New vulnerability in Hyperkitty master branch
by Abhilash Raj 05 Sep '21

05 Sep '21

Hey Everyone, A new vulnerability was reported against Hyperkitty’s git master branch branch which can expose the archives of a private Mailing List through the new Feeds API that was added to Hyperkitty recently to someone who isn't a member or logged-in. Thanks to Ngo Wei Lin for reporting this vulnerability. This bug does not affect any stable released version of Hyperkitty and only affects installations from source (1.3.5b1 version). To differentiate from the vulnerable version, I have bumped the version in master branch to 1.3.5b2, so if you have 1.3.5b1 installed, you should upgrade! The fix for this bug has been committed to master branch[1][2] less than an hour ago as of this writing. If you are using git branches to install Hyperkitty, you can upgrade using the following command: $ pip install --upgrade git+https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty@master I have also triggered a build for Mailman container images[3] with this changes, so if you are using the rolling container images (which are the only affected ones), then you should upgrade to the latest one when the build[1] finishes (approximately in next 30mins). Do note that this version of rolling release of mailman-web image also includes the fix for the vulnerability announced against Postoruis earlier today. You can verify that you have the fixed version of Hyperkitty in the image by running: $ docker run -it --entrypoint bash maxking/mailman-web:rolling bash-5.0# pip list | grep HyperKitty HyperKitty 1.3.5b2 Ensure that you get 1.3.5b2 version.

CVE-2021-40347: New security release for Postorius
by Abhilash Raj 05 Sep '21

05 Sep '21

Everyone, A security vulnerability was reported against Postorius recently which allows any logged-in user to unsubscribe any other member on any other list on same Mailman installation using a specially crafted POST request due to a missing ownership check. This has been assigned CVE-2021-40347. This affects all past versions of Postorius including 1.0.0. Thanks to Kunal Mehta for the security report and a quick patch to fix the vulnerability. I am also attaching a minimal patch that fixes it along with this email, without tests and NEWS so that it applies to older versions of Postorius easily (I have tested the included patch with 1.3.3, 1.3.2 git tags). Upgrading to 1.3.5 release is highly recommended and it mostly includes the fix for this vulnerability (and a small compatibility fix for django-mailman3 1.3.6) so it shouldn’t introduce any other bugs. You can upgrade to this release by running: $ pip install postorius==1.3.5 A full change log is available here[1] as usual and can be downloaded from PyPI[2]. [1]: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/news.html#news-1-3-5 [2]: https://pypi.org/project/postorius/1.3.5/ Since there aren't many changes, this release requires 3.5+ like 1.3.4. Although, note that the next release will drop support for 3.5 and will support 3.6 only. For those of you who use container images, I am working on 0.3.12 of container images right now, so look out for that announcement. For those of you using the rolling releases, you can already upgrade to the latest version of the rolling release as it has the fix. -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)

domain owner role
by Rainer Herbst 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

Dear all, recently, I have added one account to a domain as domain owner. I did expect the new owner to see all lists in that domain in Postorius, but he sees no list at all. Is this the way it should be? How can I add administrators able to perform administrative tasks on all lists in Postorius?
