Here are the details from the Slackware 10.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/sendmail-8.13.6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to sendmail-8.13.6.
 This new version of sendmail contains a fix for a security problem
 discovered by Mark Dowd of ISS X-Force. From sendmail's advisory:
 Sendmail was notified by security researchers at ISS that, under some
 specific timing conditions, this vulnerability may permit a specifically
 crafted attack to take over the sendmail MTA process, allowing remote
 attackers to execute commands and run arbitrary programs on the system
 running the MTA, affecting email delivery, or tampering with other
 programs and data on this system. Sendmail is not aware of any public
 exploit code for this vulnerability. This connection-oriented
 vulnerability does not occur in the normal course of sending and
 receiving email. It is only triggered when specific conditions are
 created through SMTP connection layer commands.
