Subject: new FormMailish bug - in Movable Type
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2003 11:44:50 -0800
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Justin Mason)

A bug in 'mt-send-entry.cgi': it takes form input and uses that either in the headers of the sendmail'd message. Multiple Tos and newline injection are possible. Apparently it's trivial to exploit, and is being exploited in the wild right now.

Bear in mind, Movable Type is *the* top weblogging software out there.
There are indexes of all weblogs known.  It's trivial for a spammer to
crawl those lists and spam via that script on all the weblogs found
running MT.

Given the number of MT installs, I think this could be more widespread
than FormMail. :(
