Doc Text:
A denial of service flaw has been discovered in OpenSMTPD. OpenSMTPD contains the smtpctl program, which communicates with the smtpd: control daemon instance via a UNIX domain socket in /var/run/smtpd.sock. The UNIX domain socket smtpd.sock has file mode 0666 and is thus writable for all users in the system, allowing anybody to create local connections towards smtpd.
