NASL family Debian Local Security Checks NASL id DEBIAN_DSA-468.NASL description Ulf Harnhammar discovered a number of vulnerabilities in emil, a filter for converting Internet mail messages. The vulnerabilities fall into two categories : - CAN-2004-0152 Buffer overflows in (1) the encode_mime function, (2) the encode_uuencode function, (3) the decode_uuencode function. These bugs could allow a carefully crafted email message to cause the execution of arbitrary code supplied with the message when it is acted upon by emil. - CAN-2004-0153 Format string bugs in statements which print various error messages.
