Package              : spamassassin
Version              : 3.2.5-2+lenny1.1~volatile1 (Lenny)
Importance           : medium

It was discovered that SpamAssassin contains a rule that falsely penalizes
mails that have a date of 2010 and onwards.  This update adjusts the rule
to match on mails of 2020 and onwards instead.

If you use spamassassin, we recommend you upgrade to this version.  An
update will also be included in the next Lenny point release.

This update only includes spamassassin, not the compiled spamc client.

information for Argentina, due to the sudden decision on suspending

available in lenny/volatile as version 2009l-0lenny1.1, these patches

Version              : 0.95.1+dfsg-0volatile2 (Etch),
                       0.95.1+dfsg-1volatile2 (Lenny)
Importance           : medium
CVE IDs              : CVE-2008-6680, CVE-2009-1270

Upstream published version 0.95.1.

Though the changes are not strictly required for operation, users of the
previous version in volatile might get warnings.

The new version contains these enhancements:

    - Google Safe Browsing support: in addition to the heuristic and signature
      based phishing detection mechanisms already available in ClamAV, the
      scanner can now make use of the Google's blacklists of suspected
      phishing and malware sites. The ClamAV Project distributes a constantly
      updated Safe Browsing database, which can be automatically fetched by
      freshclam. For more information, please see freshclam.conf(5) and
      http://safebrowsing.clamav.net.

    - New clamav-milter: The program has been redesigned and rewritten from
      scratch. The most notable difference is that the internal mode has been
      dropped which means that now a working clamd companion is required.

[VUA 2-2] Discontinuation of clamav-data

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Volatile Update Announcement VUA 2-2      http://volatile.debian.org

Package              : clamav-data

Since July 2005 volatile contained current ClamAV Virus Databases through
the clamav-data package.  Those were autobuilt and uploaded several times
a day and intended for computers which cannot access the internet through
HTTP but only a local package mirror.

This service will be discontinued in about a month when volatile moves
to Debian's FTP master server and the official mirror network.  Users of
the package are advised to set up a local HTTP mirror which can then be
used with freshclam.

A suggestion about how to set up such a mirror can be found in the ClamAV
developers' Frequently Asked Questions:

  http://www.clamav.net/support/faq/

Furthermore kudos go to Marc 'Zugschlus' Haber who maintained this service
for almost four years.
