Vulnerability Assessment Summary DSA-791-1 maildrop Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Max Vozeler discovered that the lockmail program from maildrop, a simple mail delivery agent with filtering abilities, does not drop group rights before executing commands given on the commandline, permiting a possible hacker to execute arbitrary commands with rights of the group mail.
