script_tag(name:"insight", value:"This update for exim fixes the following issues:
exim was updated to 4.97.1 (boo#1218387, CVE-2023-51766):
* Fixes for the smtp protocol smuggling (CVE-2023-51766)
exim was updated to exim 4.96:
* Move from using the pcre library to pcre2.
* Constification work in the filters module required a major version
bump for the local-scan API. Specifically, the 'headers_charset'
global which is visible via the API is now const and may therefore
not be modified by local-scan code.
* Bug 2819: speed up command-line messages being read in. Previously a
time check was being done for every character, replace that with one
per buffer.
* Bug 2815: Fix ALPN sent by server under OpenSSL. Previously the string
sent was prefixed with a length byte.
* Change the SMTP feature name for pipelining connect to be compliant with
RFC 5321. Previously Dovecot (at least) would log errors during
submission.
* Fix macro-definition during '-be' expansion testing. The move to
write-protected store for macros had not accounted for these runtime
additions, fix by removing this protection for '-be' mode.
* Convert all uses of select() to poll().
* Fix use of $sender_host_name in daemon process. When used in certain
main-section options or in a connect ACL, the value from the first ever
connection was never replaced for subsequent connections.
* Bug 2838: Fix for i32lp64 hard-align platforms
* Bug 2845: Fix handling of tls_require_ciphers for OpenSSL when a value
with underbars is given.
* Bug 1895: TLS: Deprecate RFC 5114 Diffie-Hellman parameters.
* Debugging initiated by an ACL control now continues through into routing
and transport processes.
* The 'expand' debug selector now gives more detail, specifically on the
result of expansion operators and items.
* Bug 2751: Fix include_directory in redirect routers. Previously a
bad comparison between the option value and the name of the file to
be included was done, and a mismatch was wrongly identified.
* Support for Berkeley DB versions 1 and 2 is withdrawn.
* When built with NDBM for hints DB's check for nonexistence of a name
supplied as the db file-pair basename.
* Remove the 'allow_insecure_tainted_data' main config option and the
'taint' log_selector.
* Fix static address-list lookups to properly return the matched item.
Previously only the domain part was returned.
* The ${run} expansion item now expands its command string elements after
splitting. Previously it was before, the new ordering makes handling
zero-length arguments simpler.
* Taint-check exec arguments for transport-initiated external processes.
Previously, tainted values could be used. This affects 'pipe', 'lmtp' and
'queryprogram' transport, transport-filter, and ETRN commands.
The ${run} expansion is also affected: in 'preexpand' mode no part of
the command line may be tainted, in default mode the executable name
may not be tainted.
* ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]");
