PHP 7.0 support should be improved, too.
- Added new "smtp_helo_override" hook; allows plugins to override
the HELO host sent to the SMTP server when sending messages
- Added STARTTLS support for both IMAP and SMTP connections
- Added PDO support for database connections, so no external
database module needs to be installed
Should be fix PR pkg/50197.
Here is changes from previous pkgsrc's snapshot.
Version 1.4.23 - SVN
--------------------
...
- Added Solarized Light and Solarized Dark themes, by Pavneet Arora.
- Added associative edit list option widget, with optional folder
list selector for values
- Added option to use blank spacer instead of security image ("This
image has been removed for security reasons.") for replacing
unsafe images.
- Full date and time is used as "title" (mouseover) text for dates
shown on the message list screen
- Custom Stylesheets are now sorted on the Display Preferences page
- $xtra in the displayHtmlHeader function is now available in the
global scope so that plugins can modify it during the generic_header
hook
- Added some generic client-side (JavaScript) libraries (including
an asynchronous server request mechansim). See the new /scripts
directory (plugin authors can refer to the plugin documentation
for how to use them)
- Added optional JavaScript folder list refresh ("check mail")
mechanisms that try to avoid refreshing if server is not responding -
see the $check_mail_mechanism setting in config/config.php or the
"4. General Options ==> "21. Auto check mail mechanism" setting in
the configuration tool. (If you do not update your configuration,
you will get messages in your logs: "PHP Notice: Undefined variable:
check_mail_mechanism in /path/to/squirrelmail/src/left_main.php on
line 322...")
- Added advanced control over the SSL context used when connecting
to the SMTP and IMAP servers over SSL/TLS (thanks to Emmanuel
Dreyfus). You can take a look at $imap_stream_options and
$smtp_stream_options in config_local.example.php in SquirrelMail
version 1.5.2 for more information. These configuration settings
should work the same under 1.4.23:
http://sourceforge.net/p/squirrelmail/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/squirrelmail/config/config_local.example.php
- Added ability to show login error from the IMAP server instead of
traditional "Unknown user or password incorrect" (thanks to Alain
Williams). See $display_imap_login_error in the configuration
file or "4. General Options ==> 22. Display login error from IMAP"
in the configuration tool.
- Configuration tool now shows the SquirrelMail version
- Added new attachments_top hook to src/read_body.php
- When resuming a draft, correct (from) identity is now pre-selected
- Removed overly-restrictive character limitations on address book
nicknames
- Prevent session lock-up caused by filters plugin trying to move
messages in an account that is over quota
- Added MD5 alternative to directory hash calculation
- Added ability for administrator to control whether or not users
can edit their reply-to address ($edit_reply_to in config.php)
- Added new "login_before_page_header" (boolean) hook; allows
plugins to have more explicit control over login page header
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
repository. Approved by wiz@.
* Now work well with PHP 5.4 and later.
Version 1.4.23 - SVN
--------------------
- Added capability to issue SEARCH commands in literal format (so that
non-ASCII search terms are handled RFC-correctly).
- Fixed hook name clash: new "smtp_auth" hook added in version 1.4.22
has been renamed to "smtp_authenticate"
- Added SASL PLAIN mechanism for IMAP logins; backported from version
1.5.2.
- Prevent syslog warning in call_user_func_array() call when no
arguments given. Patch from Jean-Philippe Guerard (#3309935).
- Changed the read_body_menu_top hook from concat_hook_function to
do_hook_function (plugin authors please note)
- Always ensure that the Reply-To header is a full email address in
outgoing messages
- Fixed issue with Noselect mailboxes being clickable in folder list
- Made performance improvements in mailbox listing
- Attachment filename extensions changed from ".msg" to ".eml"
- Unified address book searches somewhat: file-backed address books now
search in each field individually; database-backed address books now
search in fields other than first/last name (nickname, email); LDAP-
backed address books now search in common name fields as well as by
email address (cn, sn, givenname, mail)
- You may now enable LDAP-backed address books to be listed (using
the "List all" button on the address search screen accessed via
the "Addresses" button on the compose screen) by adding
"$ldap_abook_allow_listing = TRUE;" (without quotes) to
config/config_local.php (previously, this required editing of a
file).
- Added ability to control browser rendering mode (quirks versus
standards) - see the $browser_rendering_mode setting in
config/config.php or the "4. General Options ==> 19. Browser
rendering mode" setting in the configuration tool (#3240356).
