s700_800 11.04 (VVOS) sendmail(1m) 8.9.3 patch : 

A potential security vulnerability has been identified with HP-UX running sendmail, where the vulnerability could be exploited remotely to gain unauthorized privileged access. References: CERT/CC CA-2003-25, CAN-2003-0681.

A buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in the address parsing code in all versions of sendmail prior to 8.12.10 by Michal Zalewski, with a patch to fix the problem provided by Todd C. Miller. This vulnerability seems to be remotely exploitable on Linux systems running on the x86 platform; the sendmail team is unsure of other platforms (CVE-2003-0694).

Another potential buffer overflow was fixed in ruleset parsing which is not exploitable in the default sendmail configuration. A problem may occur if non-standard rulesets recipient (2), final (4), or mailer- specific envelope recipients rulesets are use. This problem was discovered by Timo Sirainen (CVE-2003-0681).

MandrakeSoft encourages all users who use sendmail to upgrade to the provided packages which are patched to fix both problems.

According to its version number, the remote Sendmail server is between 5.79 to 8.12.9.  Such versions are reportedly vulnerable to remote buffer overflow attacks, one in the 'prescan()' function and another involving its ruleset processing.  A remote user may be able to leverage these issues to gain root privileges.

Two vulnerabilities were reported in sendmail.

  - CAN-2003-0681 :
    A 'potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing' for     Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1)     recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope     recipients, has unknown consequences.

  - CAN-2003-0694 :

    The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote     attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow     attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in     parseaddr.c.

The remote Sendmail server may be vulnerable to a remote buffer overflow that can be exploited by an attacker to gain a root shell on this host.
