Description:Summary:

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated claws-mail fix security vulnerabilities

A stack-based buffer overflow has been found in conv_euctojis() after applying
incomplete patch for CVE-2015-8614. In conv_euctojis() the comparison is with
outlen - 3, but each pass through the loop uses up to 5 bytes and the rest of
the function may add another 4 bytes. The comparison should presumably be
'<= outlen - 9' or equivalently '< outlen - 8'. (CVE-2015-8708)

Affected Software/OS:
'claws-mail' package(s) on Mageia 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
7.5

CVSS Vector:
