Ubuntu Update for exim4 USN-1130-1. It was discovered that the Exim daemon did not correctly handle format strings in DKIM headers. An unauthenticated remote attacker could send specially crafted email to run arbitrary code as the Exim user. The default compiler options for affected releases reduces the vulnerability to a denial of service under most conditions
