    Package : exim4
    CVE ID : CVE-2017-16943 CVE-2017-16944
    Debian Bug : 882648 882671

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in Exim, a mail transport
    agent. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following issues:

    CVE-2017-16943

    A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in Exim's routines
    responsible for parsing mail headers. A remote attacker can take
    advantage of this flaw to cause Exim to crash, resulting in a denial
    of service, or potentially for remote code execution.

    CVE-2017-16944

    It was discovered that Exim does not properly handle BDAT data
    headers allowing a remote attacker to cause Exim to crash, resulting
    in a denial of service.

    For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 4.89-2+deb9u2. Default installations disable advertising the
    ESMTP CHUNKING extension and are not affected by these issues.

    We recommend that you upgrade your exim4 packages.
