Package : mailx
Problem type : local exploit
Debian-specific: no
mailx is a often used by other programs to send email. Unfortunately
mailx as distributed in Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 has some features that
made it possible to execute system commands if a user can trick a
privileged program to send email using /usr/bin/mail.
This has been fixed in version 8.1.1-10.1.1slink.2 by no longer
allowing all configuration options to be set using the environment.
We recommend you upgrade your mailx package immediately.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 alias slink
