This error was a + regression in 8.12.10. Problem detected and diagnosed + Lech Szychowski of the Polish Power Grid Company. + Properly count the number of queue runners in a work group and + make sure the total limit of MaxQueueChildren is not + exceeded. Based on patch from Takayuki Yoshizawa of + Techfirm, Inc. + Take care of systems that can generate time values where the + seconds can exceed the usual range of 0 to 59. + Problem noted by Randy Diffenderfer of EDS. + Avoid regeneration of identical queue identifiers by processes + whose process id is the same as that of the initial + sendmail process that was used to start the daemon. + Problem noted by Randy Diffenderfer of EDS. + When a milter invokes smfi_delrcpt() compare the supplied + recipient address also against the printable addresses + of the current list to deal with rewritten addresses. + Based on patch from Sean Hanson of The Asylum. + BadRcptThrottle now also works for addresses which return the + error mailer, e.g., virtusertable entries with the + right hand side error:. Patch from Per Hedeland. + Fix printing of 8 bit characters as octals in log messages. + Based on patch by Andrey J. Melnikoff. + Undo change of algorithm for MIME 7-bit base64 encoding to 8-bit + text that has been introduced in 8.12.3. There are some + examples where the new code fails, but the old code works. + To get the 8.12.3-8.12.10 version, compile sendmail with + -DMIME7TO8_OLD=0. If you have an example of improper + 7 to 8 bit conversion please send it to us. + Return normal error code for unknown SMTP commands instead of + the one specified by check_relay or a milter for a + connection. Problem noted by Andrzej Filip. + Some ident responses contain data after the terminating CRLF which + causes sendmail to log "POSSIBLE ATTACK...newline in string". + To avoid this everything after LF is ignored. + If the operating system supports O_EXLOCK and HASFLOCK is set + then a possible race condition for creating qf files + can be avoided. Note: the race condition does not + exist within sendmail, but between sendmail and an + external application that accesses qf files. + Log the proper options name for TLS related mising files for + the CACertPath, CACertFile, and DHParameters options. + Do not split an envelope if it will be discarded, otherwise df + files could be left behind. Problem found by Wolfgang + Breyha. + The use of the environment variables HOME and HOSTALIASES has been + deprecated and will be removed in version 8.13. This only + effects configuration which preserve those variable via the + 'E' command in the cf file as sendmail clears out its entire + environment. + Portability: + Add support for Darwin 7.0/Mac OS X 10.3 (a.k.a. Panther). + Solaris 10 has unsetenv(), patch from Craig Mohrman of + Sun Microsystems. + LIBMILTER: Add extra checks in case a broken MTA sends bogus data + to libmilter. Based on code review by Rob Grzywinski. + SMRSH: Properly assemble commands that contain '&&' or '||'. + Problem noted by Eric Lee of Talking Heads. + New Files: + devtools/OS/Darwin.7.0 + +8.12.10/8.12.10 2003/09/24 (Released: 2003/09/17) SECURITY: Fix a buffer overflow in address parsing. Problem detected by Michal Zalewski, patch from Todd C. Miller of Courtesan Consulting. |
