Until a few hours ago I was running mailman 2.1.29 on Debian Stretch, as
packaged by Debian, e.g. mailman_1:2.1.29-1_amd64.deb, so I was missing
the latest update published by Debian on April, 24 as
mailman_1:2.1.29-1+deb10u1_amd64.deb. That means my mailman was
vulnerable to this specific issue:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2020-12137
which is a XSS issue, and, as such, it can hardly be the cause of my
problem. However I've now updated it nevertheless.
A few hours ago I received a FBL complaint notification about a monthly
subscription reminder marked as spam and actually coming from my server.
The subscription reminder was attached to the FBL complaint, so I could
see the mailman list subscribed email inside it, which is
ada3167eb87301cb4835917425f07...@libero.it: it's clearly a fake email
address or a real email address that's been created just for sending spam.
The real user that raised the complaint is not shown for obvious privacy
reasons, though I could discover it from the message id, but who cares,
he's right after all, but by double checking the message id I could
confirm the whole reminder is authentic and it actually went out of my
mailserver. It is attached here, except I've masked my real domain name
and my real server ip address.
My mailman subscription logs (/var/log/mailman/subscribe*) go back one
year and that fake email address does not appear in any of them, nor it
is listed in the current subscribers list. It obviously does NOT match
the email address of the user that received the spammed reminder and
that raised the complaint.
How did it happen? Is there a security flaw in my mailman setup? Where
should I start looking at?
