7.5CVE-2003-0681applemac_os_x+14
EPSS score
22.36%
A "potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing" for Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1) recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope recipients, has unknown consequences.
10CVE-2003-0694applemac_os_x+18
EPSS score
66.18%
The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.
5CVE-2003-0688compaqtru64+6
EPSS score
3.56%
The DNS map code in Sendmail 8.12.8 and earlier, when using the "enhdnsbl" feature, does not properly initialize certain data structures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash) via an invalid DNS response that causes Sendmail to free incorrect data.
10CVE-2003-0161compaqtru64+9
EPSS score
38.79%
The prescan() function in the address parser (parseaddr.c) in Sendmail before 8.12.9 does not properly handle certain conversions from char and int types, which can cause a length check to be disabled when Sendmail misinterprets an input value as a special "NOCHAR" control value, allowing attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack using messages, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-1337.
7.2CVE-2003-0308debiansendmail+2
EPSS score
0.40%
The Sendmail 8.12.3 package in Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 does not securely create temporary files, which could allow local users to gain additional privileges via (1) expn, (2) checksendmail, or (3) doublebounce.pl.
7.4CVE-2021-3618alpinenginx+60
EPSS score
2.03%
ALPACA is an application layer protocol content confusion attack, exploiting TLS servers implementing different protocols but using compatible certificates, such as multi-domain or wildcard certificates. A MiTM attacker having access to victim's traffic at the TCP/IP layer can redirect traffic from one subdomain to another, resulting in a valid TLS session. This breaks the authentication of TLS and cross-protocol attacks may be possible where the behavior of one protocol service may compromise the other at the application layer.
7.8CVE-2007-2246sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
2.32%
Unspecified vulnerability in HP-UX B.11.00 and B.11.11, when running sendmail 8.9.3 or 8.11.1; and HP-UX B.11.23 when running sendmail 8.11.1; allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unknown attack vectors. NOTE: due to the lack of details from HP, it is not known whether this issue is a duplicate of another CVE such as CVE-2006-1173 or CVE-2006-4434.
1.9CVE-2014-3956debiansendmail+7
EPSS score
0.64%
The sm_close_on_exec function in conf.c in sendmail before 8.14.9 has arguments in the wrong order, and consequently skips setting expected FD_CLOEXEC flags, which allows local users to access unintended high-numbered file descriptors via a custom mail-delivery program.
3.7CVE-2001-1349sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
0.42%
Sendmail before 8.11.4, and 8.12.0 before 8.12.0.Beta10, allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly corrupt the heap and gain privileges via race conditions in signal handlers.
4.6CVE-2001-0713sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
0.33%
Sendmail before 8.12.1 does not properly drop privileges when the -C option is used to load custom configuration files, which allows local users to gain privileges via malformed arguments in the configuration file whose names contain characters with the high bit set, such as (1) macro names that are one character long, (2) a variable setting which is processed by the setoption function, or (3) a Modifiers setting which is processed by the getmodifiers function.
2.1CVE-2001-0714sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
0.29%
Sendmail before 8.12.1, without the RestrictQueueRun option enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (data loss) by (1) setting a high initial message hop count option (-h), which causes Sendmail to drop queue entries, (2) via the -qR option, or (3) via the -qS option.
2.1CVE-2001-0715sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
0.41%
Sendmail before 8.12.1, without the RestrictQueueRun option enabled, allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information about the mail queue by setting debugging flags to enable debug mode.
4.6CVE-2001-0653sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
1.18%
Sendmail 8.10.0 through 8.11.5, and 8.12.0 beta, allows local users to modify process memory and possibly gain privileges via a large value in the 'category' part of debugger (-d) command line arguments, which is interpreted as a negative number.
5CVE-2005-2070debianclamav+1
EPSS score
1.66%
The ClamAV Mail fILTER (clamav-milter) 0.84 through 0.85d, when used in Sendmail using long timeouts, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by keeping an open connection, which prevents ClamAV from reloading.
5CVE-1999-1109sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
7.17%
Sendmail before 8.10.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a series of ETRN commands then disconnecting from the server, while Sendmail continues to process the commands after the connection has been terminated.
7.5CVE-1999-1592sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
0.99%
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in sendmail 5, as installed on Sun SunOS 4.1.3_U1 and 4.1.4, have unspecified attack vectors and impact. NOTE: this might overlap CVE-1999-0129.
7.2CVE-1999-1309sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
0.44%
Sendmail before 8.6.7 allows local users to gain root access via a large value in the debug (-d) command line option.
7.2CVE-1999-1580sendmailsendmail+1
EPSS score
1.10%
SunOS sendmail 5.59 through 5.65 uses popen to process a forwarding host argument, which allows local users to gain root privileges by modifying the IFS (Internal Field Separator) variable and passing crafted values to the -oR option.
5CVE-1999-0478sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
1.36%
Denial of service in HP-UX sendmail 8.8.6 related to accepting connections.
6.4CVE-2002-2423sendmailsendmail
EPSS score
1.17%
Sendmail 8.12.0 through 8.12.6 truncates log messages longer than 100 characters, which allows remote attackers to prevent the IP address from being logged via a long IDENT response.
