  - CVE-2003-0038 - potential cross-site scripting via certain CGI
parameters (not known to be exploitable in this version)

  - CVE-2003-0965 - cross-site scripting in the administrative
interface

  - CVE-2003-0991 - certain malformed email commands could cause the
mailman process to crash

The cross-site scripting vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to
perform administrative operations without authorization, by stealing a
session cookie.

For the current stable distribution (woody) these problems have been
fixed in version 2.0.11-1woody7.

For the unstable distribution (sid), CVE-2003-0965 is fixed in version
2.1.4-1, and CVE-2003-0038 in version 2.1.1-1.  CVE-2003-0991 will be
fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your mailman package.");
