Package : maildrop
Vulnerability : privilege escalation
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : No CVE id yet
Debian Bug : 564601
Christoph Anton Mitterer discovered that maildrop, a mail delivery agent
with filtering abilities, is prone to a privilege escalation issue that
grants a user root group privileges.
For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.4-3+lenny1.
For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.2-11+etch1.
For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your maildrop packages.
