Bug#68745: cat somefile | mail -s teste root@localhost segfaults

[Henrique M Holschuh <hmh+debianbug@rcm.org.br>]

Package: mailx
Version: 1:8.1.1-10.1.2
Severity: grave

Since a LOT of security scanners (including some Debian ones) depend on mail
working to send their reports, I'm not reporting this bug as a mere
'important'.

cat something | mail -s ReadThis root@localhost segfaults. The problem seems
to be triggered by the stdin redirect, as cat something | mail user@domain
also segfaults, and so does cat something | mail.
