** Exim 4.92.3 released (security release) ** CVE ID: CVE-2019-16928
Date: 2019-09-27 (CVE assigned) Version(s): from 4.92 up to and
including 4.92.2 Reporter: QAX-A-TEAM Reference:
bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2449 Issue: Heap-based buffer overflow in
string_vformat, remote code execution seems to be possible Conditions
to be vulnerable =========================== All versions from (and
including) 4.92 up to (and including) 4.92.2 are vulnerable. Details
======= There is a heap-based buffer overflow in string_vformat
(string.c). The currently known exploit uses a extraordinary long EHLO
string to crash the Exim process that is receiving the message. While
at this mode of operation Exim already dropped its privileges, other
paths to reach the vulnerable code may exist. Mitigation ==========
There is - beside updating the server - no known mitigation. Fix ===
