Hi everybody,
I have the following problem. I installed a box with SuSE 7.2, updated all packages und then checked the security of the server with Nessus.
The result of the scan is, that Nessus could crash sendmail, because of a HELO command with a long argument. Is there a way to prevent this, or is this a problem of the installed SuSE rpm sendmail-8.11.3-68.rpm ?
Exactly what happened? Did you confirm it crashed, or did it ust exit? What is the domain name nessus used in the HELO command? I tried with "aaaaa.." and all I got was "501 5.0.0 Invalid domain name".
