The version of exim4 included in Debian's oldstable / etch release is no longer supported by the Debian Security Team. Ideally all users of etch should upgrade to the currently supported release, code-named lenny.
However for those users who still use etch the package here fixes the most severe of the two known problems with exim4:
- CVE-2010-4344
A remote buffer overflow, allowing the execution of arbitrary code as the user Debian-exim. This bug is fixed in the package available here.
- CVE-2010-4345
A privilege escelation allowing the attacker to jump from running code as Debian-exim to running code as root. This bug is not fixed in our package.
