Description Maxim 2022-07-09 14:24:40 UTC

Description of problem:

Last update exim in EPEL have bug https://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2845, thats preventing to start exim at all, going to SIGSEV

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Version     : 4.95
Release     : 1.el7


How reproducible:

Each install, cause many ciphers have underscores

Steps to Reproduce:
1. update to 4.95-1 
2. edit /etc/exim/exim.conf
2. add tls_require_ciphers = TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 to main section
3. restart, got in paniclog

2022-07-09 12:26:41 SIGSEGV (maybe attempt to write to immutable memory)

and crash

Actual results:

exim crashed until tls_require_ciphers commented out or wiped ciphers with understrokes

Expected results:

exim running fine

Additional info:

cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

seems to be EPEL8 have same problem

EPEL 7 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2024-06-30.\n\nEPEL 7 is no longer maintained, which means that it\nwill not receive any further security or bug fix updates.\n As a result we are closing this bug.
