[Bug 844] New: h_from empty if angle brackets not closed

http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=844
Summary: h_from empty if angle brackets not closed
Product: Exim
Version: 4.69
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: security
Priority: critical
Component: ACLs
AssignedTo: nigel[at]exim.org
ReportedBy: fperillo[at]totalfax.it
QAContact: fperillo[at]totalfax.it
CC: exim-dev[at]exim.org


Spammers are sending messages with "From:" or "To:" tags in the body w/o
closing the angle bracket, hence the h_from is apparently not parsed correctly
and the h_from exim variable is not assigned, actually disabling acl written
for the h_from sanitization.

An header excerpt from an "offending" message:

Could also the EOL be used to terminate the variables ?)
