The Exim development team reports:
All installations having Exim set-uid root and using ‘perl_startup’ are
vulnerable to a local privilege escalation. Any user who can start an
instance of Exim (and this is normally any user) can gain root
privileges. If you do not use ‘perl_startup’ you should be safe.
