   If the Postfix sendmail replacement is installed on a system an
   attacker may be able to gain root privileges on the local host via
   sudo(8) which runs the mailer as root with an environment inherited
   from the invoking user.  While this is a bug in sudo it is not
   believed to be possible to exploit when sendmail (the mailer that
   ships with OpenBSD) is the mailer.  As of version 1.6.5, sudo passes
   the mailer an environment that is not subject to influence from the
   invoking user.
   <a href="ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/3.0/common/011_sudo.patch">A source code patch exists which remedies the problem</a>.
