Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the dkim_process_set function within dkim.c of OpenDKIM's Tag Tokenizer component, where insufficient validation allows use of untrusted input sources during DKIM tag processing. Remote attackers can exploit this via network-based manipulation of DKIM signatures without requiring authentication or user interaction. The flaw enables potential message authentication bypass and email spoofing.

Affected products
