Something to consider is that lots of folks run statistical filters that do a great job of noting and nuking these things. However, when you copy the effective spam in its entirety in your top-posted reply, the question arises as to whether the reply should also be considered spam or not. Either your reply weakens the spamminess of the original message or it is itself tossed into the spam classifier, thus making your own messages marginally more likely to be considered to be spam, and neither of those are great results. In order of relevance and importance as I see it: 1. Please don't reply to things that should be treated as spam . 2. Please don't quote spam or things that should be treated like spam back to the list where you saw it, to avoid the classification tangle noted. 3. Please don't top-post. -- Mason Loring Bliss (( If I have not seen as far as others, it is because ma...@blisses.org )) giants were standing on my shoulders. - Hal Abelson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-security-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

CVE-2011-1929 Dovecot DOS
I was wondering if there's any activity regarding this? http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-1929 I noted it from Red Hat notifications here: https://www.redhat.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2011-1929.html https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-1187.html -- Mason Loring Bliss ma...@blisses.orghttp://blisses.org/ I am a brother of jackals, and a companion of ostriches.

dhclient remote exploit?
I just ran into this: http://xrl.us/bjmp2a (Link to www.h-online.com) I was curious about it. DSA 2184 seems to be a fix for a different issue: http://www.debian.org/security/2011/dsa-2184 Are there plans in the works for addressing CVE-2011-0997, or are Squeeze and Lenny not affected for some reason?

Hm. I like that better in general. Processing doesn't have to wait for the entirety of the command's output to be generated.

I have searched my notes, gone through the deb available and have not been able to find it. Might just have been something on SourceForge... Has anyone else run across a program of this nature? My favourite method: for foo in `find . -name something` do ed $foo END ,s/something/else/g w q END done This is doubtless less efficient than having find(1) drive ed directly. It has the advantage, however, of working everywhere consistently without requiring some new sed(1) or Perl or the like. -- Mason Loring Bliss [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oderint dum metuant! https://bliss.dyndns.org/awake ? sleep : random() 2 ? dream : sleep; pgpiWb82ywjP4.pgp Description: PGP signature
