Since sendmail also parses headers when forwarding emails this vulnerability can hit mail-servers which do not deliver the email as well. This has been fixed in upstream release 8.12.8, version 8.12.3-5 of the package for Debian GNU/Linux 3.0/woody and version 8.9.3-25 of the package for Debian GNU/Linux 2.2/potato. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Obtaining updates: By hand: wget URL will fetch the file for you. dpkg -i FILENAME.deb will install the fetched file. With apt: deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main added to /etc/apt/sources.list will provide security updates Additional information can be found on the Debian security webpages at http://www.debian.org/security/ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato - --------------------------------- Potato was released for alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc.
