medium Nessus Plugin ID 20189

Synopsis

The remote Fedora Core host is missing a security update.

Description

Solves CVE-2005-3351 and a few other minor bugs to improve spam detection accuracy. You could consider this a release candidate for 3.0.5.

Also solved is #161785 which ensures that 'service spamassassin restart' should never fail.

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

Solution

Update the affected spamassassin and / or spamassassin-debuginfo packages.
