Debian Security Advisory DSA-1685-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris
December 12, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : uw-imap
Vulnerability : buffer overflows, null pointer dereference
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-5005 CVE-2008-5006
Two vulnerabilities have been found in uw-imap, an IMAP
implementation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:
It was discovered that several buffer overflows can be triggered via a
long folder extension argument to the tmail or dmail program. This
could lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2008-5005).
It was discovered that a NULL pointer dereference could be triggered by
a malicious response to the QUIT command leading to a denial of service
(CVE-2008-5006).
For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 2002edebian1-13.1+etch1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) and the testing distribution
(lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 2007d~dfsg-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your uw-imap packages.
