Description |
Sendmail contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute commands without authentication. The issue is triggered when an attacker connects to the SMTP service (port 25), and issues the 'debug' command. If enable, this may allow an attacker to pipe arbitrary commands that will be executed under the same privileges as sendmail.
