were not affected by this.  For completeness please find below the
original security advisory:

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:

1. CVE-2002-1131: User input is not always sanitized so execution
of arbitrary code on a client computer is possible.  This can
happen after following a malicious URL or by viewing a
malicious addressbook entry.

2. CVE-2002-1132: Another problem could make it possible for an
attacker to gain sensitive information under some conditions.
When a malformed argument is appended to a link, an error page
will be generated which contains the absolute pathname of the
script.  However, this information is available through the
Contents file of the distribution anyway.");
