Description Aude 2014-06-29 13:30:17 UTC
the bugmeister sender and signature should be updated (Andre instead of Mark) in the "Email from Wikimedia's Bugzilla" that got sent out about being default CC.
Comment 1 Andre Klapper 2014-06-29 15:24:05 UTC
That "Email from Wikimedia's Bugzilla" is not sent by us, see headers:

> Received: from fiji.lbl.gov (fiji.lbl.gov. [128.3.61.98])

Obviously folks over there copied old stuff from Wikimedia:
* http://fiji.lbl.gov/mediawiki/
* http://fiji.lbl.gov/mediawiki/wmfmailadmin/
Whatever triggers those emails at lbl.gov, it's an old staging ground.

There is nothing we can fix on our side. hexmode wanted to email them. 

I am now CC'ing random folks with a @lbl.gov address on this ticket, as this is distracting and misleading ("identity theft" is a too strong term though).
Comment 2 Tyler Romeo 2014-06-29 15:32:35 UTC
Don't we have SPF turned on?

Comment 4 Aude 2014-06-29 16:40:23 UTC
interesting.... did not look at the headers.

I see that i got these emails in the past years, never replied and still am cc ;)

*** Bug 67277 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 6 Krinkle 2014-06-29 19:00:19 UTC
Hm..  indeed. My reply bounced because mhershberger@wikimedia.org no longer exists – as Mark works independently now.
Comment 7 Michael Jennings 2014-06-29 21:22:23 UTC
I have contacted the scientists responsible for that server as well as our Cybersecurity team.  I will update you all via this bug as I hear back from them.
Comment 8 Andre Klapper 2014-06-29 22:19:30 UTC
Michael: Thank you so much for your help!
Comment 9 Michael Jennings 2014-06-29 23:27:29 UTC
Not a problem, Andre.  Glad to help.

fiji.lbl.gov has been taken off the Internet by our security group until the misconfiguration is fixed and the code updated.  For purposes of this ticket I think the issue can be considered resolved.  :-)
Comment 10 Andre Klapper 2014-06-30 10:39:58 UTC
Awesome. That was fast. Thank you!

Closing ticket as FIXED; anybody please reopen if you still receive such mail.
