Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51863 |
Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2005:152 |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2005:152. Postfix is a Mail Transport Agent (MTA), supporting LDAP, SMTP AUTH (SASL), and TLS. A flaw was found in the ipv6 patch used with Postfix. When the file /proc/net/if_inet6 is not available and permit_mx_backup is enabled in smtpd_recipient_restrictions, this flaw could allow remote attackers to bypass e-mail restrictions and perform mail relaying by sending mail to an IPv6 hostname. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0337 to this issue. These updated packages also fix the following problems: - - wrong permissions on doc directory - - segfault when gethostbyname or gethostbyaddr fails All users of postfix should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain patches which resolve these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2005-152.html Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5 |
