From Red Hat Security Advisory 2007:0492 :

Updated spamassassin packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

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.
