Sendmail, Inc., and the Sendmail Consortium announce the availability
of sendmail 8.11.6 and 8.12.0.Beta19.

These new versions fix a security problem reported by SecurityFocus
regarding command line processing.  This vulnerability is present in
sendmail open source versions between 8.10.0 and 8.11.5 as well as all
8.12.0.Beta versions.  Therefore, sendmail 8.12.0.Beta users should
upgrade
to 8.12.0.Beta19.

The problem was not present in 8.10 or earlier versions.  However, as
always, we recommend using the latest version.  Note that this problem
is
not remotely exploitable.

Please send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and general
feedback to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

8.11.6/8.11.6   2001/08/20
        SECURITY: Fix a possible memory access violation when specifying
                out-of-bounds debug parameters.  Problem detected by
                Cade Cairns of SecurityFocus.
        Avoid leaking recipient information in unrelated DSNs.  This could
                happen if a connection is aborted, several mails had been
                scheduled for delivery via that connection, and the timeout
                is reached such that several DSNs are sent next.  Problem
                noted by Dileepan Moorkanat of Hewlett-Packard.
        Fix a possible segmentation violation when specifying too many
                wildcard operators in a rule.  Problem detected by
                Werner Wiethege.
        Avoid a segmentation fault on non-matching Hesiod lookups.  Problem
                noted by Russell McOrmond of flora.ca
