Public bug reported: In Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) a new upgrade has been released that upgrades the openssl package and the corresponding libssl0.9.8 library:
Preparing to replace libssl0.9.8 0.9.8a-7ubuntu0.7 (using .../libssl0.9.8_0.9.8a-7ubuntu0.9_amd64.deb) ... Unpacking replacement libssl0.9.8 ... Preparing to replace openssl 0.9.8a-7ubuntu0.7 (using .../openssl_0.9.8a-7ubuntu0.9_amd64.deb) ... Unpacking replacement openssl ... This upgrade makes the SASL authentication (for postfix) unusable, and so a whole postfix SMTP installation using that. That is a VERY serious problem. (Downgrading the two packages can be a temporary fix.) The following "auth.log" segment shows the details of the problem: Jun 30 12:49:28 mester saslauthd[22542]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_pgsql.so) Jun 30 12:49:28 mester saslauthd[22542]: PAM [dlerror: /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8: symbol pqueue_size, version OPENSSL_0.9.8 not defined in file libcrypto.so.0.9.8 with link time reference] Jun 30 12:49:28 mester saslauthd[22542]: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_pgsql.so Jun 30 12:49:28 mester saslauthd[22542]: DEBUG: auth_pam: pam_authenticate failed: Module is unknown Jun 30 12:49:28 mester saslauthd[22542]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=************] [service=smtp] [realm=nir.hu] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error] ** Affects: openssl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- openssl upgrade makes sasl unusable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393817 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
