Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions sendmail versions 5.59 through 5.65

Description The issue allows local users to gain root privileges by modifying the IFS variable and passing crafted values to the -oR option. This is due to the use of popen to process a forwarding host argument in SunOS sendmail.

Recommendations For sendmail versions 5.59 through 5.65, consider restricting access to the -oR option as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Additionally, avoid modifying the IFS variable to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
