"The remote Sendmail server, according to its version number,
may be vulnerable to a remote buffer overflow allowing remote
users to gain root privileges.

Sendmail versions from 5.79 to 8.12.8 are vulnerable.

NOTE: manual patches do not change the version numbers.
Vendors who have released patched versions of Sendmail may still
falsely show a vulnerability.

*** Nessus reports this vulnerability using only the banner of the
*** remote SMTP server. Therefore, this might be a false positive.");
