From http://www.courier-mta.org/?changelog.html 2005-07-02 Mr. Sam <mrsam@courier-mta.com> * rfc1035/spf.c: Soft DNS failures weren't handled properly when looking up SPF records. Potential memory corruption.
Scott W Taylor, please provide an ebuild for 0.50.1 and/or revbump 0.48.1 to fix this issues. Thanks.
net-mail, since the maintainer swtaylor seems to be missing, would you please provide updated ebuilds instead? Thanks.
The bumped 0.50.1 ebuild builds fine, but breaks collision-protect, since it is not mailwrapper-compatible. Thus, I can not test it, unless I make necessary changes. It will take a while, but I'm working on it.
According to Changelog swtaylor should be around. I proposed that we wait a day or two for him to provide an updated ebuild.
Created an attachment (id=62622) [details] A proposed 0.50.0 -> 0.50.1 diff I have modified a bumped 0.50.1 ebuild to actually work with mailwrapper. Attached is a diff against 0.50.0 for Scott to review and possibly use. This ebuild installs on my system with 5 other MTAs installed concurrently. I will also attach mailer.conf file to be put in ${FILESDIR}, in order for mailwrapper to work correctly.

Almost a week and no news. Ticho, mind finishing your already started work?
Actually, I was waiting for swtaylor to chime in on this, but he seems to be gone. What's worse, the mailwrapper compatibility issue seems to be a bit more complex than it appears. I'll try again later tonight though.
Ebuild for 0.50.1 is in portage.
Thx for bumping, Ticho. Arches, please test and mark courier-0.50.1 stable - thanks.
Actually, since last stable version is 0.48.1, this would be quite a large step, and I'd like swtaylor to handle it himself when he comes back. Please wait, I'll provide a bumped 0.48.1-r1 ebuild which fixes this vulnerability, soon. Thanks.
0.48.1-r1 is in portage, arch teams please commence stabilizing. x86 is done.
Stable on SPARC
Go ahead and continue to mark stable I will take over for net-mail on this issue. I have gone threw and double checked ebuild and all is fine.
Stable on hppa
0.48.1-r1 stable on amd64
ppc stable
Stable on alpha + ia64.
Ready for GLSA vote.
I tend to vote NO.
I vote NO too, this seems rather unlikely. Feel free to reopen if you disagree
