Package: spampd
Version: 2.30-16
Severity: normal
I installed spampd the other day just to see that it tried to access
some files in my user directory. After spending some time looking for
the reason and then askinf formorer for a hint we found that the server
process still had my user environment set despite running as user
spampd. It used my environment because I started it using sudo.
Further tests revealed that it works on root's environment if started by
root.
This causes some functionality to fail, e.g. pyzor and razor. Also it
loses uncritical data with Bayes and auto-whitelisting failing too.
Finally the seemingly simple solution of fixing the permissions of
root's .spamassassin directory creates some serious security concerns.
Some similar bug was reported a longer time ago and to fix it a config
opention was included. However, this option is disabled by default,
which doesn't really help.
IMO the bug should be fixed and not worked around anyway.
Formorer already developed a patch that I'm testing since last night. It
seems to me that it fixes the problem completely. So expect a patch
submitted here pretty soon.
