[ mailman-Feature Requests-934617 ] Option for enable/disable combining multipart/alternative

Feature Requests item #934617, was opened at 2004-04-13 15:54 Message generated for change (Tracker Item Submitted) made by Item Submitter You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=934617&group_i… Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Paul Barnett (ptbarnett) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Option for enable/disable combining multipart/alternative Initial Comment: If filter_content is true, process() in MimeDel.py removes all but the first non-empty part in a multipart/alternative. All other functionality in process() can be enabled/disabled individually, but this particular sub-function cannot. A message with a text/plain and text/html alternative is usually reduced to text/plain, since that's usually the first alternative -- even if convert_html_to_plaintext is false. An option should be provided on the Content Filtering administration page to enable/disable this sub-function. This would permit the filtering of attachments, while preserving the HTML and plaintext versions of the message. Note: text/html must be added to pass_mime_types in order for the HTML part to be preserved, but I'm not advocating that change to the default content filter. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=934617&group_i…

The List-Id Header Field The List-Id header MAY optionally include a description by including it as a "phrase" [DRUMS] before the angle-bracketed list identifier. The syntax of the List-Id header follows: list-id-header = "List-ID:" [phrase] "<" list-id ">" CRLF Unlike most headers in [RFC822], the List-Id header does not allow free insertion of whitespace and comments around tokens.

[ mailman-Bugs-815297 ] Breaking signatures in message/rfc822 attachement!
by SourceForge.net April 12, 2004

April 12, 2004

Bugs item #815297, was opened at 2003-09-30 19:42 Message generated for change (Comment added) made by ber You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=815297&group_i… Category: security/privacy Group: 2.1 (stable) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 8 Submitted By: Bernhard Reiter (ber) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Breaking signatures in message/rfc822 attachement! Initial Comment: Mailman _must_ not touch MIME-parts which are nested more deeply in the mail. As tested with Mailman 2.1.2, header lines will be sometimes reformatted in message/rfc822 attachments which will break the OpenPGP signature (also conforming to the PGP/MIME standard) on that part. I'm attaching a simple email with on long header. Forward this as MIME part and sign it sending it through Mailman, the signature will be broken. This is an email security affecting bug, because if people start believing that a *BAD* signature does not mean much, because they get many broken by mailman, they will not react to a seriously manipulated email anymore! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Bernhard Reiter (ber) Date: 2004-04-12 19:17 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=113859 I have created a patch to address the problem. [ 933757 ] fix for [815297] signatures break https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=933757&group_id=1… ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marc Mutz (mmutz) Date: 2003-10-03 17:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=82377 This is not limited to message/rfc822 at all: As a specific example, create a message with an attachment and add the header Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="more-than-70-chars. txt" (all in a single line), then send it through a mailman-managed ml. Result: mailman "fixes" the message to look like Content-Disposition: attachment; \tfilename="more-than-70-chars.txt" It even does that inside a multipart/signed part, and this is where it breaks the signature verification. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bernhard Reiter (ber) Date: 2003-09-30 19:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=113859 Here is the email signed by myself and broken after delivery through mailman.
