effect.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata

relevant to your system have been applied.
