Description:
Previous versions of sendmail do not properly handle a '\0' character in a
Common Name (CN) field of an X.509 certificate, which could allow attackers
to spoof arbitrary SSL-based SMTP servers or bypass intended access
restrictions via a crafted server certificate issued by a legitimate
Certification Authority.
