CVE-2025-30232

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Exim. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of the dp command line parameter. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of root.

It was discovered that Exim incorrectly handled certain memory operations. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Exim to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
