Package: sa-exim
Version: 4.2-2
Severity: critical
Tags: security
The new upstream release (2006/01/09 - v4.2.1) states:
Security update (reported by Chris Morris)
Modified Greylisting.pm not to generate tuplets with spaces, although
the cleaning cron job is now safe with regard to whitespace
Included Mark Lawrence's perl script to better clean old tuplets
The default config now ships with the greylistclean cronjob running as
nobody (which spamd should be running as, too)

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your report; I'm closing it because:
- it is already reported (345071)
- this isn't critical "introduces a security hole on systems
where you install the package." because a) it isn't installed
by default and b) I've already patched in a fix for sa-exim
which is in both unstable and testing.
- the remainder of the report ("new upstream") is also covered
by other reports.
Thanks,
Anand
