The SquirrelMail security update RHSA-2012:0103 did not, unlike the erratum
text stated, correct the CVE-2010-2813 issue, a flaw in the way
SquirrelMail handled failed log in attempts. A user preference file was
created when attempting to log in with a password containing an 8-bit
character, even if the username was not valid. A remote attacker could use
this flaw to eventually consume all hard disk space on the target
SquirrelMail server. (CVE-2012-2124)
This update also fixes the following bugs:
* Prior to this update, SquirrelMail could not decode multi-line subjects
properly. Consequently, the decode header internationalization option did
not properly handle new lines or tabs at the beginning of the lines. This
bug has been fixed and SquirrelMail now works correctly in the described
scenario. (BZ#241861)
* Due to a bug, attachments written in HTML code on the Windows operating
system were not displayed properly when accessed with SquirrelMail. The
'!=null' string was trimmed to '!ull'. This bug has been fixed and the
attachments are now displayed correctly in such a case. (BZ#359791)
* Previously, e-mail messages with a Unique Identifier (UID) larger than
2^31 bytes were unreadable when using the squirrelmail package. With this
patch the squirrelmail package is able to read all messages regardless of
the UIDs size. (BZ#450780)
* Due to a bug, a PHP script did not assign the proper character set to
requested variables. Consequently, SquirrelMail could not display any
e-mails. The underlying source code has been modified and now the
squirrelmail package assigns the correct character set. (BZ#475188)
* Due to the incorrect internationalization option located at the i18n.php
file, the squirrelmail package could not use the GB 2312 character set. The
i18n.php file has been fixed and the GB 2312 character set works correctly
in the described scenario. (BZ#508686)
* Previously, the preg_split() function contained a misspelled constant,
PREG_SPLIT_NI_EMPTY, which could cause SquirrelMail to produce error
messages. The name of the constant has been corrected to
PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY, and SquirrelMail no longer produces error messages in
this scenario. (BZ#528758)
* Due to Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) settings, sending e-mails from
the SquirrelMail web interface was blocked. This update adds a note to the
SquirrelMail documentation that describes how to set the SELinux options to
allow sending e-mails from ...
