Debian Security Advisory DSA-257-2                   security@debian.org

Package        : sendmail-wide
Problem type   : remote exploit
Debian-specific: no

This advisory is an addendum to DSA-257-1; the sendmail problem
discussed there also applies to the sendmail-wide packages.

Mark Dowd of ISS X-Force found a bug in the header parsing routines
of sendmail: it could overflow a buffer when encountering addresses
specially crafted addresses.

This has been fixed in version 8.9.3+3.2W-24 of the package for Debian
GNU/Linux 2.2/potato and version 8.12.3+3.5Wbeta-5.2 of the package
for Debian GNU/Linux 3.0/woody.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obtaining updates:

  By hand:
    wget URL
        will fetch the file for you.
    dpkg -i FILENAME.deb
        will install the fetched file.

  With apt:
    deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
        added to /etc/apt/sources.list will provide security updates

Additional information can be found on the Debian security webpages
