Descriptions
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.
La función write_one_header en mutt 1.5.23 no maneja correctamente los caracteres de línea nueva al inicio de una cabecera, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de una cabecera con el cuerpo vacío, lo que provoca un desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica en la función mutt_substrdup.
