Subject: Re: Exim < 4.95 heap overflow
Adding the Exim security folks to this thread to shed some light on the
original report and CVE discussion.
Per their
https://github.com/Exim/exim/wiki/SecurityReleaseProcess they email this
group and distros to notify of security issues. They will also issue CVEs.
However I don’t actually see any CVE issued since 2019
