    Suggestion from Qalys:


    If I may add one more thing, there is an issue that should be addressed
    sooner rather than later: the writable configuration at the beginning of
    the heap. A short-term (and hopefully non-intrusive) solution may be to
    mmap() the configuration instead, and then mprotect(PROT_READ) it. This
    would mitigate the exploitation technique that almost all Exim exploits
    have been using.
