Package : smartlist
Vulnerability : wrong input processing
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-0157
Jeroen van Wolffelaar noticed that the confirm add-on of
SmartList, the listmanager used on lists.debian.org/, which is used on
that host as well, could be tricked to subscribe arbitrary
addresses to the lists.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed
in version 3.15-5.woody.1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed
in version 3.15-18.
We recommend that you upgrade your smartlist package.
