Description:

Alan Cox discovered a problem in gtkhtml, an HTML rendering widget
used by the Evolution mail reader. Certain malformed messages could
cause a crash due to a null pointer dereference.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.2-1.woody1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.4-6.2.
We recommend that you upgrade your gtkhtml package and restart
Evolution.
