--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Legacy Test Update Notification FEDORALEGACY-2005-129284 Bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129284 2005-06-04 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : spamassassin Versions : fc2: spamassassin-2.64-2.1.legacy Summary : Spam filter for email which can be invoked from mail delivery agents. Description : SpamAssassin provides you with a way to reduce if not completely eliminate Unsolicited Commercial Email (SPAM) from your incoming email. It can be invoked by a MDA such as sendmail or postfix, or can be called from a procmail script, .forward file, etc. It uses a genetic-algorithm evolved scoring system to identify messages which look spammy, then adds headers to the message so they can be filtered by the user's mail reading software. This distribution includes the spamd/spamc components which create a server that considerably speeds processing of mail. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: An updated spamassassin package that fixes a denial of service bug when parsing malformed messages is now available. SpamAssassin provides a way to reduce unsolicited commercial email (SPAM) from incoming email. A denial of service bug has been found in SpamAssassin versions below 2.64. A malicious attacker could construct a message in such a way that would cause spamassassin to stop responding, potentially preventing the delivery or filtering of email. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0796 to this issue. Users of SpamAssassin should update to these updated packages which contain an updated version and is not vulnerable to this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Changelogs fc2: * Fri May 06 2005 Marc Deslauriers <marcdeslauriers@xxxxxxxxxxxx> 2.64-2.1.legacy - Updated to 2.64 to fix CAN-2004-0796 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedoralegacy.org/ (sha1sums) fc2: 6b7fbf447dce761c6dc6c85df6cc336cb31a939a fedora/2/updates-testing/i386/spamassassin-2.64-2.1.legacy.i386.rpm 8808655655b574f905a0308f0a0eca0c5e7d09c8 fedora/2/updates-testing/SRPMS/spamassassin-2.64-2.1.legacy.src.rpm --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please test and comment in bugzilla.
