-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1981-2 security@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris January 28, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Package : maildrop Vulnerability : privilege escalation Problem type : local Debian-specific: no CVE Id : CVE-2010-0301 Debian Bug : 564601 The latest DSA for maildrop introduced two regressions. The maildrop program stopped working when invoked as a non-root user, such as with postfix. Also, the lenny version dropped a dependency on the courier-authlib package. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.4-3+lenny3. For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.2-11+etch2. For the testing distribution (squeeze) this problem will be fixed soon. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.2.0-3.1. For reference, the original advisory text is below. Christoph Anton Mitterer discovered that maildrop, a mail delivery agent with filtering abilities, is prone to a privilege escalation issue that grants a user root group privileges. We recommend that you upgrade your maildrop packages. 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.
