Hi All.

Time for the weekly monday bug mail ;-)


19. Sendmail

    Vendor: Sendmail Consortium

    A vulnerability was reported in certain versions of sendmail
    when using DNS maps in the sendmail configuration file.  A remote
    user may be able to cause the mail service to crash or (in theory)
    execute arbitrary code.

    Impact: Denial of service via network

    Alert: http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2003/Aug/1007564.html


21. Whois

    Vendor: GNU [multiple authors]

    Zone-h reported a buffer overflow in the GNU Whois client
    software.  Web-based applications that call whois may allow a
    remote user to execute arbitrary code.  The impact depends on how
    the application invokes or integrates the whois client software.

    Impact: Execution of arbitrary code via network

    Alert: http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2003/Aug/1007562.html
