- New mutt packages that fix a remotely-triggerable crash in the menu drawing
- code are now available.
-
- Mutt is a text-mode mail user agent.
-
- A bug was found in the index menu code in versions of mutt. A remote
- attacker could send a carefully crafted mail message that can cause mutt
- to segfault and possibly execute arbitrary code as the victim. The Common
- Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
- CAN-2004-0078 to this issue.
-
- It is recommended that all mutt users upgrade to these updated packages,
- which contain a backported security patch and are not vulnerable to this
- issue.
-
- Red Hat would like to thank Niels Heinen for reporting this issue.
-
- Note: mutt-1.2.5.1 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 is not vulnerable to
- this issue.
