spamdyke version 3.1.8 is now available:
http://www.spamdyke.org/
This version fixes a bug with the recipient filters that could allow a clever
sender to use a spamdyke-protected server as an open relay. The sequence of
commands are not legal SMTP, so the sender would have to know the server was
running a vulnerable version of spamdyke to exploit this bug. Thanks to Mirko
Buffoni for reporting this one.
This version also fixes two problems with the idle timeout filter. The first
could cause the connection to be rejected because qmail is slow to respond
(which isn't fair). The second was a tricky issue where large messages from
fast remote servers could be improperly rejected because the idle timer wasn't
being reset. Thanks to Eric Shubert for reporting and helping me fix this one.
This version also fixes two compiling problems. The first was a problem in the
"configure" script on older Gentoo installations running gcc 3.4.6 that was
treating a preprocessor warning as an error. Thanks to Thorsten Puzich for
reporting and helping me fix this one. The second was a problem with CentOS
3.8, which doesn't install the OpenSSL headers in the system include folder.
Thanks to Bruce Schreiber for reporting this one.
Version 3.1.8 is backwards-compatible with version 3.1.7; simply
replacing the old binary with the new one should be safe.
