Fixed In Version: mutt 2.2.3
Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
A flaw was found in mutt. When reading unencoded messages, mutt uses the line length from the untrusted input without any validation. This flaw allows an attacker to craft a malicious message, which leads to an out-of-bounds read, causing data leaks that include fragments of other unrelated messages.
