[Bug 1921682] [NEW] Japanese language prevents user from unsubscribing

by Tomas Korbar

Public bug reported: Hi, When mailing list is configured with: preferred_language = 'ja' available_languages = ['en', 'ja'] send_goodbye_msg = 0 And mailman receives confirmation email for unsubscription with multipart message encoded in different encoding than euc-jp, then mailmans command runner crashes with traceback: Feb 10 18:08:00 2021 (1270) Uncaught runner exception: 'euc_jp' codec can't decode bytes in position 280-281: illegal multibyte sequence Feb 10 18:08:00 2021 (1270) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 119, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 190, in _onefile keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/CommandRunner.py", line 291, in _dispose res.send_response() File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/CommandRunner.py", line 208, in send_response results = MIMEText(NL.join(encoded_resp), _charset=charset) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/email/mime/text.py", line 30, in __init__ self.set_payload(_text, _charset) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/email/message.py", line 226, in set_payload self.set_charset(charset) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/email/message.py", line 264, in set_charset self._payload = charset.body_encode(self._payload) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/email/charset.py", line 390, in body_encode s = self.convert(s) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/email/charset.py", line 273, in convert return unicode(s, self.input_codec).encode(self.output_codec) UnicodeDecodeError: 'euc_jp' codec can't decode bytes in position 280-281: illegal multibyte sequence Here is an example of a mail which triggers this: Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2020 14:13:16 +0900 Subject: Re: ###CONFIRM### From: <testuser2@###SERVER###> To: userlist-request(a)###SERVER###.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="000000000000663b1c05b3cdda78" --000000000000663b1c05b3cdda78 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 44GT44KT44Gr44Gh44Gv5LiW55WM --000000000000663b1c05b3cdda78 Also its maybe worth pointing out that setting RESPONSE_INCLUDE_LEVEL to <=1 mitigates this. I've managed to fix this issue by decoding the message part with its original charset and then encoding it to preferred encoding of mailing list. I'm attaching my patch. Could you please consider merging it?

[Bug 1917968] [NEW] A text/plain message body is scrubbed with a .ksh extension

by Mark Sapiro

Public bug reported: If a simple text/plain message has a Content-Disposition: header and does not have a Content-Type: header with a charset parameter, the body will be scrubbed to a file with a .ksh extension. It is only text/plain attachments that should be scrubbed in this way and they should be given a .txt extension. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1917968 Title: A text/plain message body is scrubbed with a .ksh extension To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1917968/+subscriptions

Question #695864 on mailman in Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mailman/+question/695864 Status: Open => Answered Manfred Hampl proposed the following answer: What the script above does is: create a single password, and then start the command to go through all lists with this one password. If you want to have a different password for each list, then you have to do the password generation inside the script, either by calling some "random" or "secrets" functions or by opening a shell (e.g. with subprocess.run) for the "pwgen -sB 15 1" command from inside python. -- You received this question notification because your team Mailman Coders is an answer contact for mailman in Ubuntu.

[Question #695864]: Change moderator or admin password (random) different for each list they were an admin or moderator for

by Daniel Botting

New question #695864 on mailman in Ubuntu: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mailman/+question/695864 Hi, I have been using the withlist command to delete a given administrator or moderator from all mailman 2.1 lists. I also require to change the moderator or admin password for all lists that they have been removed from, but have it so that it is a different randomly generated password for each list they are removed from and then have this emailed to the other moderators or admins who are then left or a default address if none are left (I have managed so far that it is changed to the same password for each list they have been removed from). I am currently at the beginning of my Python learning so this is why I'm asking for help. My script and usage so far can be found below: Usage: withlist --all --run script_name.change_administrator_password firstname.lastname(a)domain.co.uk `pwgen -sB 15 1` The script is saved at: /usr/sbin/ Function defined in the script: import sha def change_administrator_password(mlist, owner, newpasswd): mlist.Lock() try: if mlist.owner[mlist.owner.index(owner)]: mlist.password = sha.new(newpasswd).hexdigest() print (newpasswd) except: print("password not changed for", (mlist.real_name, owner)) mlist.Save() mlist.Unlock() This will go through all lists and change the administrator password to a randomly generated one, but as advised above it will set the same password (not what I want) I've put a print in for debugging so I can see what it was. Thanks Daniel -- You received this question notification because your team Mailman Coders is an answer contact for mailman in Ubuntu.
