How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:14.04 netqmail to version 1.06-6.2~deb10u1build0.14.04.1+esm1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream netqmail package and not the netqmail package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

commands.c in qmail, when running on 64 bit platforms with a large amount of virtual memory, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long SMTP command without a space character, which causes an array to be referenced with a negative index.
