Package : spamassassin
CVE ID : CVE-2018-11805 CVE-2019-12420
Debian Bug : 946652 946653
Two vulnerabilities were discovered in spamassassin, a Perl-based spam
filter using text analysis.
CVE-2018-11805
Malicious rule or configuration files, possibly downloaded from an
updates server, could execute arbitrary commands under multiple
scenarios.
