Common Desktop Environment 2.3.1 Buffer Overflow

A buffer overflow in the CheckMonitor() function in the Common Desktop Environment 2.3.1 and earlier and 1.6 and earlier, as distributed with Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and earlier, allows local users to gain root privileges via a long palette name passed to dtsession in a malicious .Xdefaults file. Note that Oracle Solaris CDE is based on the original CDE 1.x train, which is different from the CDE 2.x codebase that was later open sourced. Most notably, the vulnerable buffer in the Oracle Solaris CDE is stack-based, while in the open source version it is heap-based.

Common Desktop Environment 1.6 Local Privilege Escalation

A buffer overflow in the _SanityCheck() function in the Common Desktop Environment version distributed with Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long calendar name or calendar owner passed to sdtcm_convert in a malicious calendar file. The open source version of CDE (based on the CDE 2.x codebase) is not affected, because it does not ship the vulnerable program. Versions 1.6 and below are affected.

Common Desktop Environment 2.3.1 / 1.6 libDtSvc Buffer Overflow

A difficult to exploit stack-based buffer overflow in the _DtCreateDtDirs() function in the Common Desktop Environment version distributed with Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and earlier may allow local users to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code in order to escalate privileges via a long X11 display name. The vulnerable function is located in the libDtSvc library and can be reached by executing the setuid program dtsession. Versions 2.3.1 and below as well as 1.6 and earlier are affected.

“Favorites” give you the ability to bookmark and annotate important passages and share them with your colleagues, if you like. Create shortcuts to specific spots in Cataloger’s Desktop resources so you can link to them in email messages and your local library’s cataloging policy manuals and training materials.

You can also save searches that you want to re-run in the future, as well as save sessions that reflect recurring cataloging operations. And— any bookmarks, annotations, or shortcuts you create in the current Cataloger’s Desktop system will carry forward in the new user interface.

PREFERENCES

As is the case with the current Cataloger’s Desktop system, the first time you log into the new user interface on September 10, you will be asked to set Preferences. This feature allows you to configure how Desktop works for you and is very important for getting the most out of the system. Earlier this year Library of Congress staff polled subscribers to find out what they wanted improved in the service, and many asked for a much simpler Preferences process. We heard you loud and clear . . . .

The new Preferences process should take much less time and should be much more straightforward. You will be asked to specify what language user interface you want, how long you want Desktop to remain open before it times out, RDA and Classification Web logins if you have them, and what types of resources you want to routinely consult. It should only take a couple of minutes to complete the Preferences process.

And—as is the case with the general search box, Advanced Search can be accessed anywhere within Cataloger’s Desktop.
