- 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 code is imported in the Balsa package.
- 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.
- For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
- version 1.2.4-2.2.
- The old stable distribution (potato) does not seem to be affected by
- this problem.
- For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
- We recommend that you upgrade your balsa package.
