Security update for claws-mail


Type: security
Severity: moderate
Issued: 2020-11-03
Description:
This update for claws-mail fixes the following issues:

- Additional cleanup of the template handling

claws-mail was updated to 3.17.8 (boo#1177967)

  * Shielded template's |program{} and |attach_program{} so that the
    command-line that is executed does not allow sequencing such as
    with && || ;, preventing possible execution of nasty, or at least
    unexpected, commands
  * bug fixes: claws#4376
  * updated English, French, and Spanish manuals

- Update to 3.17.7 

  * Image Viewer: Image attachments, when displayed, are now resized
    to fit the available width rather than the available height.
  * -d is now an alias to --debug.
  * Libravatar plugin: New styles supported: Robohash and Pagan.
  * SpamAssassin plugin: The 'Maximum size' option now matches
    SpamAssassin's maximum; it can now handle messages up to 256MB.
  * LiteHTML viewer plugin: The UI is now translatable.
  Bug fixes:
  * bug 4313, 'Recursion stack overflow with rebuilding folder
    tree'
  * bug 4372, '[pl_PL] Crash after "Send later" without
    recipient and then "Close"'
  * bug 4373, 'attach mailto URI double free'
  * bug 4374, 'insert mailto URI misses checks'
  * bug 4384, 'U+00AD (soft hyphen) changed to space in
    Subject'
  * bug 4386, 'Allow Sieve config without userid without
    warning'
  * Add missing SSL settings when cloning accounts.
  * Parsing of command-line arguments.
  * PGP Core plugin: fix segv in address completion with a
    keyring.
  * Libravatar plugin: fixes to image display.

- Disable python-gtk plugin on suse_version > 1500: still relying
  on python2, which is EOL.

- Update to 3.17.6:

  * It is now possible to 'Inherit Folder properties and processing
    rules from parent folder' when creating new folders with the
    move message and copy message dialogues.
  * A Phishing warning is now shown when copying a phishing URL, (in
    addition to clicking a phishing URL).
  * The progress window when importing an mbox file is now more
    responsive.
  * A warning dialogue is shown if the selected privacy system is
    'None' and automatic signing amd/or encrypting is enabled.
  * Python plugin: pkgconfig is now used to check for python2. This
    enables the Python plugin (which uses python2) to be built on
    newer systems which have both python2 and python3.
  Bug fixes:
  * bug 3922, 'minimize to tray on startup not working'
  * bug 4220, 'generates files in cache without content'
  * bug 4325, 'Following redirects when retrieving image'
  * bug 4342, 'Import mbox file command doesn't work twice on a row'

  * fix fat-fingered crash when v (hiding msgview) is pressed
    just before c (check signature)
  * fix non-translation of some Templates strings
