CVE-2011-0411 medium priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (postfix), 6 status rows across 6 suites (dapper, hardy, karmic, lucid, maverick, upstream): released 6.

Description:

The STARTTLS implementation in Postfix 2.4.x before 2.4.16, 2.5.x before 2.5.12, 2.6.x before 2.6.9, and 2.7.x before 2.7.3 does not properly restrict I/O buffering, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert commands into encrypted SMTP sessions by sending a cleartext command that is processed after TLS is in place, related to a "plaintext command injection" attack.
