Package : squirrelmail
Vulnerability : several
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-0104 CAN-2005-0152
Debian Bug : 292714
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in Squirrelmail, a
commonly used webmail system. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project identifies the following problems:
CAN-2005-0104
Upstream developers noticed that an unsanitised variable could
lead to cross site scripting.
CAN-2005-0152
Grant Hollingworth discovered that under certain circumstances URL
manipulation could lead to the execution of arbitrary code with
the privileges of www-data. This problem only exists in version
1.2.6 of Squirrelmail.
For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.2.6-2.
For the unstable distribution (sid) the problem that affects unstable
has been fixed in version 1.4.4-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your squirrelmail package.
