RE: [cobalt-security] RaQ3/RaQ4 Qpopper-4.0.5fc2 PKG released

["Michael Aronoff" <ma@xxxxxxxx>]

I am top posting because the full text of the original post is important
in this case.

I can confirm the same behavior.  I have 2 Raq4's with the updated
Qpopper and I had to manually remove the md5lst as well before the
update would install properly.

That being said once installed everything is great and the new Qpopper
is so much faster than the regular cobalt installed version.

The first time I tried to isntall the PKG through the
GUI -after it asked me if I wanted to upgrade over
4.0.4 to the new version (and I replied yes) -when the
screen came back, version 4.0.4 was still showing as
the installed version. Down in the corner of the IE
browser there was that little java script warning
message that said something about an error in the
script and this for the URL:

https://<IP>:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/install/install.cgi?page=installreplace&
id=20819&package=%20RaQ34-Solarspeed.net-Qpopper%20

So I checked with:

[root@www /etc]# popper -v
sh: popper: command not found

Then I hit the popper with my mail client and it was
still running the 4.0.4 version:

Mar 12 22:00:51 www in.qpopper[21961]: (v4.0.4) POP
login by user "admin" at <IP>

So I went back to the GUI and tried to reinstall it
again -after being asked if I wanted to update from
4.0.4 to the new version (and replying yes) it came
back with:

This package cannot be uninstalled.

But this time no java error in the browser.. So I went
to /var/lib/cobalt/uninstallers/ and my

RaQ34-Solarspeed.net-Qpopper-4.0.4.uninst

file had been removed, but
RaQ34-Solarspeed.net-Qpopper-4.0.4.md5lst was still
showing up under /var/lib/cobalt/.  I just delete this
file (RaQ34-Solarspeed.net-Qpopper-4.0.4.md5lst) and
returned to the GUI and tried the install again, and
this time it went in without any problem.

I hit the popper with my admin account and that time
it reflected the new version and all was well.. :-)
