Someone on campus called me yesterday inquiring about how to stop relaying
through sendmail.  He thought he had configured his sendmail.cf to not
allow relaying, but then got notified he was relaying mail.  Today after
some searching he found some information about FormMail.pl where it can be
used to cause your webserver to relay mail.  He found his information from
www.8wire.com.  Is anyone else familar with this and have you encountered
it?  The logs show attacks targeted at the cgi-bin that sent out tons of
porno spam.

Just trying to find out more information and I am surprised if it is
indeed happening why I haven't seen anything on CERT or bugtraq.

TIA
Lisa
