Fedora 30 - FEDORA-2019-6dcb6b21de Critical: pspp Denial of Service

PSPP is a program for statistical analysis of sampled data. It

interprets commands in the SPSS language and produces tabular

output in ASCII, PostScript, or HTML format.

PSPP development is ongoing. It already supports a large subset

of SPSS's transformation language. Its statistical procedure

support is currently limited, but growing.
