-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2014-8803 2014-07-25 08:57:53 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : exim Product : Fedora 19 Version : 4.80.1 Release : 4.fc19 URL : http://www.exim.org/ Summary : The exim mail transfer agent Description : Exim is a message transfer agent (MTA) developed at the University of Cambridge for use on Unix systems connected to the Internet. It is freely available under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence. In style it is similar to Smail 3, but its facilities are more general. There is a great deal of flexibility in the way mail can be routed, and there are extensive facilities for checking incoming mail. Exim can be installed in place of sendmail, although the configuration of exim is quite different to that of sendmail. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Security fix for CVE-2014-2972 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jul 23 2014 Jaroslav Škarvada <jskarvad@redhat.com> - 4.80.1-4 - Only expand integers for integer math once Resolves: CVE-2014-2972 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1122552 - CVE-2014-2972 exim: local code execution via string expansion https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1122552 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
