Re: Don't want to replace IDA sendmail

I believe this advisory refers to newlines in the From part of a message.
By specifying sendmail -F, a user can supply a string as the From name for
a message.


This problem was reported along with 8.6.9's ident bug. The latest advisory
does not V8 at all and mentions a problem which can be exploited from remote
(so it's defenetly not the newline problem). 

Can somebody shed some light on this problem?
