summary of the changes in that release.
+8.7.6/8.7.3 96/09/17
+ SECURITY: It is possible to force getpwuid to fail when writing the
+ queue file, causing sendmail to fall back to running programs
+ as the default user. This is not exploitable from off-site.
+ Workarounds include using a unique user for the DefaultUser
+ (old u & g options) and using smrsh as the local shell.
+ SECURITY: fix some buffer overruns; in at least one case this allows
+ a local user to get root. This is not known to be exploitable
+ from off-site. The workaround is to disable chfn(1) commands.

8.7.5/8.7.3 96/03/04
Fix glitch in 8.7.4 when putting certain internal lines; this can
in some case cause connections to hang. Patch from Eric
