[announce] Horde Groupware 1.1.3 (final)

[Jan Schneider]

The Horde Team is pleased to announce the final release of the Horde Groupware
version 1.1.3.

This is a security release that fixes unescaped output in the MIME library
(CVE-2008-3823), and further improves the XSS filter for HTML messages
(CVE-2008-3824). The unescaped output vulnerability can be triggered by
sending specially crafted e-mail messages to Horde Groupware users, e.g. if
they use a Horde mail client. Since Horde Groupware doesn't contain a mail
client or any applications that use either of the affected libraries, users
are only vulnerable if additional applications, that use them, have been
installed.

Many thanks to Alexios Fakos for detecting these vulnerabilities, and oCERT
for notifying us.

Horde Groupware is a free, enterprise ready, browser based collaboration
suite. Users can manage and share calendars, contacts, tasks and notes  
with the
standards compliant components from the Horde Project.

The major changes compared to the Horde Groupware version 1.1.2 are:
     * Fixed unescaped output in the MIME library.
     * Further improved the XSS filter for HTML.
