Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu USN-405-1 (fetchmail)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to fetchmail announced via advisory USN-405-1. A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 5.10 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Ubuntu 6.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. Details follow: It was discovered that fetchmail did not correctly require TLS negotiation in certain situations. This would result in a user's unencrypted password being sent across the network. If fetchmail has been configured to use the sslproto tls1, sslcertck, or sslfingerprint options with a server that does not correctly support TLS negotiation, this update may cause fetchmail to (correctly) abort authentication. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 5.10: fetchmail 6.2.5-13ubuntu3.3 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: fetchmail 6.3.2-2ubuntu2.1 Ubuntu 6.10: fetchmail 6.3.4-1ubuntu4.1 In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-405-1 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.8