- Added "search_index_before" hook (analog of the "mailbox_index_before"
hook)
- Made performance improvements in security token handling
- Improvements for compatibility with PHP 5.4.
- Added option that allows users to have replies to their own
messages sent to the recipient of the previous message (#3520988).
Version 1.4.22 - 12 July 2011
-----------------------------
- Backported default timezone fix from version 1.5.2; helps mitigate
timezone errors in environments where a default has not been set
by the administrator.
- Fixed system lock-ups caused by a combination of certain rare,
malformed message headers and buggy versions of PHP mbstring
(#3053349).
- Now allow multiple plugins to handle (add links for) a single
attachment MIME type.
- Now allow administrators to disable all plugins or enable just
a select few plugins (overriding the active plugins in the normal
configuration) by setting $temporary_plugins as an empty array
(all disabled) or an array with one or more plugin directory names
in config_local.php.
- Backport fix for call_user_func_array not supporting NULL as empty
array in PHP 5.3.3
- Fixed sqauth_read_password() for plugins on the login_verified hook.
- Added SMTP SASL PLAIN authentication option to configuration tool
(core support for such is not new).
- Gmail doens't support standard search commands; removed sort buttons.
- Forced addition of a file suffix to attachments that lack a filename
(helps forwarded messages avoid spam filters) (thanks to Petr
Kletecka) (#3139004).
- Fixed missing security token in listcommands plugin.
- Added smtp_auth hook (thanks to Emmanuel Dreyfus).
- Made speed enhancements to threaded message display (thanks to Siim
Poder) (#3288123).
- Allow administrators to configure subfolders of user INBOXes to be
treated as special folders by adding $subfolders_of_inbox_are_special
to config_local.php.
- Fixed incorrect display of INBOX subfolders under some configurations.
IMPORTANT: You may need to update your configuration so that
$default_sub_of_inbox is TRUE if it was FALSE (e.g., Courier IMAP users)
and after updating to this version, your special folders are no longer
listed at the top of your folder list. Also, if this change prevents
users from logging in with an error such as "ERROR: Could not complete
request. Query: CREATE "Trash" Reason Given: Invalid mailbox name.",
you will need to correct the user preference values for the problem
folders. You can do so with commands such as the following for file-
based preferences (adjust the data directory location as needed):
find /var/lib/squirrelmail/data/ -name *.pref -exec sed --in-place 's/trash_folder=Trash/trash_folder=INBOX.Trash/g' {} \;
find /var/lib/squirrelmail/data/ -name *.pref -exec sed --in-place 's/trash_folder=Drafts/trash_folder=INBOX.Drafts/g' {} \;
find /var/lib/squirrelmail/data/ -name *.pref -exec sed --in-place 's/trash_folder=Sent/trash_folder=INBOX.Sent/g' {} \;
Or, for database-based preferences:
UPDATE userprefs SET prefval = 'INBOX.Trash' WHERE prefkey = 'trash_folder' AND prefval = 'Trash';
UPDATE userprefs SET prefval = 'INBOX.Drafts' WHERE prefkey = 'draft_folder' AND prefval = 'Drafts';
UPDATE userprefs SET prefval = 'INBOX.Sent' WHERE prefkey = 'sent_folder' AND prefval = 'Sent';
MAKE SURE to back up your user preferences first!
- Optimized message highlighting rules; faster message list display
and faster highlight rules management (thanks to C. Bensend for
extensive effort helping diagnose)
- New Mail plugin no longer removes normal organization title when
putting the number of new messages in the browser title
- Added clickjacking protection (thanks to Asbjorn Thorsen and Geir
Hansen for bringing this to our attention). [CVE-2010-4554]
- Fixed XSS holes in generic options inputs, XSS hole in the SquirrelSpell
plugin, XSS hole in the Index Order page, and added anti-CSRF protection
to the empty trash feature and the Index Order page (thanks to Nicholas
Carlini for finding all these issues). [CVE-2010-4555]
- Fixed XSS problem with unsanitized style tags in messages. [CVE-2011-2023]
- Now allow more than one plugin to control the compose form submit action.
- When sorting by received date, the received date is now shown on the

emails (#1795310).
- Fix typo in SpamCop plugin.
- Reduced default time security tokens stay valid from 30 days to 2 days
(reduces chances of session data growing too large)
- Several speed enhancements for recent fixes regarding the display of
encoded subjects, including a fix for messages with invalid subject
encoding (includes #2987016 amongst several other issues reported via
mailing list, etc.) (Many thanks to Zdenek Pytela for the untiring help
diagnosing and testing.)
