The hhp-pine remote exploit advisory.

A few months ago I found a bigger problem with the
charset bug then imagined. With a uuencode/uudecode
method in the charset, and an index.html of a site, it's
possible to run any program/script wanted to on the remote
system. When the email is read it launches lynx -source
and grabs the index.html which is then uudecoded and ran.
This includes root and non-root users infected. Many big
servers run pine, and having fingerd running, most of the
time allows us complete access to get every username on the
server, which then is simple to send the infected emails to
each user.
We have tested this on our own systems with full success.
These operating systems include BSD, Linux, IRIX, AIX, SCO,
and SunOS.
I'm sure this will be fixed in the newer version along
with the patch already made for the current version.
hhp-pine.tar is available to download at our site,
