high Nessus Plugin ID 66082

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

When using the authpgsql module and if the Postgres server goes down, authpgsql will start leaking memory.

A packaging flaw was discovered that caused the courier-authlib-devel package to be installed when installing for example maildrop.

This update fixes both of these issues.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
