An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-17554.

Exim Regex use after free

A vulnerability was found in Exim and classified as problematic. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component Regex Handler. The manipulation leads to use after free. The name of the patch is 4e9ed49f8f12eb331b29bd5b6dc3693c520fddc2. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The identifier VDB-211073 was assigned to this vulnerability.

The STARTTLS feature in Exim through 4.94.2 allows response injection (buffering) during MTA SMTP sending.

A use-after-free in Exim 4.96 through 4.98.1 could allow users (with command-line access) to escalate privileges.

Exim libspf2 Integer Underflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Exim libspf2 Integer Underflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Exim libspf2. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of SPF macros. When parsing SPF macros, the process does not properly validate user-supplied data, which can result in an integer underflow before writing to memory. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the service account. . Was ZDI-CAN-17578.

Exim AUTH Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Exim AUTH Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Exim. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the smtp service, which listens on TCP port 25 by default. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of a buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the service account. . Was ZDI-CAN-17434.

exim: exim: Incorrect parsing of multiline rfc2231 header filename

Exim through 4.97.1 misparses a multiline RFC 2231 header filename, and thus remote attackers can bypass a $mime_filename extension-blocking protection mechanism, and potentially deliver executable attachments to the mailboxes of end users.

Exim DMARC dmarc.c dmarc_dns_lookup use after free

A vulnerability was found in Exim and classified as problematic. This issue affects the function dmarc_dns_lookup of the file dmarc.c of the component DMARC Handler. The manipulation leads to use after free. The attack may be initiated remotely. The name of the patch is 12fb3842f81bcbd4a4519d5728f2d7e0e3ca1445. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-211919.

exim: Possible information disclosure to remote atacker

Exim before 4.87.1 might allow remote attackers to obtain the private DKIM signing key via vectors related to log files and bounce messages.

Exim: Privilege escalation via multiple memory leaks

Exim supports the use of multiple "-p" command line arguments which are malloc()'ed and never free()'ed, used in conjunction with other issues allows attackers to cause arbitrary code execution. This affects exim version 4.89 and earlier. Please note that at this time upstream has released a patch (commit 65e061b76867a9ea7aeeb535341b790b90ae6c21), but it is not known if a new point release is available that addresses this issue at this time.

exim: use-after-free in receive_msg function via vectors involving BDAT commands

The receive_msg function in receive.c in the SMTP daemon in Exim 4.88 and 4.89 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving BDAT commands.

exim: infinite loop and stack exhaustion in receive_msg function via vectors involving BDAT commands

The receive_msg function in receive.c in the SMTP daemon in Exim 4.88 and 4.89 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and stack exhaustion) via vectors involving BDAT commands and an improper check for a '.' character signifying the end of the content, related to the bdat_getc function.

exim: local root privilege escalation for configurations with perl_startup

Exim before 4.86.2, when installed setuid root, allows local users to gain privileges via the perl_startup argument.

exim: remote arbitrary code execution via DMARC code parsing

The dmarc_process function in dmarc.c in Exim before 4.82.1, when EXPERIMENTAL_DMARC is enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the From header in an email, which is passed to the expand_string function.

exim: local code execution via string expansion

expand.c in Exim before 4.83 expands mathematical comparisons twice, which allows local users to gain privileges and execute arbitrary commands via a crafted lookup value.

exim: hard-link following vulnerability in mailbox handling

transports/appendfile.c in Exim before 4.72, when a world-writable sticky-bit mail directory is used, does not verify the st_nlink field of mailbox files, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly gain privileges by creating a hard link to another user's file.
