Slackware 15.0: 2023-356-01 moderate: Postfix email spoofing threat

New postfix packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix a security issue. . -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] postfix (SSA:2023-356-01) New postfix packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix a security issue. Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/postfix-3.6.13-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. Security: this release adds support to defend against an email spoofing attack (SMTP smuggling) on recipients at a Postfix server. Sites concerned about SMTP smuggling attacks should enable this feature on Internet-facing Postfix servers. For compatibility with non-standard clients, Postfix by default excludes clients in mynetworks from this countermeasure. The recommended settings are: # Optionally disconnect remote SMTP clients that send bare newlines, # but allow local clients with non-standard SMTP implementations # such as netcat, fax machines, or load balancer health checks. # smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = yes smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions = $mynetworks The smtpd_forbid_bare_newline feature is disabled by default. For more information, see: https://www.postfix.org/smtp-smuggling.html (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Where to find the new packages: +-----------------------------+ Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab (https://osuosl.org/) for donating FTP and rsync hosting to the Slackware project! :-) Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://www.slackware.com/ for additional mirror sites near you.
