Hi all,

fixed in assp 2.4.2 build 14150:

**** ATTENTION ****

this version will make changes to the assp.cfg file, 
which are incompatible to all previouse versions
ASSP will make a backup copy of the assp.cfg file at startup, 
the backup file will be named as:
assp_version.build.cfg.bak for example assp_2.4.2.14145.cfg.bak

it is recommended to make a manual backup of the assp.cfg file before 
starting this version

*******************

- under certain conditions it was possible that the DNS-server check was 
doing strange things if
  Net::DNS version 0.76 is installed - if you see DNS problems downgrade 
to version 0.74

- The different setup of the MessageScore and IPScore (eg '20,30') in 
several *Valence values was not working
  if weights were used. If weights are used, the IPScore is now calculated 
base on (weight * IPScore / MessageScore)

- This release fixes several security vulnerables. It was possible that an 
AdminUser could take over system
  control by adapting the rights of the assp process user, with simple 
configuration changes.
 
  1. it was possible to define regular expression that executes embedded 
perl code
  2. several parameters (like for example FileScanCmd and AutoRestartCmd) 
could be set to run any system code
 
  All configuaration parameters that are related to system calls or 
commands are now stored encrypted and could 
  only be changed by the 'root' user.
  If a defined regular expression tries to execute any perl code, the 
complete configuration value will be ignored.
  Several other security related configuration parameters are now stored 
encrypted.
 
  An AdminUser was able to get login information for other accounts by 
accessing the file notes/configdefaults.txt
  AdminUsers are no longer able to access the file 
notes/configdefaults.txt (only root access) 

- a wrong warning "the system select->() call of your operating system 
does not support milliseconds 
  as timeout value - USE ANOTHER OPERATING SYSTEM !!!" was logged at 
startup



changes:

- the SMTP 'AUTH=' extension for the 'MAIL FROM:' command is now processed

- the IPinHelo missmatch code is improved to prevent wrong 'failed' 
detections

- if an user or server is authenticated, assp appends now the 'A' to the 
received mode in our received header line
  SMTPA,ESMTPA,SMTPSA,ESMTPSA

- the used SSL-version is now shown in our received header in addition to 
the still shown SSL-cipher 

- if the information is available in an analyzed mail, the analyzer now 
shows, if the sender was authenticated
  to any server in the mail transport chain

- if any entry in the PTRCache has a state of '0' (unchecked), this entry 
will be validated with the
  cache maintenance routine.
 

added:

- It is now possible to reduce the MessageScore and IPScore in case the 
Bayesian and/or HMM check detected HAM,
  to prevent false positives

'bayshamValencePB','Bayesian HAM Bonus, default=0 +'
'Message/IP scoring bonus (zero or negative value only)

'HMMhamValencePB','Hidden-Makov-Model HAM Bonus, default=0 +',
'Message/IP scoring bonus (zero or negative value only)

!! scoring stats are updated - a new ASSP_MIB and assp-mrtg.cfg file is 
released !!
