CVE-2005-0021
Multiple buffer overflows in Exim before 4.43 may allow attackers to
execute arbitrary code via (1) an IPv6 address with more than 8
components, as demonstrated using the -be command line option, which
triggers an overflow in the host_aton function, or (2) the -bh command
line option or dnsdb PTR lookup, which triggers an overflow in the
dns_build_reverse function.

CVE-2005-0022
Buffer overflow in the spa_base64_to_bits function in Exim before
4.43, as originally obtained from Samba code, and as called by the
auth_spa_client function, may allow attackers to execute arbitrary
code during SPA authentication.";
