Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.64026
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:122 (squirrelmail)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to squirrelmail
announced via advisory MDVSA-2009:122.

A vulnerability has been identified and corrected in squirrelmail:

The map_yp_alias function in functions/imap_general.php in SquirrelMail
before 1.4.19 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands
via shell metacharacters in a username string that is used by the
ypmatch program. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete
fix for CVE-2009-1579. (CVE-2009-1381)

Basically this is a syncronization with the latest squirrelmail package
found in Mandriva Cooker. The rpm changelog will reveal all the changes
(rpm -q --changelog squirrelmail).

The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest version of
squirrelmail to prevent this.

Affected: Corporate 4.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
