#4781 — Re: [SECURITY] [DSA 3576-1] icedove security update

Hi all,

Sorry if this is a newbie-type question... I use Icedove on Jessie, and immediately after I received this email I ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, but no packages were updated.

Thoughts?  Thanks very much.

Package        : icedove
CVE ID         : CVE-2016-1979 CVE-2016-2805 CVE-2016-2807

Multiple security issues have been found in Icedove, Debian's version of
the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client: Multiple memory safety errors may
lead to the execution of arbitrary code or denial of service.

For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 38.8.0-1~deb8u1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your icedove packages.

if you check the PTS[1] you can find that:

[2016-05-13] Accepted 38.8.0-1~deb7u1 in oldstable-security (medium)

so the package is available from 13 may 2016 and probably you have 
already upgrade to this icedove's version.

To ckeck
$ grep icedove /var/log/dpkg.log

Note: if you don't find nothing try dpkg.log.1 file

if there is nothing then look at your sources.list

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list

you must have a lines as the followings

deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free

or

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

if not, then you must add one and execute:

# apt-get update
# apt-get -u upgrade

Or just run "apt-cache policy icedove", which will show you what version
you have installed and what versions are available.

You should see a couple of lines that look like:
     38.8.0-1~deb8u1
        500 http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates/main amd64 Packages

If not, then check your sources.list as Davide suggested.

Yes, thanks to both of you.  Evidently I had already upgraded the 
package without realizing it; I now have the latest version.

I also apologize for not quoting and formatting my original message 
properly -- I had done a quick-and-dirty reply on my iphone (and not my 
Debian laptop, because I didn't want to use icedove at that point yet!) 
and apparently the iphone does not have good email etiquette for these 
mailing lists :)

Thank you again.
