Subject: SECURITY: new procmail packages available

Potential security problems have been identified in all the procmail
packages shipped with Red Hat Linux. Currently Red Hat is not aware of any
explots built on these vulnerabilities.

Red Hat would like to thank the members of the Bugtraq list for reporting
these problems and the authors of procmail for quickly providing an update.

Users of Red Hat Linux are recommended to upgrade to the new packages
available under updates directory on our ftp site:
