FW: question

Here's what it seems they did with the exploit... Rerolling the binaries
*balls of Tomcat putting a new index.htm...

I'm downloading the supposedly wrong binary as we speak, but it's kinda slow

To be clear, I'm talking about the .sea and .sea.hqx files found at

http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.2.1/bin/

They were created (ostensibly) on Jan 9th by Pier.  Pier, do you recall
putting them there?  These are separate files, *not* within the .tar.gz or
.zip distributions.  I seem to recall people talking about running tomcat
on MacOS9, so I'm not tempted to automatically state they're a problem,
but please tell me if they are.

OK, I unzipped the ROOT.war file, and the index.html file in that dir
looks "normal" (i.e., not that index.htm file that person claimed was
there), as do the rest of the files that get unzipped.  I also looked at
all the other .war files, and none of them have that file.

So it seems OK.

Signing releases [was Re: question]

Posted by Marc Saegesser <ma...@apropos.com>.
I've checked the Tomcat 3.2.2b5 distribution and it looks OK.

Regarding signing the releases.  Could someone describe the procedures use
by other Apache projects for signing their releases?  Tomcat 3.2.2 will
going out in the near future and I would like to have a signing mechanism in
place prior to that.

Hold it hold it hold it... I made the SEA of Tomcat 3.2.1 to work with
Apple's MRJ on MacOS 8.6-9.1... (And it works!)

Might want to enforce it from a PMC standpoint?? :)

WHAT?? I don't think that there should be .sea files there!

.sea is a MacOS Stuffit Archive.

Also, the .war files are == .jar files which are equal to .zip files. They
are auto "uncompressed" by the servlet engine when it starts up. So, the
file will probably be located in the ROOT.war.

We really should take all of our distributions offline ASAP.

This is a project by project thing to do. Most of the projects do it
correctly.

Re: FW: question

Hmm; I looked at the following:

http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.2.1/bin/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1.tar.gz
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.2.1/bin/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1.zip

and in both of these, the webapps folder contained four files,

 [taz3] 6:54am webapps > ls
 total 1247
 1024 ROOT.war     7 admin.war   128 examples.war    88 test.war

I didn't look inside the .sea archives, nor did I see a webapps dir in the
servletapi tarballs.  Are there any other tarballs to look at?

This *looks* like a false alarm.  Ask him for an md5 of the tarball he
downloaded, as well as where he downloaded it from.  You guys might want
to consider signing your releases at some point, too.

Re: question

Posted by "Pier P. Fumagalli" <pi...@betaversion.org>.
DO NOT (I repeat) DO NOT OPEN the index.htm file I sent in my previous
post... It's infected with a copy of SunOS/BoxPoison.worm AND it seems it's
coming from one of our distributions of Tomcat 3.2.x...
I'm still digging thru it...
