Log Message:
Pullup ticket 2111 - requested by heinz
security update for spamassassin
- pkgsrc/mail/spamassassin/Makefile patch
- pkgsrc/mail/spamassassin/distinfo patch
Update to SpamAssassin 3.1.9 to fix a denial of service vulnerability. The
package has been updated to SpamAssassin 3.2.1 on pkgsrc-HEAD but this major
new version will not be pulled up to the stable branch.
Changes in Spamassassin 3.1.9:
- bug 5480: fix for CVE-2007-2873: a local user symlink-attack DoS
vulnerability. It only affects systems where spamd is run as root, is used
with vpopmail or virtual users via the "-v"/"--vpopmail" OR
"--virtual-config-dir" switch, AND with the "-x"/"--no-user-config AND
WITHOUT the "-u"/"--username" switch AND with the "-l"/"--allow-tell"
switch. This is not default on any distro package, and is not a common
configuration. More details of the vulnerability can be read at
<http://spamassassin.apache.org/advisories/cve-2007-2873.txt>.
- bug 5353 - meta rule parsing should handle not equal ("!=") syntax.
- set the score for URI_TRUNCATED to 0.001.
- bug 5337: change the start order for Fedora such that spamd starts before
the MTA.
