It is questionable that this is called a security vulnerability. The
responsibility of sanitising the supplied e-mailaddresses is the domain
of the person building an application on top of php-mail - blindly
accepting any input and passing it on is not secure.

What php-mail does is add an extra layer of protection which is a good
security *feature* but in my opinion not a bug in previous versions.
Similarly you could state that the 'sendmail' command is buggy because
it accepts random Bcc headers.
