Anyone using Sendmail should check 
https://gtoc.iss.net/issEn/delivery/xforce/alertdetail.jsp?oid=21950

Impact:

Attackers may remotely exploit this vulnerability to gain "root" or
superuser control of any vulnerable Sendmail server. Sendmail and all other
email servers are typically exposed to the Internet in order to send and
receive Internet email. Vulnerable Sendmail servers will not be protected by
legacy security devices such as firewalls and/or packet filters. This
vulnerability is especially dangerous because the exploit can be delivered
within an email message and the attacker doesn't need any specific knowledge
of the target to launch a successful attack. 

Affected Versions:

Sendmail versions from 5.79 to 8.12.7 are vulnerable

Note: The affected versions of Sendmail commercial, Sendmail open source
running on all platforms are known to be vulnerable.
