Yes, the use-after-free(UAF) vulnerability leads to Remote code execution(RCE).
The original Proof-of-Concept has already proved that hackers can gain code
execution in exim server through this vulnerability. In the PoC, the memory
area of current_block is freed so the content is modified by malloc.c. The
struct member `next` is changed to somewhere should not be written and leads to
RCE. We will publish a security advisory with more technical details after the
disclosure process is completed.
Besides, I've tested the patch and the bug is fixed.
