I've compiled up sendmail 8.7.6 in response to the recent CERT advisory posted to comp.os.linux.announce about previous versions. I have uploaded it to ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/Incoming/sendmail-8.7.6.upgrade.aout.tar.gz. (MD5 sum: b8237367f2a0f96690ef1c9098801365 sendmail-8.7.6.upgrade.aout.tar.gz) It should be moved to /pub/Linux/system/Mail/delivery some time. First read ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/Incoming/sendmail-8.7.6.upgrade.aout.README. I used gcc 2.6.3, libc 4.6.27, libdb 1.85.1, kernel 1.3.x. If you have an ELF system, I'm afraid that I can't help you until I upgrade :-\. (But if you have a.out libc and libdb libraries installed, these binaries should work.) The paranoid should probably compile their own binaries (get the source from ftp://ftp.sendmail.org/ucb/src/sendmail/sendmail.8.7.6.tar.gz), but my notes in section 2 of the README may be helpful. The installation locations conform to the FSSTND, except for the /bin/mail.local symlink (compatibility) and /var/adm/sm.bin (lack of imagination). Since I have an old Slackware installation, these instructions are probably most helpful to people with similar systems, but ought to be also applicable with minor changes (if any) to most Linux systems out there. However, if you run smail rather than sendmail, you can ignore all this.
