------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Jan 29 06:55:51 UTC 2017 - varkoly@suse.com - bnc#1014205 L3: /etc/sysconfig/amavis missing - bnc#1014157 L3: amavisd-new needs sa-update ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Sep 17 11:57:30 UTC 2015 - wr@rosenauer.org - require perl-Convert-BinHex as otherwise startup fails if the package is missing (bnc#942254) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat Aug 16 10:31:29 CEST 2014 - ro@suse.de - add /bin/logger as prereq (util-linux split) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jan 1 13:17:13 UTC 2014 - wr@rosenauer.org - add some recommended decoders (bnc#754852) - fixed amavisd-milter invocation (bnc#809969) - correctly set clamd socket to (/var/run/clamav/clamd-socket) (bnc#844575) - some spec file cleanup including using optflags for native code ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Nov 12 13:40:03 UTC 2013 - wr@rosenauer.org - Add real systemd support; add required macros in %post/postun sections and drop sysvinit support on openSUSE >= 12.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Oct 22 15:51:56 UTC 2013 - varkoly@suse.com - bnc#844575 - amavis received a change where /var/run was replaced with /run still /var/run is present ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Oct 3 15:56:34 UTC 2013 - opensuse@cboltz.de - fix clamd socket location (bnc#809580) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Sep 25 09:10:34 UTC 2013 - varkoly@suse.com - bnc#831556 - naming mismatch for amavis and systemd ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat Sep 14 18:40:10 UTC 2013 - wr@rosenauer.org - update to version 2.8.1 COMPATIBILITY when 0MQ (a.k.a. ZeroMQ) is used between Amavis components as an internal messaging protocol, make sure to replace all 0MQ-enabled Amavis components on upgrading amavisd, as the internal protocol has changed slightly, taking advantage of 0MQ multi-part messages for better performance. Affected programs are: amavis-services, amavisd-status, amavisd-snmp-subagent-zmq, and amavisd. NOTE: The Crossroads I/O project (libxs) ceased development on July 2012, to be replaced by nanomsg eventually by the same author. The 0MQ library (libzmq) is currently (2013) the best choice, the preferred library version is 3.2.2 or later along with the ZMQ::LibZMQ3 Perl interface module and ZMQ::Constants. The older version 2 of the library, along with an older perl module ZeroMQ, should be fine too, but lacks support for IPv6. amavisd is compatible with perl 5.18.0 and with SpamAssassin 3.4.0 NEW FEATURES SUMMARY * new Redis storage for the "pen pals" feature; * improved IPv6 support; * support for p0f v3; * new macros ip_trace_all and ip_trace_public; * amavisd-status now shows a bar graph display of the number of active processes; * the timing report log entry can show CPU usage at log level 2 if a module Unix::Getrusage is available; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed May 29 20:03:41 UTC 2013 - crrodriguez@opensuse.org - Fix multiple bugs in systemd unit, syslog.target should not be used and Wants must be used instead of requires in most cases. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu May 2 07:45:54 UTC 2013 - meissner@suse.com - use %defattr correctly to make /var/spool/amavis not worldreadable. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Feb 25 08:09:22 UTC 2013 - mlin@suse.com - Install amavisd.service accordingly (/usr/lib/systemd for 12.3 and up or /lib/systemd for older versions). ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Feb 6 08:52:23 UTC 2013 - aj@ajaissle.de - update to version 2.8.0 - COMPATIBILITY 2.8.0 * removed an old compatibility measure: default value of @banned_admin_maps was changed from: @banned_admin_maps = (\$banned_admin, \%virus_admin, \$virus_admin); to a more consistent: @banned_admin_maps = (\$banned_admin); The previous default value of @banned_admin_maps tried to maintain compatibility with versions before the setting was separated from its companion @virus_admin_maps. Now this compatibility is no longer considered necessary and contributes to some confusion, so it was dropped. See 2.4.0 and 2.2.1 release notes for previous changes to this setting. * quarantining to an mbox format file used to include a local time in an mbox separator line, which differs from RFC 4155 and common practices of using an UTC timestamp; a time zone of a timestamp in separator lines is now changed to UTC; - BUG FIXES 2.8.0 * fixed initial evaluation of dynamic (i.e. per policy bank) values of $enable_dkim_verification, $enable_dkim_signing and $bypass_decode_parts across all declared policy banks; these policy bank entries may be scalars of references to such; * finely adjust a message size for de-stuffed dots according to a size definition in RFC 1870; avoids occasional message size mismatch when using an antispam interface module SpamdClient (implementing client-side of a spamc/spamd protocol); * updated LDAP.ldif to match LDAP.schema; provided by Quanah Gibson-Mount; * updated AMAVIS-MIB.txt and amavisd-snmp-subagent: changed type of SNMP variables *MsgsSize* in the group amavisStats 7 from Counter32 to Counter64 for consistency with other *MsgsSize* variables in groups amavisStats 3 and amavisStats 9; - NEW FEATURES SUMMARY 2.8.0 * For monitoring and statistics gathering purposes a new set of utilities and service processes is available based on a message passing paradigm, using a 0MQ (a.k.a. ZMQ, ZeroMQ, or Crossroads I/O) library. This replaces a functionally similar set of utilities based on a shared BerkeleyDB database, with a benefit of avoiding lock contention altogether. This can bring sigificant speedups, most pronounced on a host with many busy amavisd child processes. * Applied numerous fine-grained optimizations based on a NYTProf profiler results. Optimizations include a reduction in a number of generated Perl opcodes and similar micro-optimizations. This accounts for a large amount of small changes in the code. * Our current statistics (Q4 2011) shows that 80 % of messages are below 30.000 bytes, and 90 % of mail messages are below 100.000 bytes in size. As an optimization, messages below 100 KiB in size are now kept and processed in memory, including passing them more optimally to SpamAssassin 3.4.0. Some file activity is still there, but is much reduced. If $TEMPBASE also resides on an SSD disk (or a RAM disk), observed speedup between 2.7.2 and 2.8.0 was 3 to 8 percent on a busy host (with monitoring disabled, so as not to skew a measurement). * Use a module IO::Socket::IP if available, instead of dealing directly with low-level modules IO::Socket::INET and IO::Socket::INET6; * choose more appropriate defaults if running on an IPv6-only host (like connecting to ::1 instead of 127.0.0.1 which may not exist); * amavisd-release now also supports connecting to amavisd over IPv6; * as a debugging aid it is now possible that a late event triggers full logging of earlier events that occurred during processing of a current mail message; * $enable_ldap setting is now dynamic, i.e. can be changed by a policy bank, which makes it possible to selectively disable LDAP lookups per policy bank; * optionally avoid persistent connections to SQL and LDAP servers; * it is now possible to disable calling an external file(1) utility but still have MIME parts decoding enabled; * added support in Amavis::SpamControl::ExtProg for an external spam scanner Bogofilter; * added locking options to @spam_scanners entries, to be used with external scanners which need but do not implement locking of their resources by themselves; * added a global configuration setting $sa_userprefs_file, which is passed on to SpamAssassin as a 'userprefs_filename' parameter at initialization; * added a subroutine iso8601_weekday(), potentially useful with partitioning; * added several new macros available to logging and notification templates; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Dec 27 23:29:51 UTC 2012 - wr@rosenauer.org - update to version 2.7.2 * a generated Received header field was missing the 'IPv6:' prefix in the TCP-info component of a 'by' subfield (as required by RFC 5321, section 4.1.3) when amavisd received a message over an IPv6 protocol; (btw, the TCP-info component of a 'from' subfield was correct); * changed data type of an SNMP variable LogRetries from C32 to C64 for consistency with the MIB; * updated AV entry 'AVG Anti-Virus' to consider status 403 continuation lines when searching for a virus name; suggested by Ralf Hildebrandt; * reduce a log level to 5 on a log message: Amavis::IO::RW: Error flushing on close: ... to avoid an innocent but sinister-looking warning when a pipe to a virus scanner is broken and needs to be re-established; reported by Stefan Jakobs * updated an AV entry for 'F-Secure Linux Security' to version 9.14; options updated by Mika Ilmaranta, a patch by Tuomo Soini; * fix a Unix socket compatibility issue with Net::Server versions 2.000, 2.001 and 2.002, where a method NS_unix_path no longer exists. This method was re-introduced for compatibility reasons in 2.003. Reported by Paul MacKenzie; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Aug 27 09:14:08 UTC 2012 - dmueller@suse.com - unarj was dropped from Factory, remove dependency to it ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jun 25 10:36:36 UTC 2012 - varkoly@suse.com - fix the systemd service file ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Apr 26 21:11:48 UTC 2012 - chris@computersalat.de - fix build for < 1210 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jan 4 14:47:42 UTC 2012 - varkoly@suse.com - bnc#706257 - amavis failed to start during boot, however it is active ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Nov 4 06:23:56 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.com - Add systemd scripts ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Nov 2 10:05:41 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.com - Fix amavisd-milter binary name ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Oct 26 08:58:10 UTC 2011 - wr@rosenauer.org - obsolete amavisd-milter package ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Oct 13 13:11:20 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.com - Integrate amavisd-milter ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Oct 11 14:22:57 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.com - bnc#718025 - amavisd-new 2.7.0 fails to start ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat Sep 17 11:02:03 UTC 2011 - jengelh@medozas.de - Remove redundant tags/sections from specfile ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Sep 13 13:24:37 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.com - update to 2.7.0 With a synergy of four solutions, using amavisd-new in a pre-queue filtering setup became a sensible / better behaved solution: - old helper programs amavis.c and amavis-milter.c are no longer distributed with the package, along with the whole helper-progs subdirectory. As a milter client please use the more modern 'amavisd-milter' package by Petr Rehor, available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/amavisd-milter/ - the "smtpd_proxy_options=speed_adjust" Postfix option, available since Postfix 2.7.0 (20091101), improves decoupling between SMTP clients and a content filter in a proxy setup, reducing the number of content filtering processes needed for the same mail load. With this option turned on, a Postfix SMTP server receives the entire message before connecting to a before-queue content filter; - a master_deadline option and its API equivalent, available in SpamAssassin since version 3.3.0, allows for time limiting on lengthy rules checking, while still providing results when a time limit is exceeded; this makes it more suitable for time-sensitive setups like a pre-queue filtering setup; - reworked sub-task time limiting in amavisd, along with its counterpart solution in SpamAssassin, makes it better suited to a real-time nature of pre-queue filtering setups, where one has no control over how long SMTP clients are willing to wait at the data-end stage; - a re-purposed command line option 'reload' now does a warm restart, keeping sockets available to an MTA client at all times, thus reducing a chance that an MTA would even notice a content filter's warm restart. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Aug 30 15:22:40 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.com - bnc#710289 - amavisd-new: fails rpmlint check non-ghost-in-var-run ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Jul 12 16:02:45 UTC 2011 - varkoly@novell.com - Enable clamav as integrated scanner - Enable Avira Antivir personal ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue May 24 08:02:50 UTC 2011 - varkoly@suse.de - update to 2.6.6 - amavisd-release was not sending a 'mail_file' attribute when a quarantined message was a non-compressed file in a single-level directory quarantine - quarantining to SQL was sporadically failing, reporting some unrelated random error (like 'not available' or 'OpenSSL error: header too long'); - avoid a warning "_WARN: Use of uninitialized value in string eq at ... line 275." when an SQL-based white/black-listing is used; - wrap the sql clause SET NAMES 'utf8' so that only a warning at a log level 2 is issued if an SQL server does not understand the command (SQLite, old versions of MySQL) instead of aborting; - when a back-end MTA rejected a message, amavisd would send a non-delivery status notification, but also propagate the reject status back, which is wrong, only one or the other response would be appropriate. A fix also allows choosing either a D_REJECT, D_BOUNCE or D_DISCARD response for such a case, configurable through %final_destiny_by_ccat at a CC_MTA entry, defaulting to D_REJECT; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Feb 21 18:57:25 UTC 2011 - varkoly@novell.com - bnc#663726 - amavisd-new: group of /var/spool/amavis conflicts with av programms ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Feb 20 10:41:40 UTC 2011 - coolo@novell.com - unrar should not be required (non-free software now) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jun 24 10:18:46 UTC 2010 - varkoly@novell.com - bnc#614316 - amavisd-new: amavisd-new/README.SuSE does not match /etc/amavisd.conf ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon May 10 10:49:10 UTC 2010 - varkoly@novell.com - bnc#600409 - amavisd not starting after system crash because of stale pid file ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jul 20 14:52:09 CEST 2009 - varkoly@suse.de - bnc#521366 - Amavisd-new sends bounces when it isn't allowed to do so (backscatter!) - update to 2.6.4 BUG FIXES - amavisd failed to start when spam scanning was disabled either by @bypass_spam_checks_maps=(1) or by @spam_scanners=(), giving: Can't locate object method "new" via package "Amavis::SpamControl" - several decoders failed to propagate "Exceeded storage quota" exception, so the protection of AV scanners against mail bombs was ineffective; - milter usage (AM.PDP): verbatim header edits inserted a header body of "1" instead of the correct string, for example: "Authentication-Results: 1"; - updated AV entry for BitDefender's bdscan to recognize tabs around a colon in its output; contributed by Steve; - fix parsing of a combined result from DSPAM (option --classify), as earlier versions of DSPAM did not include a signature with a combined result line; - when logging to SQL (pen pals), the msgs.message_id field always received a value '1' instead of a Message-Id, thus making pen pals less effective (only matching on sender/recipient pairs worked, not on message threads) and letting some bounces bypass a bounce killer; bug was introduced with version 2.6.2; - timer was not reset after a persistent failure to connect to a daemonized virus scanner, so a subsequent call to a backup scanner only had 10 seconds available before it was aborted, which was often too short for a command line backup scanner like clamscan; - if a virus scanner interface did not find a name of a virus in the output of a virus scanner (despite noticing infection), the infection was ignored; - added missing /m flags to regular expressions in AV entries (a bug is revealed with Perl 5.10.0; previous versions of Perl happened to work, unintentionally accepting a /m flag if added late during a regexp evaluation); - $banned_namepath_re setting only worked globally, but was not usable in policy banks; - do_uncompress: signal run_command_copy() errors, instead of returning a status, thus allowing decompose_part() to detect 'Exceeded storage quota' or 'Maximum number of files exceeded', and flag mail as CC_UNCHECKED; - if $mailfrom_notify_admin was not specified in a configuration file but defaulted to an e-mail address in $hdrfrom_notify_admin, the following was reported (due to missing angle brackets) on an attempt to submit a notification: (!)SEND via SMTP: virusalert@example.com -> <virusalert@example.com>... 501 5.1.7 Bad sender address syntax (!)FAILED to notify admin: 501 5.1.7 Failed, id=40690-23, from MTA([::1]:10027): 501 5.1.7 Bad sender address syntax Notification was not sent, the rest of the processing was unaffected; - fetch_modules: only suppress the "Can't locate ... in @INC" diagnostics if exactly the requested module is missing, but do show the error if some subordinate module is missing and preventing the requested module to be loaded; - do_unrar: recognize an information line with a '<->'; - fixed a syntax error in LDAP.ldif; - fixed a bug in SpamdClient; NEW FEATURES SUMMARY - provide a true SNMP agent and a MIB, facilitating monitoring the health of a content filtering system, its performance and mail characteristics; - a new AV interface to SMTP-based antivirus scanners; - allow customizing SMTP-status response reason text for blocked messages; - prevent inserting fake copies of certain important mail header fields without breaking a DKIM signature; - added a configuration variable @client_ipaddr_policy, which maps smtp client's IP address lookup lists to a policy bank name. This allows for loading a policy bank based on a client IP address, and generalizes a formerly hard-wired mapping of @mynetworks_maps into 'MYNETS'. - large messages beyond $sa_mail_body_size_limit are now partially passed to SpamAssassin and other spam scanners for checking: a copy passed to a spam scanner is truncated near or slightly past the indicated limit. Large messages are no longer given an almost free passage through spam checks. - supports passing an extra argument suppl_attrib to $spamassassin->parse, as recognized by SpamAssassin 3.3.0, passing a set of DKIM signature objects to a SpamAssassin's plugin DKIM, which saves having to do the same signature verification operation again within a plugin, and provides uncrippled signatures to SpamAssassin even when a large message is truncated by amavisd and only partially submitted to spam analysis; - add global variables $sa_configpath and $sa_siteconfigpath (undef by default), which are passed to SpamAssassin as options 'rules_filename' and 'site_rules_filename' during its initialization call; this makes it easier to run multiple instances of amavisd, each with a different SpamAssassin configuration, using the same amavisd configurations file by taking advantage of option -i; suggested by Noah Baker; - report process resource usage at log level 2 by calling getrusage(1) if a perl module Unix::Getrusage is available; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jan 21 17:58:19 CET 2009 - ro@suse.de - drop requires for lha for post 11.1 (dropped package) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Dec 29 12:27:56 CET 2008 - lrupp@suse.de - update to 2.6.2: + bounce killer: improved detection of nonstandard bounces + bounces to be killed no longer waste SpamAssassin time + tool to convert dkim-filter keysfile into amavisd configuration + compatibility with SpamAssassin 3.3 (CVS head) regained + rewritten and expanded documentation section on DKIM signing and verification in amavisd-new-docs.html + the %sql_clause default has changed in detail, if its value is overridden in a configuration file the setting may need updating - don't patch it: use a regexp in the specfile to get rid of amavisd-new-suse.{dif,patch} - package p0f-analyzer.pl (a program to interface amavisd with a p0f utility) - remove outdated Obsoletes - dont enable clamd per default - its a user decision - added probe option to init script - compress the Release-Notes - Recommend clamav perl-spamassassin perl-ldap perl-Authen-SASL perl-DBI and perl-Mail-ClamAV - they are needed just in special cases - use package names in PreReq - split up amavisd-new-docs subpackage and package additional files - dont create the vscan user in the build system (not needed) - added amavisd-new-rpmlintrc ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Oct 28 15:10:21 CET 2008 - varkoly@suse.de - Require perl-Mail-DKIM - (bnc#439292) - amavisd.conf comes with wrong path to clamd socket ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Sep 1 11:59:23 CEST 2008 - kukuk@suse.de - Don't require unace, amavis does not know about it. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Aug 12 23:37:46 CEST 2008 - crrodriguez@suse.de - fix init scripts ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Jul 1 08:27:11 CEST 2008 - varkoly@suse.de - update to version 2.6.1 BUG FIXES - avoid a bounce-killer's false positive when a message is multipart/mixed with an attached message/rfc822 (looking like a qmail or a MSN bounce) and having attached a message with a foreign Message-ID - by restricting the check to messages with an empty sender address or a 'postmaster' or 'MAILER-DAEMON' author address; - privileges were dropped too early when chrooting, causing chroot to fail - fix unwarranted 'run_av error: Exceeded allowed time' error when using a virus scanned Mail::ClamAV; - fix a bug in helper-progs/amavis-milter.c where atoi could be reading from a non-null terminated string which could result in wrong milter return status, or even cause a read-access violation; - dsn_cutoff_level was ignored if SpamAssassin was not invoked (e.g. on large messages) even if recip_score_boost was nonzero, causing a DSN not to be suppressed for internally generated large score values; - add back the 'Ok, id=..., from MTA(...):' prefix to a MTA status responses on forwarded mail when generating own SMTP status response - replaced '-ErrFile=>*STDOUT' with '-ErrFile=>\*STDOUT' in a call to BerkeleyDB::Env::new in amavisd-nanny and amavisd-agent; NEW FEATURES - recognize an additional place-holder %P in a template used to build a file name in file-based quarantining. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Jun 27 16:26:11 CEST 2008 - varkoly@suse.de - openldap do not contains /etc/openldap anymore ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jun 25 12:42:02 CEST 2008 - varkoly@suse.de - update to version 2.6.0 - integrated DKIM signing and verification - loading of policy banks based on valid DKIM-signed author's address can be used for reliable whitelisting, for bypassing banned checks, etc. - bounce killer feature: uses a pen pals SQL lookup to check inbound DSN; - SQL logging and quarantining tables have a new field 'partition_tag'; - captures SpamAssassin logging, more flexibility specifying SA log areas; - collects and logs SpamAssassin timing breakdown report (requires SA 3.3); - releasing from a quarantine can push a released message to an attachment; - new experimental code for abuse reporting using formats: ARF/attach/plain; - TLS support on the SMTP client and server side; - connection caching by a SMTP client; - amavisd-nanny and amavisd-agent now re-open a database on amavisd restarts; - amavisd-nanny and amavisd-agent new command line option: -c count; - updated p0f-analyzer.pl to support source port number in queries; - amavisd can send queries either to p0f-analyzer.pl or directly to p0f; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jun 21 10:10:24 CEST 2007 - varkoly@suse.de - Bug 230822 Amavisd-release Misconfiguration - update to version 2.5.1 SECURITY - provides checking the number of archive members against $MAXFILES quota even when just listing an archive directory, providing some additional protection (besides a time limit) against runaway dearchivers (such as a recent Zoo archiver DoS); - please use the most recent versions of file(1) utility (currently 4.21) and recent versions of external dearchivers/decoders to avoid known security vulnerabilities in them; NEW FEATURES - introduced a variation of a message release from a quarantine, allowing a releaser to choose between forwarding a message to the back-end MTA port as usual (avoiding re-checking of a message), or to send it to MTA on its incoming port (normally 25) and let the message be rescanned, which might be useful after adjusting spam rules or antivirus database. It is implemented by: * adding a configuration variable $requeue_method (also a member of policy banks), with a default value: 'smtp:[127.0.0.1]:25' * extending the AM.PDP protocol with a 'request=requeue' attribute which can be used in place of a 'request=release', * enhancing the 'amavisd-release' utility program to choose between sending 'request=release' and 'request=requeue' based on its program name, i.e. by making a soft or hard link to amavisd-release (or its copy) named 'amavisd-requeue', the utility will send a 'request=requeue' in place of the usual 'request=release', e.g.: # ln -s amavisd-release amavisd-requeue $ amavisd-requeue spam/k/kg2P0rP9Lpu3.gz * enhancing amavisd daemon to choose between forwarding a released message either to $release_method or to $requeue_method destination based on a 'request' attribute value in an AM.PDP request; - new AV entry: ArcaVir for Linux and Unix, see below for links; - a new macro 'supplementary_info' gives access to some additional information provided by content scanners, such as a provided by SpamAssassin API routine get_tag. The macro takes two arguments, the first is a tag name (a name of some attribute which is expected to provide an associated value), the second argument is a sprintf format string and is optional, if missing a %s is assumed. Currently the only available attributes are AUTOLEARN, SC, SCRULE, SCTYPE, and RELAYCOUNTRY. These are nonempty only when an associated SpamAssassin plugin or function is enabled. BUG FIXES - fixed quarantining to a SQL database of messages with a null envelope sender address (broken in 2.5.0, causing such messages to tempfail); reported by Markus Edholm, Vahur Jõlu and Michael Scheidell; - fixed parsing of certain broken 'From' header fields, which would result in a temporary failure and the following logged error: check_init2 FAILED: parse_address_list PANIC1 53 at /usr/local/sbin/amavisd line 3292 reported by Michael Scheidell; - avoid encoding nonprintable characters in X-Envelope-From and X-Envelope-To header fields in a quarantined message even if envelope mail addresses contain such invalid characters, so that a quarantine release is possible; (RFC 2047 allows encoding of a 'phrase' in From, To, and similar headers, as well as in comments, but not in the address specification); - avoid unnecessarily RFC 2047 -encoding of 8-bit characters in those lines of inserted X-Spam-Report (and similar) multiline header fields which only contain ASCII characters; also avoid encoding of newlines; reported by Anant Nitya; - properly recognize PostgreSQL error code 'S8006' and reconnect to a disconnected server right away; thanks to Brian Wong; - call $mail_obj->finish after a SA call to allow for garbage collection and removal of SA temporary files; see: http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5444 - avoid nonstandard SMTP status code 254 on discarded malware; on discarding turn status 554 into a 250 instead; violation of a SHOULD in RFC 2822 pointed out by Alexander Bergolth; - an informational log message was reported inappropriately: INFO: truncated ... header line(s) longer than 998 characters it didn't reflect reality, it was always reported together with the: INFO: unfolded 1 illegal all-whitespace continuation lines - when a SMTP option BODY=8BITMIME (RFC 1652) is not given on mail reception, avoid turning it on while forwarding even if mail body contains 8-bit characters; following a garbage-in-garbage-out principle, this doesn't break anything that isn't already broken, but might prevent later conversion to 7-bit quoted-printable MIME by some downstream MTA, possibly preventing signature invalidations (DKIM, S/MIME, PGP, ...) - at a risk that some overzealous firewall might block a mail transfer; - fixed a couple of documentation typos/bugs in README.customize amavisd-new-2.5.0 release notes COMPATIBILITY WITH 2.4.5 The 2.5.0 is upwards compatible with 2.4.* versions. Nevertheless, default notification and logging templates are enhanced to take advantage of new macros and new concepts, so it is prudent to update templates if defaults are overridden, e.g. $log_templ, $notify_*_admin_templ, ... NEW FEATURES AT A GLANCE - new concept: blocking contents category; - true per-recipient defanging/sanitation of a mail body (previously a true per-recipient handling was available for mail header edits, but not for mail body modifications); - added interface code to invoke Anomy Sanitizer or the 'altermime' program allows defanging or adding disclaimers by external utilities on a per-recipient basis; - rewritten SMTP client code: get rid of the troublesome module Net::SMTP; new code now supports pipelining, client-side LMTP, IPv6, Unix sockets, more reliable error handling, passes on ORCPT parameter, passes on ENVID parameter unmangled, is bare-CR-clean, tidier code (no workarounds for rough corners in Net::SMTP), fewer context switches (handshake handovers) due to pipelining if pipelining is offered by MTA (which usually is); - makes available pedantically parsed addresses from a mail header: From, Sender, To, Cc. Addresses from mail header may be needed for deciding on inserting disclaimers, signing mail (DKIM), custom hooks (like 'vacation'-type applications), and other future applications. Get rid of inexact parsing by module Mail::Address, provide own parser; - phishing fraud as returned by ClamAV is now treated as spam, no longer as a virus; - compatible with SpamAssassin 3.2.0; - enhancements to amavisd-nanny: shows more detailed states of processes; - enhancements to amavisd-agent: shows average processing times per message; - extended AM.PDP protocol with an attribute 'policy_bank' which may be used in a client's request to require loading additional policy banks; - add support for 7-Zip archives if external utility 7z is available; - custom hooks allow custom code to be called at few strategic places; - penpals can now also match replies which reference previous outgoing mail by its MessageID (taking into account References or In-Reply-To header field); - new key 'originating' in policy banks generalizes a MYNETS policy bank; - a documentation rewrite for setting up amavisd-new with Postfix by Patrick Ben Koetter (one of the two authors of The Book of Postfix). Previous documentation has been renamed to README.postfix.old and will be removed in the next version; the new documentation is README.postfix.html, and its automatically converted plain text version is README.postfix. BUG FIXES - if a sender is both white- and black-listed at the same time, then inserted X-Spam-* header fields were inconsistent, e.g. X-Spam-Level, X-Spam-Flag and X-Spam-Status reflected a whitelisted status (no asterisks, not a spam), while X-Spam-Score showed 64 points; now whitelisting prevails in all X-Spam-* header fields; - relax argument parsing in amavisd-release to allow releasing of quarantine id containing a body hash in a name (%b in template); reported by Ron Rademaker; - skip a SQL-logging database operation if an associated clause in %sql_clause is disabled, e.g. set to undef or ''; this allows for example to selectively disable SQL logging based on a policy bank; thanks to Riaan Kok; - let LHA decoder (do_lha) recognize also other listing formats, e.g. MS-DOS, symlinks, not just plain Unix archives; problem reported by Ryuhei Funatsu; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Mar 8 14:58:24 CET 2007 - varkoly@suse.de - update to version 2.4.5 SECURITY - Recommended version of Convert::UUlib is 1.08 or higher to avoid processing of uninitialized data containing 'random' garbage. Note that a security hole in uulib which comes with Convert::UUlib 1.04 and older is now (as of 2006-12-05) known to be exploitable: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-1349 credits to Jean-Sébastien Guay-Leroux; - p0f-analyzer.pl will no longer reply to queries coming from low-numbered UDP ports below 1024 or from nfsd port 2049, and will ignore queries with nonce longer than 1024 character or containing characters outside of \040-\177 range to limit its usefulness as a potential reflector for an attacker from internal networks. INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE WITH 2.4.4 - p0f-analyzer.pl now only binds to a loopback interface by default, instead of to all interfaces; change $bind_addr in p0f-analyzer.pl to '0.0.0.0' if p0f-analyzer.pl is running on a different host from amavisd or from other querying clients; suggested by Shaun T. Erickson and Mario Liehr; BUG FIXES - let p0f-analyzer.pl exit when a pipe on stdin is closed (e.g. when p0f is killed or crashes), instead of entering a tight loop; reported by Justin Piszcz and Henrik Krohns; - hard-blacklisting no longer skips quarantining when $spam_quarantine_cutoff_level is undefined (or is an empty string); - restart timer after Sophie times out; previously the next attempt would run with no time limit; reported by Nick Leverton and Nicklas Bondesson; - fixed AM.PDP code to always provide smtp-quoted form in angle brackets in delrcpt and addrcpt attributes of a response, i.e. in the same form as was received in sender and recipient attributes; - fix error reporting in open_on_specific_fd when POSIX::dup2 fails; thanks to Chris (decoder); - fix signal handling in read_snmp_variables() and register_proc(), a signal could previously get lost (not re-signaled) if it occurred within these subroutines; - fixed get_body_digest which incorrectly determined 7- or 8-bitness of mail header and body, setting body_type incorrectly (with only cosmetic ill-effects); - AM.PDP protocol: ensure proper address form is used in server response attributes 'delrcpt' and 'addrcpt': the same form should be used as in 'sender' and 'recipient' attributes. The attribute value syntax is specified in RFC 2821 as 'Reverse-path' (i.e. smtp-quoted form, enclosed in <>); previously enclosing angle brackets were missing in a server reply; - documentation - amavisd.conf-default incorrectly stated that a default value for $prepend_header_fields_hdridx is 1; actually the default is 0 as correctly indicated in release notes; reported by Jo Rhett; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Nov 20 11:47:16 CET 2006 - varkoly@suse.de - fixing bug 218230 - amavisd crashes on start ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Oct 20 11:13:22 CEST 2006 - varkoly@suse.de - update to version 2.4.3 BUG FIXES AND WORKAROUNDS - fixed a bug (introduced with amavisd-new-2.4.0): when receiving mail from MTA through a LMTP protocol (not SMTP) and with D_BOUNCE as a final*destiny setting, a suppressed non-delivery notification (e.g. spam above cutoff_level) did not turn LMTP status into a success, so an undesired bounce was generated by MTA in a post-queue filtering setup, contributing to excessive bounce backscatter; reported by Michael Scheidell, thanks to Gary V for analysis; - bug fix to amavisd-release: a regexp needs to be relaxed to allow quarantine names like Y/spam-Y5y7A3J5r2Ax.gz, reported by Rob Chanter; - fix a bug in LDAP lookups which could lead to an infinite loop while expanding %m in the filter; reported by Petr Vokac; - add "LOCAL_STATE_DIR => '/var/lib'" to the SA object initialization for versions of SA 3.1.4 or older, so that SpamAssassin would see additional rules provided by sa-update and placed to its default location; the SA 3.1.5 provides its own default so this becomes unnecessary; - bug fix: don't reject mail when mail size restriction is in force, the limit is exceeded, and $final_destiny_by_ccat{+CC_OVERSIZED} is not D_REJECT; - treat blacklisting like high spam score when considering suppressing quarantining (@spam_quarantine_cutoff_level_maps) or suppressing sending a DSN (@spam_dsn_cutoff_level_maps); - calling do_quarantine() multiple times on the same message would accumulate header edits from each invocation, fixed; (such situation can only happen with a modified program); - when defanging mail or releasing mail from a quarantine, with a goal of not breaking DKIM Sender Signing Policy and DomainKeys policy, do not copy existing Sender header field to a new header, and insert our own Sender field (configurable by %hdrfrom_notify_recip_by_ccat); Note that dk-milter-0.4.1 (dk-filter) incorrectly signs mail released by amavisd from a quarantine - presence of X-Spam-* header fields preceded and followed by Received header fields makes dk-filter inappropriately reorder headers fields before signing. The dkim-milter works correctly. The bug has been reported, but has not yet been resolved at this time. - explicitly set PerlIO layer to ":bytes" on a temporary file handle for email.txt (just in case); based on a problem report by Alexander Schäfer; - in a string produced by a macro %c remove a decimal dot if score happens to be an integer; - reduce $sa_mail_body_size_limit from 512 kB to 400 kB in amavisd.conf and amavisd.conf-sample for the time being, while the SA folks work on http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5041 (MS Outlook Express seems to be chopping long mail in approx 500 kB chunks); - another workaround for Perl taint bug: IO::Handle::_open_mode_string taints the $1 when mode string to IO::File::open is '+<', use O_RDWR instead; thanks to Ryan Frantz; - abort if a specified syslog facility name is unknown, instead of switching to LOG_DAEMON as before; - change the code which selects defanging so that defanging is triggered if any applicable contents category of a message chooses defanging; counterintuitive behaviour reported by Tapani Tarvainen; - fix example in amavisd.conf-sample to use +CC_SPAM instead of CC_SPAM as a key to a hash, e.g. $final_destiny_by_ccat{+CC_SPAM}, otherwise Perl would implicitly turn CC_SPAM into a string when used in such a context. Note that any Perl expression syntax would do, as long as the argument does not look like a plain variable which receives implicit quoting; possibilities include $xx{&CC_SPAM}, $xx{+CC_SPAM}, $xx{CC_SPAM()}, $xx{(CC_SPAM)} and similar; a more obvious &CC_SPAM is avoided because it prevents subroutine call inlining optimization in Perl; - qmail: update amavisd-new-qmqpqq.patch to be compatible with Net::Server version 0.91 or later; thanks to mr from DBA Lab S.p.A.; - AM.PDP protocol: change the order of attributes returned in an reply: delete and edit header fields before adding new header fields; problem of deleting just-inserted header fields in a sendmail milter setup reported by Petr Rehor; - AM.PDP protocol change - with version 2 of the protocol the following changes to the protocol were made: * "version_server=2" is provided in a server response as the first attribute, older versions did not provide such attribute (assumed version on the server side was 1); * delheader and chgheader now stand in a response before insheader and addheader, assuming that milter MTA will execute these in the same order; * new attribute: "insheader=hdridx hdr_head hdr_body" (where hdridx as used by amavisd will always be 0 for now), making it possible to prepend header fields in a sendmail milter setup (instead of appending them, breaking compatibility with DomainKeys); problem noted by Adam Gibson and Petr Rehor; * new attribute: "quarantine=reason" place message on hold or to a quarantine maintained by MTA, and supply a reason text (e.g. client may call smfi_quarantine milter routine); For future use - it is currently (2.4.3 or earlier) never used. - new feature: "pen pals soft-whitelisting" lowers spam score of received replies to a message previously sent by a local user to this address; - new feature: added command line options to override certain configuration settings from a config file, see below; - documentation bug fixes, especially on the use of SQL data type TIMESTAMP; - zoo decoder interface routine can now use utility unzoo(1) or zoo(1); - LDAP.schema: add missing LDAP attribute amavisSpamQuarantineCutoffLevel to the list of allowed attributes in objectclass amavisAccount; pointed out by Paolo Cravero; - Delivery status notifications (DSN) are now supported, both as a SMTP protocol extension and in notifications. Header fields like X-Amavis and X-Spam are now prepended to mail header for DomainKeys compatibility. Configuration variables can be chosen based on mail contents category, which is now represented explicitly. A built-in macro expander is enhanced, providing new macros and call types. Added support for passive operating system fingerprinting with the use of p0f, supplying collected information as a header field to SpamAssassin. Provide compatibility with Net::Server 0.91 and later. - fix insufficient sender address sanitation when storing quarantined or forwarded files as BSMTP files _and_ having a %s in the corresponding *_method template; potential security vulnerability (with limited scope) in versions of amavisd-new 2.3.1, 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 discovered by Thomas Jarosch; - recognize result "ms-windows metafile" (or "ms-windows metafont") from a file(1) utility and provide short type 'wmf' for it; added two example rules to amavisd.conf (and amavisd.conf-sample) to block files containing Windows Metafiles, based on US-CERT Alert TA05-362A; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jan 25 21:34:13 CET 2006 - mls@suse.de - converted neededforbuild to BuildRequires ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Aug 29 12:01:07 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - change clamav default setting from unix socket to tcp to be compliant with the default settings of the clamav package ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Aug 26 15:09:48 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - amavisd does not behave LSB conform with it's return codes of start and stop, so work around it in start and stop section of init script - version 2.3.3 now requires uname(2) to return an FQHN, which isn't the case with SUSE Linux; work around it in %post ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Aug 22 10:07:30 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - update to version 2.3.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jul 4 17:11:42 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - use RPM_OPT_FLAGS ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jun 29 14:38:08 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - update to version 2.3.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue May 10 09:40:43 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - update to version 2.3.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Apr 25 09:35:49 CEST 2005 - choeger@suse.de - update to version 2.3.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Feb 3 10:02:55 CET 2005 - choeger@suse.de - s/X-UnitedLinux-Should-Start/Should-Start/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jan 24 12:35:58 CET 2005 - ro@suse.de - removed arc dependency (deleted package) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Jan 21 17:05:55 CET 2005 - choeger@suse.de - update to version 2.2.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Nov 24 10:27:23 CET 2004 - choeger@suse.de - update to version 2.2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Oct 5 09:47:15 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - bugfix: untainting filename in unlink() in function files_to_scan().

Likewise the first body line of this same DSN was eaten up: "This nondelivery report was generated by the amavisd-new program" (the problem was introduced in amavisd-new-20030616 and never reported); - in amavisd-agent, amavisd-nanny, amavisd: extend the signal and error handling in code sections holding bdb locks from just ignoring the SIGINT, to controlled catching and re-signaling several signals and error conditions; problem reported by Tom Mulder; - provide new macro %e which evaluates to our best guess of the originator IP address collected from the Received trace, complementing similar macros %t, %a and %g; suggested by Gregor Weiss; - add the result of macro %e to the default 0-level log entry; ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Aug 26 14:08:32 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - uncomment $unix_socketname in amavisd.conf to be able to pipe into /usr/sbin/amavis, which needs to connect to $unix_socketname ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Aug 26 11:06:43 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - Bugfix: amavisd 2.1.1 still announces itself as 2.1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Aug 25 16:58:10 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - update to latest version 2.1.1 - fixed specfile (now needs to additional directories %{avspool}/tmp and %{avspool}/db - fixed hardcoded berkeleydb home path to /var/spool/amavis/db in amavisd-agent and amavisd-nanny - added perl-BerkeleyDB to Requires ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Aug 17 17:39:39 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - update to latest version 2.1.0 (20040815) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jun 28 10:36:00 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - Bugfix ID#42381 - amavisd-new reload/restart kills service chown logfile to $daemon_user when using file logging instead of syslog - Bugfix ID#42223 - amavis-new spams mail.warn do not enable amavisd-new per default in sysconfig.amavis ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jun 7 15:12:33 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - added clamd to X-UnitedLinux-Should-Start in init-script (related to Bugzilla ID#41722) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Apr 23 13:54:27 CEST 2004 - choeger@suse.de - Bugfix Bugzilla ID#39293, amavisd-new + bind9 cache When using rbl checks etc. in amavisd-new (/etc/amavsid.conf: $sa_local_tests_only = 0; # (default: false)) amavis seems to check for a working DNS resolver.
