Description |
Sendmail contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to gain elevated privileges. The issue is due to the sm_syslog() function which allows an attacker to pass crafted data to the setjmp(3) and longjmp(3) function causing memory corruption. This can be used to remotely execute arbitrary code without authentication.
