CVE-2025-26794

Dear Exim users,

we got a vulnerability report and are going to release a security
release on Friday, Feb 21th, 2025, at 12:00 UTC (coordinated
release date).

Distribution packagers are informed already since Tuesday evening.
Exim-users and oss-security where notified yesterday (Wednesday) evening.

The reported vulnerability is limited to the current Exim version 4.98.
Older versions are not affected.

Please understand that we don't share further details yet.

The new version 4.98.1 *will* be available

via Git (branch exim-4.98+fixes, tag exim-4.98.1):

In case you had access to our security repo previously already, you can
fetch the patches already in advance from
   ssh://[email protected]/exim/exim-distros.git
But please don't publish details.

Commits and tarballs are signed by me, with the same key that I'm using
to sign this message.

(In case you're building directly from our master branch: there are no
patches to the master branch yet.)

Thank you for using Exim.

    Best regards from Dresden/Germany
