--- Begin Message ---Package: cyrus-imapd Version: cyrus-imapd Severity: important Tags: patch Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? I was owned by a cracker that explited the fact that cyrus has /bin/sh as shell * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I'd set a simple password for cyrus, and expected to use that for situations where authenticating as cyrus would be done without a shell being opened. I run Kerberos 5 as authentication system, and GSSAPI for my IMAP access, so giving "cyrus" a Kerberos principal was important to get some admin stuff working. * What was the outcome of this action? I was owned and had to spend an evening rebooting and patching. * What outcome did you expect instead? Happiness ;-) * Fix: I've done a bunch of quick tests simply setting the cyrus user shell to /bin/false. The IMAP server works as before, but I've not tested all functions. If for some reason, the shell must remain usable, it is probably advisable to admonish people into setting a good password. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.7 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init)
