Vulnerability Assessment Summary
DSA-191-1 squirrelmail

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Several cross site scripting vulnerabilities have been found in
squirrelmail, a feature-rich webmail package written in PHP4. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project identified the
following vulnerabilities:
These problems have been fixed in version 1.2.6-1.1 for the current stable
distribution (woody) and in version 1.2.8-1.1 for the unstable
distribution (sid). The old stable distribution (potato) is not
affected since it doesn't contain a squirrelmail package.
We recommend that you upgrade your squirrelmail package.
