Details

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.
