Exim · Exim · CVE-2014-2972
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Exim versions prior to 4.83
**Description**
The issue allows local users to gain privileges and execute arbitrary commands via a crafted lookup value. This is due to the expansion of mathematical comparisons twice in the expand.c file.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 4.83, update to version 4.83 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the lookup value to minimize the risk of exploitation.
