Vulnerability Details
Hi, I found an off-by-one in Exim MTA utility function. It was reported to exim and official patch has been released, assigned CVE-2018-6789. This bug affects all versions of exim. This bug is simple, but can be leverage to gain remote code execution, using skillful heap exploitation. Details are here: https://devco.re/blog/2018/03/06/exim-off-by-one-RCE-exploiting-CVE-2018-6789-en/ I believe exim is widespread enough and it seems to fit all criteria. I wonder if this finding worths a bounty, or the reason why it is not included. Thanks! ## Impact Pre-auth remote code execution on all versions of exim mail server
