bash ( USER ) -> ENV LIBPATH=mydirectoryilike exim <options to load
your config> -> now your ROOT because exim is -> calls perlwrapper ->
perl load your lib from your directory -> your code in the lib gets
executed as root.
The question is, who stops the attacker from loading a config he likes
directly into exim WITH the new vars set ?
