Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'evolution' package(s) announced via the DLA-1766-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Hanno Bock discovered that GNOME Evolution is prone to OpenPGP signatures being spoofed for arbitrary messages using a specially crafted HTML email. This issue was mitigated by moving the security bar with encryption and signature information above the message headers.

For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 3.12.9~
git20141130.241663-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your evolution packages.
