Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'mailman' package(s) announced via the DSA-3214-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
A path traversal vulnerability was discovered in Mailman, the mailing list manager. Installations using a transport script (such as postfix-to-mailman.py) to interface with their MTA instead of static aliases were vulnerable to a path traversal attack. To successfully exploit this, an attacker needs write access on the local file system.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1:2.1.15-1+deb7u1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1:2.1.18-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your mailman packages.

Affected Software/OS:
'mailman' package(s) on Debian 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
