Category:	Debian Local Security Checks
Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-2529-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'mutt' package(s) announced via the DLA-2529-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'mutt' package(s) announced via the DLA-2529-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: rfc822.c in Mutt through 2.0.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (mailbox unavailability) by sending email messages with sequences of semicolon characters in RFC822 address fields (aka terminators of empty groups). A small email message from the attacker can cause large memory consumption, and the victim may then be unable to see email messages from other persons. For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 1.7.2-1+deb9u5. We recommend that you upgrade your mutt packages. For the detailed security status of mutt please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references] Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: [link moved to references] Affected Software/OS: 'mutt' package(s) on Debian 9. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
