Detail

Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho discovered that enemies-of-carlotta, a simple manager for mailing lists, does not properly sanitise email addresses before passing them through to the system shell.

For the stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.3-1sarge1

We recommend that you upgrade your enemies-of-carlotta package.
