The smtp_filter function in spamdyke before 3.1.8 does not filter RCPT commands after encountering the first DATA command, which allows remote attackers to use the server as an open mail relay by sending RCPT commands with invalid recipients, followed by a DATA command, followed by arbitrary RCPT commands and a second DATA command.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Spamdyke versions before 3.1.8 could let outsiders abuse a protected mail server as an open relay. That can cause spam delivery, reputation damage, blacklisting, and operational disruption. The public record does not provide CVSS scoring or evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is likely limited to organizations running spamdyke versions before 3.1.8 in front of SMTP services reachable by untrusted networks. Treat as high priority if legacy spamdyke is still internet-facing. The main risk is not data theft but abuse of corporate mail infrastructure, with possible blacklisting and customer trust impact. Mitigation focus: Upgrade spamdyke deployments older than 3.1.8 where still present.; Confirm SMTP relay requires intended authentication and recipient restrictions.; Restrict externally reachable SMTP filtering paths to required sources only..
