[Bug 6498] New: RCVD_ILLEGAL_IP IPv6 false positive

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6498

           Summary: RCVD_ILLEGAL_IP IPv6 false positive
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 7
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Rules
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: m.oe@gmx.net


The following header was generated by Exchange 2007 mailbox server and triggers
RCVD_ILLEGAL_IP:

Received: from hub-role-server (unknown [10.10.10.99])
     by external-server (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1F540175CC0
     for <recipient>; Tue, 28 Sep 2010 15:45:33 +0200 (CEST)
Received: from mailbox-role-server
     ([fe80:0000:0000:0000:1983:5370:232.255.92.69]) by
     hub-role-server ([10.10.10.99]) with mapi; Tue, 28 Sep 2010
     15:45:33 +0200

This is normally called "IPv6 Mixed Notation"
Microsoft calls this IPv6 "Trailing dotted decimal notation"

It seems to trigger a rule made for IPv4 addresses and fails.

It was fixed in Bug 6460 comment 15 for 3.3 and trunk.
Closing.

As far as I can tell, RCVD_ILLEGAL_IP does not exist in 3.3.1, and in 3.2.5 it
only looks at IPV4 addresses.

Looks like this was fixed in trunk by Bug 6465 comment 4.
To be committed to 3.3 too.

--- Comment #1 from software+spamassassin@kd6lvw.ampr.org 2010-09-28 17:16:54 UTC ---
I thought that "mixed notation" (an IPv4 address inside an IPv6 address) was
legal only for those IPv4's in ::/80 (i.e. ::/96 [deprecated] and
::FFFF:0:0/96).  Therefore, the rule is valid.

"fe80::1983:5370:232.255.92.69" is not a valid IPv6 address of any sort.

References:  RFC 5952, Section 5, and older: RFC 4291, Section 2.5.5.
