 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                          MDKA-2006:119
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : ppp
 Date    : July 10, 2006
 Affected: 2006.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 Marcus Meissner discovered that pppd's winbind plugin did not check for
 the result of the setuid() call which could allow an attacker to
 exploit this on systems with certain PAM limits enabled to execute the
 NTLM authentication helper as root.  This could possibly lead to
 privilege escalation dependant upon the local winbind configuration.
 
 Updated packages have been patched ot correct this issue.
