EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : spamassassin (EulerOS-SA-2022-1764)

high Nessus Plugin ID 161555

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the spamassassin package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - A command execution issue was found in Apache SpamAssassin prior to 3.4.3. Carefully crafted nefarious rule configuration (.cf) files can be configured to run system commands similar to CVE-2018-11805. With this bug unpatched, exploits can be injected in a number of scenarios including the same privileges as spamd is run which may be elevated though doing so remotely is difficult. In addition to upgrading to SA 3.4.4, we again recommend that users should only use update channels or 3rd party .cf files from trusted places. If you cannot upgrade, do not use 3rd party rulesets, do not use sa-compile and do not run spamd as an account with elevated privileges. (CVE-2020-1930)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected spamassassin packages.
