- The extent of your exposure to this vulnerability depends on factors such

-do not currently know the exact combination that enables the hole, although we
-currently believe that Apache 2.0 sites are not vulnerable and that that many

- For additional peace of mind, it is

-the Mailman 2.1.6 reset_pw.py script. Put this file
