Debian DSA-126-1 : imp - XSS

high Nessus Plugin ID 14963

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

A cross-site scripting (CSS) problem was discovered in Horde and IMP (a web-based IMAP mail package). This was fixed upstream in Horde version 1.2.8 and IMP version 2.2.8. The relevant patches have been back-ported to version 1.2.6-0.potato.5 of the horde package and version 2.2.6-0.potato.5 of the imp package.

This release also fixes a bug introduced by the PHP security fix from DSA-115-1: Postgres support for PHP was changed in a subtle way which broke the Postgres support from IMP.

Solution

Upgrade the affected imp package.
