Description Moritz Muehlenhoff univentionstaff 2014-12-17 09:08:42 CET 
An undocumented feature in mailx (the implementation of the mail command)
allows the execution of arbitrary commands if the email address is obtained
from a remote source (CVE-2014-7844, CVE-2004-2771)

heirloom-mailx is not the default mail(1) command in UCS, a separate bug exists for bsd-mailx.
