   The signal handlers in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sen
   dmail&sektion=8&format=html">sendmail(8)</a> contain code that is unsafe in the
   context of a signal handler.  This leads to potentially serious
   race conditions.  At the moment this is a theoretical attack only
   and can only be exploited on the local host (if at all).<br>
   <a href="ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.8/common/028_sendmail.patch">A source code patch exists</a> which remedies the problem by updating sendmail to version 8.11.4.
