Debian Security Advisory DSA 363-1                     security@...ian.org

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package        : postfix
Vulnerability  : denial of service, bounce-scanning
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids        : CAN-2003-0468, CAN-2003-0540

The postfix mail transport agent in Debian 3.0 contains two
vulnerabilities:

CAN-2003-0468: Postfix would allow an attacker to bounce-scan private
networks or use the daemon as a DDoS tool by forcing the daemon to
connect to an arbitrary service at an arbitrary IP address and
either receiving a bounce message or observing queue operations to
infer the status of the delivery attempt.

CAN-2003-0540: a malformed envelope address can 1) cause the queue
manager to lock up until an entry is removed from the queue and 2)
lock up the smtp listener leading to a denial of service

For the current stable distribution (woody) these problems have been
fixed in version 1.1.11-0.woody3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your postfix package.

Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
