CVE-2020-8793

OpenSMTPD before 6.6.4 allows local users to read arbitrary files (e.g., on some Linux distributions) because of a combination of an untrusted search path in makemap.c and race conditions in the offline functionality in smtpd.c.

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.90%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
