[Bug 978351] [NEW] Content Filtering *_filename_extension matches are case sensitive.
by Mark Sapiro 10 Jun '17

10 Jun '17

Public bug reported: If the case of the filename extension in the message doesn't agree with that in *_filename_extension, they won't match.

[Bug 757062] [NEW] Content filtering can remove the headers from a message/rfc822 part.
by Mark Sapiro 10 Jun '17

10 Jun '17

Public bug reported: If Content filtering accepts both message/rfc822 and multipart/alternative MIME parts, and a message/rfc822 part contains a message whose content type is multipart/alternative and collapse_alternatives is Yes, the headers of the message in the message/rfc822 part will be lost. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: In Progress ** Tags: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/757062 Title: Content filtering can remove the headers from a message/rfc822 part.

[Bug 1525954] [NEW] mailman-2.1.20: option "subject_prefix": prefix trailing blanks are removed when subject lines have non-ASCII characters
by sphakka 03 Jun '17

Public bug reported: Trailing blanks on option "subject_prefix" are removed on subject lines with non-ASCII characters. F.i., with options preferred_language = "Français" subject_prefix = "[prefix] " (irrespective of encode_ascii_prefixes) sending this (via Seamonkey Mail, LANG=en_US.UTF-8): Subject: "[prefix] c'est du français" results in reception of: Subject: "[prefix]c'est du français" ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1525954 Title: mailman-2.1.20: option "subject_prefix": prefix trailing blanks are removed when subject lines have non-ASCII characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1525954/+subscriptions

[Bug 1539384] [NEW] Non-blocking DMARC mitigations should also be done for p=none
by Jakob Bohm 30 Dec '16

30 Dec '16

Public bug reported: If you read the DMARC informational RFC (no longer just a draft), you will see that there are 3 possible policies a mail domain (of a poster) can set p=reject All recipients should reject/drop mails with From: ...<at ourdomain> that have neither DKIM not SPF pass for our ourdomain. Send automatic reports of this to our postmaster at the specified rua address. p=quarantine All recipient spam filters should penalize ditto. Send the same automatic reports. p=none Recipients should act as if this policy was not there, but send the automatic reports so we can decide if our policy needs fine tuning before switching to a tougher p value. Currently Mailman 2.1.20+ has code that applies reasonable adjustments to avoid failures with posters from p=reject domains (such as Yahoo). Mailman 2.1.20+ also has an option to do the same for p=quarantine. But when a domain is set to p=none because the postmaster is trying to figure out what will break if he/she/they turn on quarantine, Mailman will continue sending mail in a way which causes all the backscatter reports from everybody except the list owner. As a postmaster I find this very annoying as it makes it hard to find actual problems in the flurry of backscatter noise from making even a few posts to a single Mailman list. Especially annoying is reports that some servers received mails with failed DKIM from a 4th party IP, as it is impossible to tell if those 4th parties were forwarding mails that were broken by Mailman munging the Subject header or were handling mails of some other kind needing a different correction. I would therefore suggest the following change to the 2.1 branch (since 3.x is still not in a usable state): * If dmarc_moderation_action is set to a value other than Reject or Discard, the specified mitigation should be applied to domains with any valid DMARC policy, not just reject. The effect of this would be: + List admins need to do nothing extra, since this works with the existing Mailman settings. + Domains that use p=none with a user posting to a list with action other than Reject/Discard will see the true effects that setting p=reject would have, and their users will see any change in the Mailing list behavior and be able to complain to the local postmaster before the domain goes to p=reject. Which is exactly the intended purpose of p=none. + Domains that use p=none with a user posting to a list with action set to Reject/Discard will receive a flurry of error reports reflecting how badly things will break if they go to p=reject, but the users will not loose their ability to post (because the reject/discard action is not applied to domains with p=none). Again this is consistent with the intended purpose of p=none. + Domains that use p=quarantine with a user posting to a list that has not set dmarc_quarantine_moderation_action will see the same effects as domains that use p=none (see above). + Domains that use p=quarantine with a user posting to a list that has set dmarc_quarantine_moderation_action will see the same behavior as for the current 2.1.20 code. + Domains that use p=reject will see the same behavior as for the current 2.1.20 code. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: dmarc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1539384 Title: Non-blocking DMARC mitigations should also be done for p=none To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1539384/+subscriptions

