"Florian Grunow and Birk Kauer of ERNW discovered a path traversal
vulnerability in SquirrelMail, a webmail application, allowing an
authenticated remote attacker to retrieve or delete arbitrary files
via mail attachment.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
2:1.4.23~svn20120406-2+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your squirrelmail packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
