Hello,
I'm in the process of upgrading to new exim versions and thought I was fully prepared for the new concept of tainted variables. But this has left me rather confused:


$: exim --version
Exim version 4.94.2 #2 built 13-Jul-2021 16:04:57

(Debian Package: 4.94.2-7)

Warning: ACL "warn" statement skipped: condition test deferred: Tainted MySQL server 'localhost/greylist/greylist/xyz'

I am using a MySQL DB for greylisting. The config variables are defined like this:

"GREYLIST_DBSERVER = localhost/greylist/greylist/xyz"

This is then referred later:

warn set acl_m8 = ${lookup mysql{servers=GREYLIST_DBSERVER;\ GREYLIST_SUBNET}{$value}{result=unknown}}

Why would a local variable which is never set by any external input be tainted?
