Descriptions
Exim 4 before 4.94.2 allows Execution with Unnecessary Privileges. Because Exim operates as root in the spool directory (owned by a non-root user), an attacker can write to a /var/spool/exim4/input spool header file, in which a crafted recipient address can indirectly lead to command execution.
Exim 4 versiones anteriores a 4.94.2, permite una ejecución con Privilegios Innecesarios. Debido a que Exim opera como root en el directorio spool (propiedad para un usuario no root), un atacante puede escribir en un archivo de encabezado spool /var/spool/exim4/input, en el que una dirección de destinatario diseñada puede conllevar indirectamente a una ejecución de comando
