Description Mark J. Cox 2007-02-13 21:31:16 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #228586 +++

There is a DoS in apparantly all versions of spamassassin prior to
3.1.8 (which is not released yet).  A carefully crafted message can 
cause SpamAssassin to consume significant resources which could lead
to a DoS if an attacker sends many such messages:
