Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:103 (spamassassin)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to spamassassin announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:103. A flaw was discovered in the way that spamd processes the virtual POP usernames passed to it. If running with the --vpopmail and --paranoid flags, it is possible for a remote user with the ability to connect to the spamd daemon to execute arbitrary commands as the user running spamd. By default, the Spamassassin packages do not start spamd with either of these flags and this usage is uncommon. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. Affected: 10.2, 2006.0, Corporate 3.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2006:103 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 5.1
