(CVE-2020-1931) * A command execution issue was found in Apache SpamAssassin: Carefully crafted nefarious rule configuration (`.cf`) files can be configured to run system commands similar to CVE-2018-11805. With this bug unpatched, exploits can be injected in a number of scenarios including the same privileges as `spamd` is run which may be elevated though doing so remotely is difficult. In addition to upgrading we again recommend that users should only use update channels or 3rd party `.cf` files from trusted places.
