Sendmail SSL Certificate NULL Character Spoofing Vulnerability
http://www.sendmail.org/releases/8.14.4

Sendmail, Inc., and the Sendmail Consortium announce the availability of sendmail 8.14.4. This version fixes some problems: * some certificate authorities do not properly check the requests they are signing and hence allow spoofing via an embedded NUL in the CN entry. Some checks have been added to deal with "bogus" CNs (see below and doc/op/op.*).
