Kuchling (akuchling) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Generate RSS summary in archives Initial Comment: Here's a first-draft patch. Things that need fixing: * The generated RSS feed needs to be validated. (It passed the W3C's RDF validator, but RSS validators still need to be checked.) * The date should be given in YYYY-MM-DD format, which requires parsing the .fromdate attribute. * How do I get the URL for an archived message? The generated RSS currently just uses the filename, which is wrong. How do I get at the PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL setting? * Getting the most recent N postings is inefficient; the code loops through all of the archived messages and takes the last N of them. We could add .last() and .prev() methods to the Database class, but that's more ambitious for 2.1beta than I like. (Would be nice to get this into 2.1final...) * The list index page should have a LINK element pointing to the RSS file. Please make any comments you have, and I'll rework the patch accordingly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2003-04-18 18:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Andrew, to get the url for the archived message use mlist.GetBaseArchiveURL(), which knows about private vs. public archives, the host name and the list name. From there you should be able to tack on just the part of the path under "archives/private/listname". See Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py for an example. Only other minor comment: NUM_ARTICLES can probably go in Defaults.py.in ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Justin Mason (jmason) Date: 2003-03-26 16:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=935 big thumbs up from me too.

[Bug 1462755] [NEW] qrunner crashes on invalid unicode sequence
by Thijs Kinkhorst 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

Public bug reported: When a message contains an invalud unicode sequence in its header, qrunner flat out crashes on that: May 17 15:32:20 2015 (981) Uncaught runner exception: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 18: invalid continuation byte May 17 15:32:20 2015 (981) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 119, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 190, in _onefile keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py", line 130, in _dispose more = self._dopipeline(mlist, msg, msgdata, pipeline) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py", line 153, in _dopipeline sys.modules[modname].process(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py", line 239, in process i18ndesc = uheader(mlist, mlist.description, 'List-Id', maxlinelen=998) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py", line 65, in uheader return Header(s, charset, maxlinelen, header_name, continuation_ws) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/email/header.py", line 183, in __init__ self.append(s, charset, errors) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/email/header.py", line 267, in append ustr = unicode(s, incodec, errors) UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 18: invalid continuation byte May 17 15:32:20 2015 (981) SHUNTING: 1431869540.389822+156779307d54473d0eb732994bb67eee95733285 A solution for this specific case is to have Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py pass the erorrs='replace' parameter. I would say that this is actually a bug in python-email, since I think it doesn't make sense to set errors to "strict" rather than something like "replace" when the intention is to parse stuff so free-formed, under-specd and user-controlled as email. Nonetheless, Mailman already sets errors='replace' in some places so it might aswell add it here. ** 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/1462755 Title: qrunner crashes on invalid unicode sequence To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1462755/+subscriptions

[Bug 1952755] [NEW] Permissions checks should be case-insensitive against login email
by Loïc Gomez 03 Dec '21

03 Dec '21

Public bug reported: Hi, One of our users complained being rejected with 403 Unauthorized when moderating a list he's an owner of. We're using Ubuntu SSO for login purposes, and we noticed they had an uppercase letter in their email in both account_emailaddress and auth_user tables. We asked them to add the lowercase version of their email and remove the other one, but mailman complained email address is already attached to their account. We then did some db surgery, updating their email to the lowercase version in both tables, and it resolved their issue. Authentication should probably do a case-insensitive check of login email against auth database. We're using mailman version: 3.1.1-9 Ubuntu package On a sidenote: email address was in both account_emailaddress and auth_user, auth_user could also be updated, so it uses account_emailaddress.id instead of having duplicate data. Could you please let us know if there are other occurrences of email in the schema, and if we should replicate our manual changes in some other tables for our user ? Thank you!
