 SuSE: New mailman packages fix remote file disclosure
 by Patrick Lenz, in Security - Mon, Feb 14th 2005 04:03 UTC

Mailman is a flexible mailing list management tool. It provides mail controlled subscription front ends and also includes CGI scripts to handle subscription, moderation and archive retrieval and other options. Due to incomplete input validation the "private" CGI script which handles archive retrieval could be used to read any file on the system, including the configuration database of the mailman lists which include passwords in plain text. A remote attacker just needs a valid account on one mailing list managed by this mailman instance. Fixed packages are available from ftp.suse.com.

 Debian: New mailman packages fix several vulnerabilities
 by Patrick Lenz, in Security - Thu, Feb 10th 2005 05:43 UTC

Two security related problems have been discovered in mailman, web-based GNU mailing list manager. Florian Weimer discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability in mailman's automatically generated error messages. An attacker could craft an URL containing JavaScript (or other content embedded into HTML) which triggered a mailman error page that would include the malicious code verbatim. Several listmasters have noticed unauthorised access to archives of private lists and the list configuration itself, including the users passwords. Administrators are advised to check the webserver logfiles for requests that contain "/...../" and the path to the archives or cofiguration. This does only seem to affect installations running on web servers that do not strip slashes, such as Apache 1.3. Fixed packages are available from security.debian.org.

 Debian: New mailman packages fix cross-site scripting problem
 by Patrick Lenz, in Security - Fri, Aug 9th 2002 07:43 UTC

A cross-site scripting vulnerability was discovered in mailman, a software to manage electronic mailing lists. When a properly crafted URL is accessed with Internet Explorer (other browsers don't seem to be affected), the resulting webpage is rendered similar to the real one, but the javascript component is executed as well, which could be used by an attacker to get access to sensitive information. Fixed packages can be obtained from security.debian.org.
