- imap-lib crashes in client library
The client part of the University of Washington IMAP implementation is prone to a buffer overflow while parsing mailbox names. This bug can probably be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the affected mail client. (CAN-2005-2933). The 'imapd' that is included in the "imap" package itself is not affected by this problem.
This problem affects all SUSE Linux based products.
Trying to update imap-lib-2002d-61.i586.rpm for SuSE 9.0 tells me
Needs Dependency: linux-gate.so.1
I don't find any reference to "linux-gate.so" in ARCHIVES.gz for SuSE 9.0. Am I missing sth?
No, it is a buildproblem on our side. We will be pushing out fixed packages today. Ciao, Marcus
