quote from advisory: |

|
23 |
"A remotely exploitable buffer overflow exists within the parsing of the |
24 |
message/external-body type attribute name/value pairs. Failure to check |
25 |
that the length of the longest attribute is less than the space |
26 |
available allows a maliciously formed e-mail message to overwrite |
27 |
control structures." |
28 |
|
29 |
"A remotely exploitable integer overflow exists in the parsing of e-mail |
30 |
headers, allowing for arbitrary code execution upon the opening of a |
31 |
malicious e-mail." |
