Synopsis: Updated mailman packages close cross-site scripting vulnerability
Advisory ID: RHSA-2002:176-06

Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: mailman cross-site scripting

---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

Updated mailman packages are now available for Red Hat Linux 7.2 and
7.3. These updates close a cross-site scripting vulnerability
present in mailman versions prior to version 2.0.12.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386, ia64
Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386

3. Problem description:

Mailman versions prior to 2.0.12 contain a cross-site scripting
vulnerability in the processing of invalid requests to edit a
subscriber's list subscription options.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only
those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs
which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated.
Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current
directory *only* contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network.
Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat
Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.
