Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:156
http://www.mandriva.com/security/

Package : inn
Date : October 2, 2012
Affected: 2011.

Problem Description:

A security issue was identified and fixed in ISC INN:

The STARTTLS implementation in INN's NNTP server for readers, nnrpd,
before 2.5.3 does not properly restrict I/O buffering, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to insert commands into encrypted sessions
by sending a cleartext command that is processed after TLS is in place,
related to a plaintext command injection attack, a similar issue to
CVE-2011-0411 (CVE-2012-3523).

The updated packages have been upgraded to inn 2.5.3 which is not
vulnerable to this issue.
