Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for imp4 some time ago.

CVE-2010-0463[0]:
| Horde IMP 4.3.6 and earlier does not request that the web browser
| avoid DNS prefetching of domain names contained in e-mail messages,
| which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine the network
| location of the webmail user by logging DNS requests.

Unfortunately the vulnerability described above is not important enough
to get it fixed via regular security update in Debian stable.
It does not warrant a DSA.

However it would be nice if this could get fixed via a regular point
update[1].
Please contact the release team for this.

This is an automatically generated mail, in case you are already working
on an
upgrade this is of course pointless.