- Fixed minor vulnerability in Mail Fetch plugin.
[CVE-2010-1637/TEHTRI-SA-2010-009]
- Now properly quote personal part of encoded addresses when replying.
- Now fill in default subject when forwarding as attachment (#2936541).
- Implement header folding that doesn't add extraneous spaces so unfolding
is less ambiguous (#1951776).
- Fixed issues caused by use of PostgreSQL keyword "user" in SquirrelMail's
default preferences database schema (#2943483).
- Fixed attachment filename decoding problems (#2994865).
- Now default search criteria to the TO header when searching the sent folder.
- Fixed literal processing of 8-bit usernames/passwords during login.
[CVE-2010-2813]
Version 1.4.20 - 06 Mar 2010
---------------------------
- Fixed issue with search not using literals correctly (#2846511).
- Fixed issue with returning to search results due to new security token
code.

information leakage when Firefox does DNS prefetching for URLs contained
in emails.
- Added unread links in message view.
- Added the ability to configure Google Mail (Gmail) as the mail server
behind SquirrelMail.
- Added option in display preferences that allows the signature to be

Approved by Martti Kuparinen.
The security fix to map_yp_alias in 1.4.18 turned out to be incomplete. We
also expierenced some regressions in the updated filter plugin. Both are
addressed in this new release 1.4.19 which contains a few other small fixes
aswell.
If you do not use map_yp_alias or the filters plugin there's no urgent need to
upgrade now if you already installed 1.4.18. If you are still on an older
release than 1.4.18 (or use the mentioned functionality) we do urge you to
upgrade as soon as possible as 1.4.18 and 1.4.19 combined fix some important
security issues. Those using the development branch (1.5.x) should install a
recent SVN snapshot.
The SquirrelMail Team is pleased to announce the release of
SquirrelMail version 1.4.18. The most notable changes for this
version are several security fixes, including a couple XSS exploits, a
session fixation issue, and an obscure but dangerous server-side code
execution hole. However, this version also includes three new
languages and more than a few enhancements to things such as the
filters plugin, the address book system and other things under the
hood. For more complete details, see the ReleaseNotes and ChangeLog
files included in this release (they have moved to the doc/
directory). We advise all users of SquirrelMail software to upgrade.
The SquirrelMail team is happy to announce the release of version 1.4.17. The
most notable change is a security fix that prevents certain specially-crafted
hyperlinks within messages from executing cross-site scripting attacks. For
other details, see the ReleaseNotes file included in this release. We advise
all users of SquirrelMail software to upgrade.
The SquirrelMail team is happy to announce the release 1.4.16. The most
notable change is that cookies are now sent with the secure attribute set for
HTTPS-connections, meaning that they cannot leak to an HTTP-connection on the
same SquirrelMail installation. For details see the included ReleaseNotes. We
advise users that offer their SquirrelMail both over HTTP and HTTPS to
upgrade.

(pkgsrc notice: we were using the original, known-to-be-good 1.4.12
distfile so all your servers should be fine)
Due to the package compromise of 1.4.11, and 1.4.12, we are forced to
release 1.4.13 to ensure no confusions. While initial review didn't
uncover a need for concern, several proof of concepts show that the
package alterations introduce a high risk security issue, allowing
remote inclusion of files. These changes would allow a remote user the
ability to execute exploit code on a victim machine, without any user
interaction on the victim's server. This could grant the attacker the
ability to deploy further code on the victim's server.
We *STRONGLY* advise all users of 1.4.11, and 1.4.12 upgrade
immediately.
NOTE: includes a critical bug fix in the attachment handling
- Enabled user selection of address format when adding from address
book during message composition.
- Fixed issue with adding attachments in PHP 4.x environments (#1805471).
- Backport size setting on "newmail" popup window.
- Added a "short_open_tag" configuration test.
- Undefined notice in error message box when no default folder prefix is set.
- Undefined index error when downloading. Possibly caused by using tabs and
opening multiple mailboxes.
- PAGE_NAME might not be defined in all plugins, which might cause a
"not defined" error on session timeouts.
- Fixed outgoing messages to allow addresses such as "0@..." or "000@...",
etc. (#1818398).
- Fixed issue with in-reply-to and reference headers not being retained on
reply (#1810659).
