Buffer overflow in Unix mailer Exim imperils 400,000 email servers

The Register • John Leyden • 07 Mar 2018

Bug already plugged, get updating

Researchers have uncovered a critical buffer overflow vulnerability in all versions of the Exim mail transfer agent. The flaw (CVE-2018-6789) leaves an estimated 400,000 email servers at potential risk to remote code execution-style attacks. Fortunately a patched version (Exim version 4.90.1) is already available. The bug might be exploited by unauthenticated users rather than hackers who have already broken into targeted systems or scored login credentials through some other (doubtless nefariou...
