Description Josh Bressers 2007-04-04 20:35:40 UTC 
A flaw has been found in the way Evolution handles APOP authentication.  It is
possible for an attacker to discover authentication credentials by sending
certain responses to Evolution.

The upstream bug has more details:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424373

This flaw should also affect RHEL 3 and 4.
