A new mailman vulnerability update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-586-1 March 15, 2008
mailman vulnerability
CVE-2008-0564
==========================
==========================
=========
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10
Ubuntu 7.04
Ubuntu 7.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
mailman 2.1.5-9ubuntu4.2
Ubuntu 6.10:
mailman 1:2.1.8-2ubuntu2.1
Ubuntu 7.04:
mailman 1:2.1.9-4ubuntu1.2
Ubuntu 7.10:
mailman 1:2.1.9-8ubuntu0.2
In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.
NOTE: Due to an internal release testing mistake, earlier
published mailman versions 1:2.1.9-4ubuntu1.1 (for Ubuntu
7.04) and 1:2.1.9-8ubuntu0.1 (for Ubuntu 7.10) accidentally
included an incorrect patch and caused a regression, as reported in
https://launchpad.net/bugs/202332
This update includes fixes for the problem. We apologize for the
inconvenience.
Details follow:
Multiple cross-site scripting flaws were discovered in mailman.
A malicious list administrator could exploit this to execute arbitrary
JavaScript, potentially stealing user credentials.
Updated packages for Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
