Package: exim4 Version: 4.89-2+deb9u4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
This is just a FYI and I sure hope its nothing. In light of CVE-2019-10149 What I did was build a vagrant instance with Exim 4.89-2+deb9u3 to replicate the POC. Please see https://pastebin.com/raw/EiLbpsH4 for successful exploitation. What was of interest to me, I upgraded to 4.89-2+deb9u4 and redid the POC. Please see https://pastebin.com/raw/iqaJyHt2, but you will see is, the file POC does not work, BUT mail still gets accepted. Please see https://pastebin.com/raw/YLS7CBHY I just want to double check is this is correct / acceptable. Kind Regards Brent Clark P.s. Just a Q of food for thought, should not CHECK_RCPT_LOCAL_LOCALPARTS and / or CHECK_RCPT_REMOTE_LOCALPARTS be updated in /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/01_exim4-config_listmacrosdefs? -- Package-specific info: Exim version 4.89 #2 built 28-May-2019 20:13:55 Copyright (c) University of Cambridge, 1995 - 2017 (c) The Exim Maintainers and contributors in ACKNOWLEDGMENTS file, 2007 - 2017 Berkeley DB: Berkeley DB 5.3.28: (September 9, 2013) Support for: crypteq iconv() IPv6 GnuTLS move_frozen_messages DKIM DNSSEC Event OCSP PRDR SOCKS TCP_Fast_Open Lookups (built-in): lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch iplsearch cdb dbm dbmjz dbmnz dnsdb dsearch nis nis0 passwd Authenticators: cram_md5 plaintext Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral manualroute queryprogram redirect Transports: appendfile/maildir/mailstore autoreply lmtp pipe smtp Fixed never_users: 0 Configure owner: 0:0 Size of off_t: 8 Configuration file is /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated # /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf # # Edit this file and /etc/mailname by hand and execute update-exim4.conf # yourself or use 'dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config' # # Please note that this is _not_ a dpkg-conffile and that automatic changes # to this file might happen.
