Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in OpenDMARC.

Software Description:

Details:

Jianjun Chen, Vern Paxson and Jian Jiang discovered that OpenDMARC
incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system were
tricked into receiving crafted inputs, an attacker could possibly use this
to falsify the domain of an e-mails origin. (CVE-2020-12272)

Patrik Lantz discovered that OpenDMARC incorrectly handled certain inputs.
If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially
crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2020-12460)
