URGENT: Major newe sendmail bug effects all commercial and …

Yep, sendmail once again strikes, granted it has been a while but they
can't get away from it.

For those of you who insist on running sendmail and are running any of
the below:

Affected versions of Sendmail products:

    -- All commercial releases including Sendmail Switch, Sendmail
Advanced Message Server (which includes the Sendmail Switch MTA),
Sendmail for NT and Sendmail Pro

    -- Sendmail open source versions 5.79 up to the most recent version,
8.12.7

    -- Other vendor versions based on Sendmail open source

Quickly see:

If you are running Red Hat the fix is available see:

Personally I strongly recommend moving away from Sendmail ASAP, postfix
and qmail are far more secure.

Cheers,
