DESCRIPTION

Mail Gem for Ruby contains a flaw related to the failure to properly sanitise input passed from an email from address in the 'deliver()' function in 'lib/mail/network/delivery_methods/sendmail.rb' before being used as a command line argument. This may allow a remote attacker to inject arbitrary shell commands.
