But for this to be exploited, there needs to be a /usr/ucb/mail command run
by root, using input which can be influenced in some way by non-root user.
I don't think there's any in the base distrib but could be probably found
in third-party scripts. It would be best if /usr/ucb/mail was fixed to not
accept shell escapes from non-tty inputs.
