CVE-2011-1929 – dovecot: potential crash when parsing header names that contain NUL characters

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2011-1929

lib-mail/message-header-parser.c in Dovecot 1.2.x before 1.2.17 and 2.0.x before 2.0.13 does not properly handle '\0' characters in header names, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash or mailbox corruption) via a crafted e-mail message. lib-mail/message-header-parser.c en Dovecot v1.2.x antes de v1.2.17 y v2.0.x antes de v2.0.13 no controla correctamente los caracteres '\ 0 ' en los nombres de cabecera, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída del demonio o la corrupción de buzón) a través de un mensaje de e-mail manipulado. • http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2011-May/059085.html http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2011-May/059086.html http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/3698dfe0f21c http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2011-June/061384.html http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2011-May/060815.html http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2011-May/060825.html http://openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2011/05/18/4 http://openwall.com/lists/oss-se • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation •
