Fedora 36: FEDORA-2021-bb9738d885 High: Libfoo Memory Leak

fedora
Calendar Grey September 25, 2021
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The latest security bulletin for Libspf2 brings essential enhancements to Fedora 35, aimed at addressing email spoofing threats. Ensure your protection!
Update to latest in git.

Summary

libspf2 is an implementation of the SPF (Sender Policy Framework)

specification as found at:

https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-mengwong-spf-00.txt

SPF allows email systems to check SPF DNS records and make sure that

an email is authorized by the administrator of the domain name that

it is coming from. This prevents email forgery, commonly used by

spammers, scammers, and email viruses/worms.

A lot of effort has been put into making it secure by design, and a

great deal of effort has been put into the regression tests.

Update to latest in git.
