Further info could be found here (in french, sorry):

  http://www.certa.ssi.gouv.fr/site/CERTA-2008-AVI-607/

According to this page, the vulnerabilities only affect the 5.4 branch
and indeed http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/sympa.html:

Stable                          5.2.3-1.2+etch1
Stable Security Updates         5.2.3-1.2+etch1
Testing                         5.3.4-6.1
Unstable                        5.3.4-6.1 

So it appears that neither etch nor lenny is concerned.
Feel free to close this bug as the PTS now shows that the latest
version available is 5.4.4.

Cheers,
