[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello All,

The SquirrelMail Project Team is proud to announce the release of
SquirrelMail 1.4.7. This version is a maintenance release, addressing
the following problems since 1.4.6:
- Some security fixes (see below)
- Small enhancements
- A collection of bugfixes (see ChangeLog)

Security issues
===============

This release addresses security issues found since the release of 1.4.8:

Cross site scripting via malicious input the mailto parameter of
webmail.php, the session and delete_draft parameters of compose.php and
via a shortcoming in the magicHTML filter.

This is CVE-2006-6142. Thanks for Martijn Brinkers for his continued
research that uncovered these issues.

We've also changed SquirrelMail attachment handling to work around an
issue in Internet Explorer: the browser will attempt to guess the MIME
type of attachments based on content, not the MIME header we send.
Attachments could fake to be an 'harmless' image/jpeg, while they were
in fact HTML that Internet Explorer would render.

Further details on SquirrelMail vulnerabilities can be found at the
following address:

We strongly encourage any persons uncovering security issues to
contact the SquirrelMail team via security <at> squirrelmail.org.
