Immunix OS Security Advisory
Packages updated: mutt
Affected products: Immunix OS 6.2, 7.0-beta, and 7.0
Bugs Fixed: immunix/1506
Date: March 15, 2001
Advisory ID: IMNX-2001-70-006-01
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Description:
The version of mutt shipped in Immunix 6.2 has a format string
vulnerability. The version of mutt shipped in all Immunix versions
contain a problem connecting to some IMAP servers.
Immunix 7.0 does not install the mutt package by default but
provides it in the extras/unsupported directory so it does not need
to be upgraded unless it has been installed manually by the system
administrator.
Packages have been created and released that fix these
problems.
