CVE-2014-9116 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 1 source packages (mutt), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.
The write_one_header function in mutt 1.5.23 does not properly handle newline characters at the beginning of a header, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a header with an empty body, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow in the mutt_substrdup function.
