Package: alpine
Version: 2.02-3.1
Severity: normal


alpine (re-alpine) uses DES-56 to encrypt S/MIME messages.  This is very 
insecure by modern standards and is in violation of RFC 5751.

This issue was reported upstream and a patch produced 
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3428168&group_id=264924&atid=1128048),
 
but has not been addressed in a release of re-alpine.  The patch on the 
linked page changes the default encryption algorithm to AES-128 (CBC 
mode), which is sufficiently strong for modern use.

Due to the security issues surrounding the use of DES-56 in 2012, I 
believe this should be patched in the alpine package even if re-alpine 
does not produce a release with the patch.
