An update that solves one vulnerability and has one errata
is now available.

Description:

This update for claws-mail fixes the following issues:

  • Additional cleanup of the template handling

claws-mail was updated to 3.17.8 (boo#1177967)

 * Shielded template's |program{} and |attach_program{} so that the
   command-line that is executed does not allow sequencing such as with
   && || ;, preventing possible execution of nasty, or at least
   unexpected, commands
 * bug fixes: claws#4376
 * updated English, French, and Spanish manuals
  • Update to 3.17.7

    • Image Viewer: Image attachments, when displayed, are now resized to
      fit the available width rather than the available height.

      SpamAssassin’s maximum; it can now handle messages up to 256MB.
