Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-226-1 (courier)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to courier
announced via advisory USN-226-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected: courier-authdaemon

Patrick Cheong Shu Yang discovered a flaw in the user account handling
of courier-authdaemon. After successful authorization, the Courier
mail server granted access to deactivated accounts.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 0.45.6-1ubuntu0.2 (for Ubuntu 4.10), 0.47-3ubuntu1.4 (for
Ubuntu 5.04), or 0.47-3ubuntu7.1 (for Ubuntu 5.10). In general, a
standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
