Hello,

the log-files on a try to exploit CVE-2019-10149 will look exactly the same
for a vulnerable and for a fixed exim.

CVE-2019-10149 is not that it is possible to submit a mail that ends
up frozen in the queue. CVE is a remote command execution
vulnerabilty. The fix for CVE-2019-10149 does not remove the
possibility to generate frozen mails in the queue, it stops the remote
command execution.

The included patch is this one:
https://sources.debian.org/src/exim4/4.89-2+deb9u4/debian/patches/83_qsa-2019-exim4.patch/

And if you go and try the local exploit described in detail on
https://packetstormsecurity.com/files/153218/Exim-4.9.1-Remote-Command-Execution.html
you'll see that with exim4-daemon-light 4.89-2+deb9u3 you'll end up
with the code execution (/tmp/id is generated), while with
exim4-daemon-light 4.89-2+deb9u4 /tmp/id is NOT generated.
