Descriptions

Amavis before 2.12.3 and 2.13.x before 2.13.1, in part because of its use of MIME-tools, has an Interpretation Conflict (relative to some mail user agents) when there are multiple boundary parameters in a MIME email message. Consequently, there can be an incorrect check for banned files or malware.

Amavis anterior a 2.12.3 y 2.13.x anterior a 2.13.1, en parte debido a su uso de herramientas MIME, tiene un conflicto de interpretación (en relación con algunos agentes de usuario de correo) cuando hay múltiples parámetros de límite en un mensaje de correo electrónico MIME. En consecuencia, puede haber una verificación incorrecta de archivos prohibidos o malware.

It was discovered that amavisd-new incorrectly handled certain MIME email messages with multiple boundary parameters. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass checks for banned files or malware.
