    <description>Hi,

This is worrying, to say the least:

PHP Security From The Inside
By Federico Biancuzzi
Stefan Esser is the founder of both the Hardened-PHP Project and the PHP
Security Response Team (which he recently left). Federico Biancuzzi
discussed with him how the PHP Security Response Team works, why he
resigned from it, what features he plans to add to his own hardening
patch, the interaction between Apache and PHP, the upcoming "Month of
PHP bugs" initiative, and common mistakes in the design of well-known
applications such as WordPress.

So:
- a timeout needs to be added (its only a UDP answer, that may never
come) e.g. 200ms
- and a number of retries, e.g. 5
- and a second vmps server IP address
- all paramets should be configurable.

    <description>Hi,

The current stable release only works with VMPS, which is Cisco
specific.

We have a prototype working with 802.1x now too. We are testing with
Cisco, but other vendors should work too. What vendor are you interested
in?

    <description>Hi, Freenac gurus,

I am interesting for this project, but I have one question:

Is it must fro using cisco switches to realize freenac?

In the other words, could it be a possible to assign dynamic vlans
other than vpms in cisco world?

Ok, maybe we could use 802.1x, so this could dynamic vlan assignment?
instead of VPMS?

If it is possible, that will be great!

TIA

    <title>OpenVMPS Logging Function Format StringVulnerability</title>
    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenac.devel/28</link>
    <description>Hi,

One of the key FreeNAC components (namely OpenVMPS) suffers from a Logging Function Format String Vulnerability which affects version 1.3 running on Debian 3.0, Slackware 10.0 and Fedora Core 2. See also the advisory http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/15072/info

The OpenVMPS author solved this problem in the CVS (see http://vmps.cvs.sourceforge.net/vmps/vmpsd/), but didn't published a patch for the current stable release.

As regards FreeNAC.net, we are providing:

a) An OpenVMPS patch, if you wish to update your OpenVMPS module:
http://www.freenac.net/downloads/openvmps.patch

b) If you are using the FreeNAC virtual appliance please do an "svn update" from /opt/nac to fix this vulnerabilty.

c) For 'tarball' users, an updated tarball will be released next week containing this fix and some new features.

Regards,

the FreeNAC team

Great. I'm on the openvmps dev list, but I didn't see any messages. This
shows the importance of communications: making sure your user community
is aware of changes.
We must work more with the OpenVMPS author...

Ok, lets test in development (HO/SB) &amp; rollout (PB/SB).

So we should also open a bug on out SF page, and create a patch

Which of you can do an anaylsis and maybe even come up with a patch? I'm
not sure that the OpenVMPS autor is still actively maintaining.

Just found an exploit for openvmps, 
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/15072/info

Which of you can do an anaylsis and maybe even come up with a patch? I'm
not sure that the OpenVMPS autor is still actively maintaining.

Regards,

Sean

    <title>Exploit for OpenVMPS 1.3</title>
    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenac.devel/24</link>
    <description>Hi, I've found the next advisory:

OpenVMPS is affected by a remote format-string vulnerability. The application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it as the format specifier in a system-log entry.

Info and the exploit can be found at: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/15072/info

I've tested the exploit and seems to affect OpenVMPSd v1.3 (the one we use) running on Slackware 10.0, Debian 3.0 and Fedora Core 2. The exploit failed when I tested it in the development server, since we are running on a different distro. 

No patches have been released for this vulnerability.

    <description>After Freeradius what would be your next choice? gnu or Open?

    <title>Radius support</title>

    <description>Hi, here is a short discussion about all the OpenSource RADIUS servers available to tie in 802.1X support in FreeNAC.

Cistron RADIUS

It is the predecessor of FreeRadius. It is still maintained because lots of people still use it, but it will not get any major new functionality (SQL, LDAP, etc) as FreeRadius.

ICRADIUS

A variant of Cistron, with MySQL support, and a web-based front end. Not much info available  at the moment (web site has some technical difficulties).


XtRADIUS

Another Cistron variant, with extension for running external programs for accounting or authentication. This RADIUS performs authentication using either a radius users file, or the system password file, or an external script. Documentation is scarce and it doesn't appear to be actively maintained.


OpenRADIUS

Support for LDAP, SQL. The authentication can be fully customizable. Everything is a pluggable, completely under the control of the administrator. Lacks some documentation though. 

GNU-radius

Authentication schemes somewhat limited (system database, internal database, SQL auth, PAM auth). Allows for SNMP management. Ability to rewrite RADIUS requests from various NASs to normalize them to a more understandable format, as well as the ability to completely customize the behavior of radius authentication and accounting based on NAS and user attributes. Mailing list not very active.

Yard RADIUS

Derived from the original Livingston radius server. It doesn't support MySQL and LDAP.Development seems not very active at the moment. Doesn't support multi-threading.

JRADIUS

It is not a standalone server, it's a java plugin for FreeRadius which talks to a Java server, allowing you to write RADIUS handlers in Java.


FreeRadius

Includes a PAM authentication module and Apache authentication modules. Comes with a PHP-based web user administration tool, support for LDAP, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, EAP, EAP-MD5, EAP-SIM, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-PEAP and Cisco LEAP. Supports proxying, failover and load balancing. Support for writing own auth modules. Mailing list is pretty active. Documentation can be a pain in the ass though.

There are some others (ie. PowerRadius, WinRadius) but they are not opensource :(

It seems that the best option we have is FreeRadius. Does anyboby have a different point of view?
