Logic fuckup?

Apache Spamassassin
SpamAssassin is a mail filter which attempts to identify spam using
a variety of mechanisms including text analysis, Bayesian filtering,
DNS blocklists, and collaborative filtering databases.
SpamAssassin is a project of the Apache Software Foundation (ASF).
Postfix
What is Postfix? It is Wietse Venema's mailer that started life at IBM
research as an alternative to the widely-used Sendmail program.
Postfix attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and secure.
The outside has a definite Sendmail-ish flavor, but the inside is
completely different.
Spamassassin Milter
A little plugin for the Sendmail Milter (Mail Filter) library
that pipes all incoming mail (including things received by rmail/UUCP)
through the SpamAssassin, a highly customizable SpamFilter.
Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The Spamassassin Milter Plugin can be tricked into executing any command
as the root user remotely.
If spamass-milter is run with the expand flag (-x option) it runs a
popen() including the attacker supplied
recipient (RCPT TO).
>From spamass-milter-0.3.1 (-latest) Line 820:
//
// Gets called once for each recipient
//
// stores the first recipient in the spamassassin object and
// stores all addresses and the number thereof (some redundancy)
//
sfsistat
mlfi_envrcpt(SMFICTX* ctx, char** envrcpt)
{
struct context *sctx = (struct context*)smfi_getpriv(ctx);
SpamAssassin* assassin = sctx->assassin;
FILE *p;
#if defined(__FreeBSD__)
int rv;
#endif
debug(D_FUNC, "mlfi_envrcpt: enter");
if (flag_expand)
{
/* open a pipe to sendmail so we can do address
expansion */
char buf[1024];
char *fmt="%s -bv \"%s\" 2>&1";
#if defined(HAVE_SNPRINTF)
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf)-1, fmt, SENDMAIL, envrcpt[0]);
#else
/* XXX possible buffer overflow here // is this a
joke ?! */
sprintf(buf, fmt, SENDMAIL, envrcpt[0]);
#endif
debug(D_RCPT, "calling %s", buf);
#if defined(__FreeBSD__) /* popen bug - see PR bin/50770 */
rv = pthread_mutex_lock(&popen_mutex);
if (rv)
{
debug(D_ALWAYS, "Could not lock popen mutex: %
s", strerror(rv));
abort();
}
#endif
p = popen(buf, "r"); [1]
if (!p)
{
debug(D_RCPT, "popen failed(%s). Will not
expand aliases", strerror(errno));
assassin->expandedrcpt.push_back(envrcpt[0]);
[1] the vulnerable popen() call.
Remote Root Exploit PoC through postfix
