Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory RHSA-2004:156.

Mailman is a mailing list manager.

On February 19 2004, Red Hat issued security erratum RHSA-2004:019 to
correct a DoS (Denial of Service) vulnerability where an attacker could
send a carefully-crafted message and cause mailman to crash.

Matthew Saltzman discovered a flaw in our original patch intended to
correct this vulnerability. This flaw can cause mailman to crash if it
receives an email destined for a list with an empty subject field. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned
the name CVE-2004-0182 to this issue.

Users of Mailman are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
include an updated patch and are not vulnerable to this issue.
