Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA 1852-1] New fetchmail packages fix SSL certificate verification weakness
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Debian Security Advisory DSA-1852-1 security@...ian.org

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : fetchmail
Vulnerability : insufficient input validation
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2009-2666
It was discovered that fetchmail, a full-featured remote mail retrieval
and forwarding utility, is vulnerable to the "Null Prefix Attacks Against
SSL/TLS Certificates" recently published at the Blackhat conference.
This allows an attacker to perform undetected man-in-the-middle attacks
via a crafted ITU-T X.509 certificate with an injected null byte in the
subjectAltName or Common Name fields.
Note, as a fetchmail user you should always use strict certificate
validation through either these option combinations:
sslcertck ssl sslproto ssl3 (for service on SSL-wrapped ports)
or
sslcertck sslproto tls1 (for STARTTLS-based services)
For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 6.3.6-1etch2.
For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 6.3.9~rc2-4+lenny1.
For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 6.3.9~rc2-6.
We recommend that you upgrade your fetchmail packages.
