CVE-2020-28024 is fixed in 6 products on 1 platform, first by exim4 4.90.1-1ubuntu1.8, released May 4, 2021. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
Exim 4 before 4.94.2 allows Buffer Underwrite that may result in unauthenticated remote attackers executing arbitrary commands, because smtp_ungetc was only intended to push back characters, but can actually push back non-character error codes such as EOF.
