exim is vulnerable to Stack-based Overflow. The vulnerability arises from the absence of proper validation of user-supplied data length before copying it into a fixed-length stack-based buffer during the handling of NTLM challenge requests in the SMTP challenge component. This allows an attacker to cause an application crash through malicious code injection.
