Summary

Buffer overflow in Mutt 1.4.0 and possibly earlier versions, 1.5.x up to 1.5.3, and other programs that use Mutt code such as Balsa before 2.0.10, allows a remote malicious IMAP server to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted folder.

Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: : Updated balsa and mutt packages fix vulnerabilities

Notes

Topic

New Balsa, Mutt, and libesmtp packages that fix potential buffer overflow vulnerabilities are now available.

Details

Mutt is a text-mode email client. Balsa is a GNOME email client which includes code from Mutt. A potential buffer overflow in Mutt version 1.4 exists when parsing mailbox names returned by an IMAP server. It is possible that a hostile IMAP server could cause arbitrary code to be executed by the user running Mutt. This issue affects versions of Mutt provided with Red Hat Linux 8.0 and Red Hat Linux 9. Versions 1.2 and higher of Balsa incorporate the vulnerable Mutt IMAP code and are therefore vulnerable to this issue as well. It is possible that a hostile IMAP server could cause arbitrary code to be executed by the user running Balsa. This issue affects Red Hat Linux 7.2, 7.3, 8.0 and 9. Additionally, a buffer overflow in libesmtp, an SMTP library used by Balsa, before version 0.8.11 allows a hostile remote SMTP server to execute arbitrary code via a certain response or cause a denial of service via long server responses. This issue only affects versions of libesmtp provided by Red Hat Linux 7.2 and 7.3. Users of Mutt and Balsa are recommended to update to these erratum packages containing updated versions of Mutt, Balsa, and libesmtp which are not vulnerable to these issues.

Vulnerability from csaf_redhat

Published

Modified

Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: balsa security update

Notes

Topic

Updated Balsa packages are available which fix potential vulnerabilities in the IMAP handling code and in libesmtp.

Details

Balsa is a GNOME email client which includes code from Mutt. A potential buffer overflow exists in Balsa versions 1.2 and higher when parsing mailbox names returned by an IMAP server. It is possible that a hostile IMAP server could cause arbitrary code to be executed by the user running Balsa. Additionally, a buffer overflow in libesmtp (an SMTP library used by Balsa) before version 0.8.11 allows a hostile remote SMTP server to execute arbitrary code via a certain response or cause a denial of service via long server responses. Users of Balsa are recommended to upgrade to these erratum packages which include updated versions of Balsa and libesmtp which are not vulnerable to these issues. Red Hat would like to thank CORE security for discovering the vulnerability, and the Mutt team for providing a patch.

Balsa is a GNOME email client which\nincludes code from Mutt.\n\nA potential buffer overflow in Mutt version 1.4 exists when parsing mailbox\nnames returned by an IMAP server. It is possible that a hostile IMAP server\ncould cause arbitrary code to be executed by the user running Mutt.  This\nissue affects versions of Mutt provided with Red Hat Linux 8.0 and Red Hat\nLinux 9.\n\nVersions 1.2 and higher of Balsa incorporate the vulnerable Mutt IMAP code\nand are therefore vulnerable to this issue as well.  It is possible that a\nhostile IMAP server could cause arbitrary code to be executed by the user\nrunning Balsa.  This issue affects Red Hat Linux 7.2, 7.3, 8.0 and 9.\n\nAdditionally, a buffer overflow in libesmtp, an SMTP library used by Balsa,\nbefore version 0.8.11 allows a hostile remote SMTP server to execute\narbitrary code via a certain response or cause a denial of service via long\nserver responses.  This issue only affects versions of libesmtp provided by\nRed Hat Linux 7.2 and 7.3.\n\nUsers of Mutt and Balsa are recommended to update to these erratum packages\ncontaining updated versions of Mutt, Balsa, and libesmtp which are not\nvulnerable to these issues.",