[Bug 775294] [NEW] Set lifetime for input forms
by Tokio Kikuchi 05 Sep '16

05 Sep '16

*** This bug is a security vulnerability *** Private security bug reported: We may have to set lifetime for input forms because of recent activities on cross-site request forgery (CSRF). The form lifetime is successfully deployed in frameworks like web.py or plone etc. Proposed branch lp:~tkikuchi/mailman/form-lifetime implement lifetime in admin, admindb, options and edithtml interfaces. Other forms like create and rmlist have confirmation by password thus are safe regarding CSRF. The form generation time is set by a hidden parameter whose value is calculated following the mailman cookie algorithm. The default lifetime is set 1 hour in Default.py thus configurable by a site administrator. If a password is set in request, authorization cookie is discarded so the password authentication is forced. Wget tricks to manage list in FAQ can be used as they are now. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Branch linked: lp:~tkikuchi/mailman/form-lifetime -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775294 Title: Set lifetime for input forms

[Bug 1583387] [NEW] Allow list admin to edit more templates.
by Mark Sapiro 27 Aug '16

27 Aug '16

Public bug reported: A number of .html and .txt templates can be edited via the web admin GUI to create/update list specific versions of them. Any templates can be edited to make list specific, domain specific or sitewide edited versions, but this requires a level of access that many list admins don't have. The templates that can currently be edited via the web admin GUI are: ('listinfo.html', _('General list information page')), ('subscribe.html', _('Subscribe results page')), ('options.html', _('User specific options page')), ('subscribeack.txt', _('Welcome email text file')), ('masthead.txt', _('Digest masthead')), The following would be useful additions to that list: ('postheld.txt', _('User notice of held post')), ('approve.txt', _('User notice of held subscription')), ('refuse.txt', _('Notice of post refused by moderator')), ('invite.txt', _('Invitation to join list')), ('verify.txt', _('Request to confirm subscription')), ('unsub.txt', _('Request to confirm unsubscription')), ('nomoretoday.txt', _('User notice of autoresponse limit')), ('postack.txt', _('User post acknowledgement')), ('disabled.txt', _('Subscription disabled by bounce warning')), ('admlogin.html', _('Admin/moderator login page')), ('private.html', _('Private archive login page')), ('userpass.txt', _('On demand password reminder')), ** Affects: mailman Importance: Wishlist Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1583387 Title: Allow list admin to edit more templates.

[Bug 1572330] [NEW] RFE, make nonmember_rejection_notice if any the default admindb reject reason for a nonmember post
by Mark Sapiro 27 Aug '16

27 Aug '16

Public bug reported: The list attribute nonmember_rejection_notice is given as the reason for an automatic rejection because the poster is in reject_these_nonmembers or generic_nonmember_action is Reject. It would be nice if this were also the default reject reason for a held nonmember post. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Wishlist Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1572330 Title: RFE, make nonmember_rejection_notice if any the default admindb reject reason for a nonmember post To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1572330/+subscriptions

[Bug 1582532] [NEW] bin/list_lists and both the listinfo and admin CGI overviews can throw MMUnknownListError
by Mark Sapiro 27 Aug '16

27 Aug '16

Public bug reported: bin/list_lists and the listinfo and the admin CGIs call Utils.list_names() to get the names of all lists. They then instantiate each list to determine if it meets the conditions for listing. It is possible, particularly in installations with a large number of lists, that a list can be deleted after its name is retrieved and before it is instantiated. Instantiation then throws MMUnknownListError. This should be caught in a try: and the list ignored. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1582532 Title: bin/list_lists and both the listinfo and admin CGI overviews can throw MMUnknownListError To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1582532/+subscriptions

by Mark Sapiro 27 Aug '16

Public bug reported: If for some reason a site doesn't want to or can't access a DMARC_ORGANIZATIONAL_DOMAIN_DATA_URL, maybe the site is IPv6 only and there is no IPv6 source of the data, the site should be able to set DMARC_ORGANIZATIONAL_DOMAIN_DATA_URL to None or a null string and avoid the attempted retrieval, the failure of which causes other issues. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578450 Title: Mailman should allow setting DMARC_ORGANIZATIONAL_DOMAIN_DATA_URL to None or a null string.
