Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2010-09-03 21:00:16 UTC
CVE-2010-1638 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1638):
  The IMP plugin in Horde allows remote attackers to bypass firewall
  restrictions and use Horde as a proxy to scan internal networks via a
  crafted request to an unspecified test script.  NOTE: this is only a
  vulnerability when the administrator does not follow recommendations
  in the product's installation documentation.
Comment 1 Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2010-09-29 18:36:05 UTC
Horde ebuilds now show an ewarn to consult the SECURITY guide before providing Horde in a production environment. That's all we can do.

Closing noglsa.
