Detail
| A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) The following packages are affected: mailman The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 2.1.5-1ubuntu2.3. In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. Details follow: An path traversal vulnerability has been discovered in the "private" module of Mailman. A flawed path sanitation algorithm allowed the construction of URLS to arbitrary files readable by Mailman. This allowed a remote attacker to retrieve configuration and password databases, private list archives, and other files. |
