Bug#860762: courier-mta: certificate verification failure for CNAMEs



Package: courier-mta
Version: 0.73.1-1.6
Severity: important
Tags: fixed-upstream patch pending

Hi,

as Viktor Szépe recently pointed out to me, courier-mta fails to verify
certificates of other MTAs using CNAMEs as their host name. With Amazon
SES, Mailjet, etc. this recently became more common and therefore more
important to fix.

Upstream provides a fix [0] that's easy enough to backport to stretch. I
haven't tried jessie, yet.

Kind Regards

Markus Wanner
