[Spamassassin Wiki] Update of "Security" by MattKettler

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Spamassassin Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by MattKettler:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/Security

The comment on the change is:
Added note about distributions backporting fixes

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  This page exists to provide  quick reference to all past security notices that affect SpamAssassin. At this time this page is a work-in-progress, but it is believed to be complete.
  
  Please note that while this reference does cover security notices for versions of SpamAssassin prior to version 3.0.0, it should be noted these are pre-Apache releases. They are included here for completeness. Also note this document does not attempt to cover versions older than 2.40.
+ 
+ Please also note that these notices apply to the official releases of SpamAssassin. Some third party distribution packages, such as Debian, choose to backport fixes. If you are using a distribution package with a version that appears vulnerable, check with the security advisories for that distribution to see if the fix has been backported.
