- CVE-2020-35680: A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in smtpd/lka_filter.c
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a crafted
pattern of client activity, because the filter state machine does not properly
maintain the I/O channel between the SMTP engine and the filters layer.");
