Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA 674-3] New mailman packages really fix several vulnerabilities

Debian Security Advisory DSA 674-3                     security@...ian.org

Package        : mailman
Vulnerability  : cross-site scripting, directory traversal
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2004-1177 CAN-2005-0202

Due to an incompatibility between Python 1.5 and 2.1 the last mailman
update did not run with Python 1.5 anymore.  This problem is corrected
with this update.  This advisory only updates the packages updated
with DSA 674-2.  The version in unstable is not affected since it is
not supposed to work with Python 1.5 anymore.  For completeness below
is the original advisory text:

  Two security related problems have been discovered in mailman,
  web-based GNU mailing list manager.  The Common Vulnerabilities and
  Exposures project identifies the following problems:

  CAN-2004-1177

      Florian Weimer discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability in
      mailman's automatically generated error messages.  An attacker
      could craft an URL containing JavaScript (or other content
      embedded into HTML) which triggered a mailman error page that
      would include the malicious code verbatim.

  CAN-2005-0202

      Several listmasters have noticed unauthorised access to archives
      of private lists and the list configuration itself, including the
      users passwords.  Administrators are advised to check the
      webserver logfiles for requests that contain "/...../" and the
      path to the archives or cofiguration.  This does only seem to
      affect installations running on web servers that do not strip
      slashes, such as Apache 1.3.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.0.11-1woody11.

We recommend that you upgrade your mailman 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.
