Package: ssmtp
Version: 2.64-3
Severity: critical
Tags: patch
Hi,
The recent change to install ssmtp sgid mail broke the possibility to
use the -C flag to select an alternative config file. This break
unrelated system configurations (eg, my git couldn't send mail anymore).
I think -C + suid/sgid is disabled for security reasons, and considering
I've been keeping my passwords secure by putting them in separate files
and calling ssmtp with -C (which means I can also use different
mailhubs) this broke my setup. Removing the sgid bit fixed the problem.
Please install the /etc config file as readable by anybody, and revert
the sgid fix (so that #567906 is not broken again) and then add a
comment there explaining how to change it that way if one wants, and the
-C option as well, and that it's otherwise unsecure to put passwords
there. Then the sgid change can be reverted.
Thanks
