Package        : mailreader
Vulnerability  : missing input sanitising
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-0386

Ulf Härnhammar from the Debian Security Audit Project discovered a
cross-site scripting problem in mailreader, a simple, but powerful WWW
mail reader system, when displaying messages of the MIME types
text/enriched or text/richtext.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.3.29-5woody2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.3.29-11.

We recommend that you upgrade your mailreader package.

        will fetch the file for you

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