- Revived logout_error hook (#1800015).
- Allow custom session handlers to work correctly (and be defined at the
application level with SquirrelMail).
- Fix off-by-one in bodystructure parsing triggered by servers sending
a body location part (e.g. Sun Java System Messaging Server). Thanks
John Callahan (#1808382).
- Invalid initialization of To: header (#1772893).
- Includes cleanup in include/validate.php.
- Cleanup in multiple files to remove unneeded includes.
- Added sort by size (#812233 and #159997, plus multiple list requests).
Patch provided by Christopher E. Brown.

than configured settings (#1835942).
- Fixed mailto: functionality.
- Added mailto: link handling when viewing messages.
- Handle PHP's insistence on setting the value to 'deleted' for destroyed
sessions
Version 1.4.11 - 29 September 2007
----------------------------------
- Minimum PHP requirement raised from 4.0.6 to 4.1.0.
SquirrelMail has been broken for a while with 4.0.x without anyone
noticing, this move merely reflects reality.
- Fix broken set_url_var function in functions/html.php (#1729814).
- Fix config.pl not detecting auth support correctly (#1727033).
- Fix display of X-Priority in message view.
- Work around mailers sending broken Date headers with no space after the
first comma.
- Let POP3 class properly cope with lines starting with a '.'.
- Some HTML validation cleanups.
- Invalid year in sent_subfolders plugin (#1607380).
- Always treat Content-Type case-insensitively (#1732092).
- Fix typo: html/plain should be text/html.
- Fix en/decode header swith in MDN (#1694687).
- Fix compatibility with Windows path in administrator plugin (#1740469).
- Fix disabling password encryption in mail_fetch (#1738001).
- Fix busy loop and notice when two literals in IMAP fetch (#1739433).
- Backported code for site wide SMTP authentication (#1531889).
- Fixed issue with compose session not being cleaned after message is
saved or sent.
- Added ability to detect HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO in get_location(),
thanks to Daniel Watts
- Fix test for signout.php in the logged in check in is_logged_in() so it
cannot be circumvented by manipulating the URL. External plugins might
rely on this function guaranteeing that the user is logged in.
- Use attachment_dir only at the point where we're actually
reading from / writing to the files, do not carry it around
in the object. This makes us safer in the event the object
is somehow exposed to the outside world.
- Better support mailboxes named 'None' (#1598890).
- Sort readdir() output in conf.pl (#1755886).
- Fix message cache in printer friendly, thanks Tomas Kuliavas.

the URI of the "right" frame; plugins have to change the value of the
global variable $right_frame_url
- Fix issue in darkness theme with extra closing bracket.
- No longer store all message composition sessions in the PHP session,
since it was not made use of and in rare cases, made sessions too big.
- Composition restoration functionality now correctly restores attachments.
- Added smtp_auth hook.
- Change default Selection List Style to Indented.
- Added "preselected" query argument to mailbox list.
- Added mailbox_display_buttons hook.
- Removed "Include CCs when Forwarding Messages", which had no functionality
whatsoever.
- Make the Message Details plugin actually show the correct entity when
viewing details of attached messages.
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
Shortly after the release of SquirrelMail 1.4.10, a regression in the compose
form was discovered. Unfortunately the limited disclosure of security patches
does not allow for public testing, so this regression went unnoticed. We're
sorry for the inconvenience.
This version, 1.4.10 is a maintenance release, addressing
the following problems since 1.4.9a:
- Some security fixes (see below)
- Small enhancements
- A collection of bugfixes and stability enhancements
(see ChangeLog for a full list)
Security issues
===============
This release addresses security issues found since the release of 1.4.9a:
There's an ongoing battle to further secure the HTML filter against malicious
HTML mail and the browsers that accept almost any malformed piece of HTML.
This release contains fixes for the following:
- HTML attachments containing "data:" URLs;
- Internet Explorer in various versions accepts many permutations of HTML
and JavaScript in many charsets. We now properly canonicalize the incoming
HTML to us-ascii before applying further filters. IE only.
- Request forgery through images. It was possible to include "images" in
HTML mails which were in fact GET requests for the compose.php page sending
mail. These images are now properly detected, and the compose form will only
send mail through a POST request.
Thanks to Mikhail Markin, Tomas Kuliavas and Michael Jordon for reporting
(parts of) these issues and working with us to get them resolved.
These are known as CVE-2007-1262. Further details on SquirrelMail
vulnerabilities can be found at the following address:
