Sebastian Krahmer of the SUSE Security Team discovered a flaw in the way Postfix dereferenced symbolic links. If a local user had write access to a mail spool directory without a root mailbox file, it could be possible for them to append arbitrary data to files that root had write permissions to . The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
