Apache SpamAssassin 3.4.5 was recently released [1], and fixes an issue of
security note where malicious rule configuration (.cf) files can be configured
to run system commands.
In Apache SpamAssassin before 3.4.5, exploits can be injected in a number of
scenarios. In addition to upgrading to SA 3.4.5, users should only use update
channels or 3rd party .cf files from trusted places.
Apache SpamAssassin would like to thank Damian Lukowski at credativ for
ethically reporting this issue.
This issue has been assigned CVE id CVE-2020-1946 [2]
