Package: mailman
Version: 2.1.4-4
Severity: important
Tags: security

Mailman 2.1.4 has several important bugs:
	Security relevant: Mailman breaks message signatures
		           for S/MIME and OpenPGP cases.
			   This is a security problem, because
			   users will learn this and are more likely
			   to attribute real manipulation to Mailman
			   instead noticing them.

	Important, because data loss possible.:
	Mailman scrubs some text message parts under certain conditions
	when archiving.  The data cannot be seen in the HTML archive 
	and might also not be in the mbox archive, it is lost.

	Important: Mailman List-ID might violate the standard RFC.
	And the List-ID should not change much, users will be annoyed.

I wrote two patches and put them together with the third one on:
ftp.intevation.de/users/bernhard/mailman

(Each patch has its own description in the top
including the corresponding updstream bug numbers.)

Yes I am running this combination of patches successfully
with on a site with Debian (internal packaging name 2.1.4-4ber1).

	Bernhard
