(1) Why is this a remote exploit? For my understanding you're running
your exploit directly on the target machine, don't you?
(2) What is the difference to "sudo -u www touch /tmp/test"?
If your sudo configuration doesn't allow you to run "touch", but allows
you to run "sendmail" with arbitrary options, then I'd see this as
a problem of your sudo configuration, not a problem of Exim. But I
may miss the pointâ¦
