CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2007:0492

SpamAssassin provides a way to reduce unsolicited commercial email (spam)
from incoming email.

Martin Krafft discovered a symlink issue in SpamAssassin that affects
certain non-default configurations. A local user could use this flaw to
create or overwrite files writable by the spamd process (CVE-2007-2873).

Users of SpamAssassin should upgrade to these updated packages which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.

Note: This issue did not affect the version of SpamAssassin shipped with
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.
