Debian Security Advisory DSA-257-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Wichert Akkerman
March 4, 2003
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : sendmail
Problem type : remote exploit
Debian-specific: no
Mark Dowd of ISS X-Force found a bug in the header parsing routines
of sendmail: it could overflow a buffer overflow when encountering
addresses with very long comments. 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/
