Package: hylafax-client Version: 1:4.2.1-2 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/sendfax
sendfax accepts and processes some file types, but not others. For example, .ps and .pdf seem to be handled fine, but .png is not processed at all, rather being sent as a raw file. hylafax implements its own method for determining what to do with a file (/etc/hylafax/typerules) - but this file is not kept up-to-date with /etc/magic, (or any other list of common file formats). At present, the default rules shipped munge anything not found to ascii. This means non-specified graphics files! Adding a "test for non-printables" check at the end of /etc/hylafax/typerules would seem to catch this, but it would be hard to code.
