USN-74-2: Fixed Postfix packages for USN-74-1

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-74-2

4th February, 2005

postfix vulnerability

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

  • Ubuntu 4.10

Details

This is an update to the recently published Ubuntu Security Notice
USN-74-1, which fixed the delivery of arbitrary mail to any MX host
which has an IPv6 address.

Unfortunately that upgrade revealed an error in the package upgrade
system which caused package installation to fail. After the failed
upgrade the Postfix server was not started again, thus no mail was
delivered.

This new set of packages fixes the error encountered when upgrading.

Update instructions

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package version:

Ubuntu 4.10:
