Two vulnerabilities were discovered in spamassassin, a Perl-based spam
filter using text analysis.

CVE-2018-11805

    Malicious rule or configuration files, possibly downloaded from an
    updates server, could execute arbitrary commands under multiple
    scenarios.

CVE-2019-12420

    Specially crafted mulitpart messages can cause spamassassin to use
    excessive resources, resulting in a denial of service.

For the oldstable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed
in version 3.4.2-1~deb9u2.

For the stable distribution (buster), these problems have been fixed in
