Description Ed Davison 2006-06-16 07:57:48 UTC
The default, non-masked version of bogofilter has a security vulnerability and needs to be updated in portage so it is not installed by default.  A non-vulnerable version, 1.0.1, exists in portage but it is masked for all arch's.


Here is the info on this from SecurityFocus (http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/16171/info):

net-mail please advise.

Is this a dup of bug #118414?
What does the line "Updated: Jun 15 2006 04:46PM" mean? What was updated?

118414 states that
|   bogofilter 0.96.2
|   CVS between 2005-09-08T02:49Z and 2005-10-23T15:16Z
and
|   bogofilter 0.96.2
|   bogofilter 0.95.2
|   bogofilter 0.94.14
|   bogofilter 0.94.12
|   all "current" versions from 0.93.5 to 0.96.2 inclusively
|   CVS between 2005-01-09T17:32Z and 2005-10-22T00:51Z
|   CVS between 2005-12-31T10:22Z and 2005-12-31T12:45Z
are affected. So we are not affected (release 0.92.8).

Sorry, i haven't seen this bugreport earlier.

Indeed seems like a dupe. Versions got us tricked again I guess.
