Debian Security Advisory DSA 274-2 securityat_private
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
April 7th, 2003 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : mutt
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : CAN-2003-0167
Byrial Jensen discovered a couple of off-by-one buffer overflow in the
IMAP code of Mutt, a text-oriented mail reader supporting IMAP, MIME,
GPG, PGP and threading. This problem could potentially allow a remote
malicious IMAP server to cause a denial of service (crash) and
possibly execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted mail folder.
This advisory only covers the old stable distribution (potato) since
DSA 274-1 already fixed the stable distribution (woody). For the old
stable distribution (potato) this problem has been fixed in version
1.2.5-5.2.
We recommend that you upgrade your mutt package.
