[HTCondor-users] SECURITY: Addressing a problem in mailx

[Zachary Miller <zmiller@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

You may have heard about a vulnerability in mailx.  This has the potential to
affect HTCondor because the default mail agent used by HTCondor on many systems
is mailx.

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1169800

We suggest you update mailx to the latest version.  Alternatively, you can
upgrade HTCondor to 8.2.6 (or 8.3.2) and configure HTCondor to use sendmail
instead:
