That is the standard procedure as decided by both JED and VEL teams.

The reported security issue on SecurityFocus relates to a security exploit in an older version of DOCman (1.3). It's an issue that was fixed for DOCman 1.4 and 1.5

Exploit

The actual exploit was published on PacketStorm security. This is the link to the post : http://packetstormsecurity.org/files/10 ... ction.html

The demo URL for the exploit goes to : http://www.voicilepoux.org. This site is running Mambo and not Joomla. See : http://www.voicilepoux.org/administrator/

The version of DOCman installed on this site is : 1.3.0 and dates back to September 2005. See : http://www.voicilepoux.org/administrato ... ngelog.txt

Solution

User who are still using DOCman 1.3 should immediatly upgrade to the latest 1.4.2 or 1.5.10 version.

Based on this information can I please ask to re-publish our DOCman listing as soon as possible and remove the information about the exploit from the wiki.
