Debian Security Advisory DSA 3888-1 (exim4 - security update). The Qualys Research Labs discovered a memory leak in the Exim mail transport agent, which can be used to exploit a vulnerability in stack handling. For the oldstable distribution (jessie), the problem has been fixed in version 4.84.2-2+deb8u4. For the stable distribution (stretch), the problem has been fixed in version 4.89-2+deb9u1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem will be fixed soon
