"Dawid Golunski from legalhackers-com [1] discovered that the mail
transport in Swift Mailer allowed remote attackers to pass extra
parameters to the mail command and consequently execute arbitrary code
via a \' (backslash double quote) in a crafted e-mail address in the
From, ReturnPath, or Sender header.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
4.1.5-1+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libphp-swiftmailer packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
