Bug ID: 2141
Summary: Hints db access should define a db environment
Product: Exim
Version: 4.88
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Queues

Apparently Berkeley DB looks for a DB_CONFIG file in cwd for an "environment"
definition; this could be used to point to an alternate DB file location so
corrupting an unexpected file, which has security implications.
We should create a known environment for BDB before opening the db, to avoid
this.
