Exmh bug

daemon@ATHENA.MIT.EDU (Kev)
Mon Aug 7 10:31:08 2000

Message-Id: <200008071426.KAA18352@multics.mit.edu>
To: bug-sipb@MIT.EDU
Date: Mon, 07 Aug 2000 10:26:00 -0400
From: Kev <klmitch@MIT.EDU>

The following message causes exmh to display the following text:

This is a application/pgp
It might be displayable with metamail.	(Invoke menu with right button.)
	format = text
	x-action = sign

Right-clicking and turning off "Decode part as MIME" properly displays
the message.  Note that I have exmh configured such that "Decode part
as MIME" is supposed to always be off; I have no idea why it insists on
turning this feature on against my wishes and my explicit configuration.

I gotta switch to rmail or something.

Package: mailman
Vulnerability: local mailman group exploit
Debian-specific: no

Former versions of mailman v2.0 came with a security problem,
introduced during the 2.0 beta cycle, that could be exploited by
clever local users to gain group mailman permission.  No exploit does
exist at the moment, though.

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.


Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 alias slink
- - --------------------------------

  Slink comes with version 1.0 that is not vulnerable.

Debian 2.2 alias potato
- - -----------------------

  Potato comes with version 1.1 that is not vulnerable.

Debian Unstable alias woody
- - ---------------------------

  This version of Debian is not yet released and reflects the current
  development release.  Fixes are currently available for Intel ia32
  and Motorola 680x0.  Fixes for other architectures will be available
  soon.  In doubt, please recompile the package from source on your
  own.
