Description Philippe Chaintreuil 2016-12-02 00:09:17 UTC

Roundcube 1.2.3 has been released.  It's a bug fix & security release.

Security details from the release summary:
=======================================================================
"Included is a fix for a recently reported security issue when using PHP’s mail() function. It has been discovered by Robin Peraglie using RIPS and more details along with a CVE number will be pulished shortly."
=======================================================================

These traditionally work fine by just renaming the last ebuild.  (I'll report back shortly after I try locally.)

Comment 1 Philippe Chaintreuil 2016-12-02 02:29:09 UTC

Can confirm: just renaming roundcube-1.2.2.ebuild to roundcube-1.2.3.ebuild worked just fine for me.

CVE-2016-9920 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-9920):
  steps/mail/sendmail.inc in Roundcube before 1.1.7 and 1.2.x before 1.2.3,
  when no SMTP server is configured and the sendmail program is enabled, does
  not properly restrict the use of custom envelope-from addresses on the
  sendmail command line, which allows remote authenticated users to execute
  arbitrary code via a modified HTTP request that sends a crafted e-mail
  message.
