Security-Fix Sendmail 8.12.9 Released

Posted by timothy on from the preemptive dept.

bahamutirc writes "Yet another security problem was discovered by Michal Zalewski in Sendmail 8.12.8, 'a buffer overflow in address parsing due to a char to int conversion problem which is potentially remotely exploitable.' Apparently somebody jumped the gun and posted before Sendmail had a chance to notify anyone, so they had to release it today. Go grab your source." Here's the CERT advisory.
