Descriptions

Outlook Express 5.5 and 6.0 on Windows treats a carriage return ("CR") in a message header as if it were a valid carriage return/line feed combination (CR/LF), which could allow remote attackers to bypass virus protection and or other filtering mechanisms via a mail message with headers that only contain the CR, which causes Outlook to create separate headers.

Outlook Express 5.5 y 6.0 en Windows trata un retorno de carro (CR) en una cabecera de mensaje como si fuera una combinación válida retorno de carro/avance de línea (CR/LF), lo que podría permitir a atacantes remotos evitar la protección contra virus y/o otros mecanismos de filtrado mediante correos con cabeceras que sólo contienen el CR, lo que hace que Outlook cree cabeceras separadas.
