Synopsis:	Moderate: postfix security update
Issue date:	2008-08-14
CVE Names:	CVE-2008-2936

A flaw was found in the way Postfix dereferences symbolic links. If a local
user has write access to a mail spool directory with no root mailbox, it
may be possible for them to append arbitrary data to files that root has
write permission to. (CVE-2008-2936)
