Dear Berlene,
Please allow me to share this information too:

*SENDMAIL PATCHING CALLED URGENT
By Keith Regan
Computer experts warned that a Sendmail vulnerability discovered by Internet Security Systems (ISS) should be patched quickly, as there is evidence hackers are working to exploit the flaw.
The buffer-overflow vulnerability in the Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) of widely used Sendmail makes it possible for a hacker to gain control of mail servers.
The Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) published an advisory Monday, urging that patches made available from Sendmail Inc. and others be applied.
CERT analyst Jeff Havrilla says reports from "reliable sources" indicate code is circulating that could lead to a widespread exploitation of the vulnerability.
The vulnerability has the distinction of being the first to be vetted by the Department of Homeland Security, says Dan Ingevaldson, team leader of X-Force R&D at ISS. Coordination with Homeland Security enabled key industries to receive advance notice as well.
"We felt this issue was important and critical enough to take it a step further," says Ingevaldson, who found the flaw last December. "All indications were no one else knew at the time."
While some fear more Sendmail flaws remain undiscovered, Ingevaldson says what matters most is how quickly patches are applied.
Havrilla agrees. "It's a race," he says. "Intruders are actively seeking to exploit this flaw." http://www.sendmail.org/8.12.8.html

Re: PLEASE PATCH YOUR SENDMAIL!
when performing a check on the binairy with strings(1), make sure to include the -a option. In some binaries, the string "Dropped invalid comments from header address" will otherwise not be shown (8.11.1 for 11i is known for this)
It depends
