Package: bsd-mailx
Version: 8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1+deb7u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Having just updated to DSA-3104-1, it seems that command execution
can still be obtained with the -I option and ~! expansion e.g.

  perl -e 'print "hello\n~!ls>file\nbye\n"' | mailx recip1 -I recip2

and I wonder whether this is something to worry about. I apologize
if my worries are unwarranted and I made useless noise.

Thanks, Paul
