Detail
| A vulnerability has been identified and corrected in squirrelmail: The map_yp_alias function in functions/imap_general.php in SquirrelMail before 1.4.19 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a username string that is used by the ypmatch program. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-1579. (CVE-2009-1381) Basically this is a syncronization with the latest squirrelmail package found in Mandriva Cooker. The rpm changelog will reveal all the changes (rpm -q --changelog squirrelmail). The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest version of squirrelmail to prevent this. |

| Title: | DSA-1802-1 squirrelmail -- several | ||
| Description: | Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in SquirrelMail, a webmail application. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2009-1578 Cross site scripting was possible through a number of pages which allowed an attacker to steal sensitive session data. CVE-2009-1579 Code injection was possible when SquirrelMail was configured to use the map_yp_alias function to authenticate users. This is not the default. CVE-2009-1580 It was possible to hijack an active user session by planting a specially crafted cookie into the user's browser. CVE-2009-1581 Specially crafted HTML emails could use the CSS positioning feature to place email content over the SquirrelMail user interface, allowing for phishing. For the old stable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 2:1.4.9a-4. For the stable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 2:1.4.15-4+lenny1. For the unstable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.18-1. We recommend that you upgrade your squirrelmail package. | ||
