Fedora Legacy Test Update Notification
FEDORALEGACY-2005-2419
Bugzilla https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=2419
2005-02-11
---------------------------------------------------------------------


Name        : mailman
Versions    : rh9: mailman-2.1.1-8.legacy
Versions    : fc1: mailman-2.1.5-8.legacy
Summary     : Mailing list manager with built in Web access.
Description :
Mailman is software to help manage email discussion lists, much like
Majordomo and Smartmail. Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives
each mailing list a webpage, and allows users to subscribe,
unsubscribe, etc. over the Web. Even the list manager can administer
his or her list entirely from the Web. Mailman also integrates most
things people want to do with mailing lists, including archiving, mail
<-> news gateways, and so on.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated mailman packages that correct a mailman security issue are now
available.

A flaw in the true_path function of Mailman was discovered. A remote
attacker who is a member of a private mailman list could use a carefully
crafted URL and gain access to arbitrary files on the server. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
CAN-2005-0202 to this issue.

Note: Mailman installations running on Apache 2.0-based servers are not
vulnerable to this issue.

Users of mailman should update to these erratum packages that contain a
patch and are not vulnerable to this issue.
