Vulnerability Assessment Details

MDKSA-2006:013: kolab-resource-handlers

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Check for the version of the kolab-resource-handlers package

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2006:013 (kolab-resource-handlers).

A problem exists in how the Kolab Server transports emails bigger than 8KB in
size and if a dot ('.') character exists in the wrong place. If these
conditions are met, kolabfilter will double this dot and a modified email will
be delivered, which could lead to broken clear-text signatures or broken
attachments. The updated packages have been patched to correct these problems.
