Today I received an email from Linux Malware Detect Software on the vulnerability of my server and would like to share with you how to resolve this issue. Below is the content an email.
Important security notice, The Linux Malware Detect installation running on server has detected that you may be vulnerable to a critical remote code execution vulnerability. The currently installed version of Exim MTA v4 improperly validates recipient addresses and can allow malicious code execution to take place. This may provide a path for malicious actors to gain root access, remotely, to this system. This vulnerability currently has known exploits circulating with both targeted and automated compromises taking place against vulnerable systems. Please upgrade Exim to version 4.92 or a known patched earlier version immediately. Alternatively, if upgrading is not an immediate option, consider disabling the Exim MTA service as soon as possible.
Disable Exim:
touch /etc/eximdisable service exim stop systemctl disable exim chkconfig exim off
Upgrade Exim:
1. DirectAdmin:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild ./build update ./build set exim yes ./build set eximconf yes ./build update ./build exim ./build exim_conf

If you want to replace the certificate for your hostname with a custom certificate but you had enabled Let’s Encrypt, you will need to disable Let’s Encrypt for the hostname first. The following command let’s DirectAdmin know that it does not need to renew the Let’s Encrypt certificate. This is required as DirectAdmin will renew the certificate +/- 60 days after the last renewal, even when the Let’s Encrypt certificate is not installed.
rm -rf /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/user_name/domains/domain_name.lt.san_config rm -rf /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/user_name/domains/domain_name.lt.cert.creation_time
