GCVE Workshop - 22 September 2026 (14:00-18:00), Luxembourg Before The Vulnopticon Conference - Registration

RHSA-2004:434

Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2004-09-22 17:57 - Updated: 2025-11-21 17:27
Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: redhat-config-nfs security update
Severity
Low
Notes
Topic: An updated redhat-config-nfs package that fixes bugs and potential security issues is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.
Details: The redhat-config-nfs package includes a graphical user interface for creating, modifying, and deleting nfs shares. John Buswell discovered a flaw in redhat-config-nfs that could lead to incorrect permissions on exported shares when exporting to multiple hosts. This could cause an option such as "all_squash" to not be applied to all of the listed hosts. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0750 to this issue. Additionally, a bug was found that prevented redhat-config-nfs from being run if hosts didn't have options set in /etc/exports. All users of redhat-config-nfs are advised to upgrade to these updated packages as well as checking their NFS shares directly or via the /etc/exports file for any incorrectly set options.

Unknown vulnerability in redhat-config-nfs before 1.0.13, when shares are exported to multiple hosts, can produce incorrect permissions and prevent the all_squash option from being applied.
