CVE-2011-1407
The DKIM implementation in Exim 4.7x before 4.76 permits matching for DKIM identities to apply to lookup items, instead of only strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or access a filesystem via a crafted identity.

Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.80%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
