VUL-0: CVE-2023-4874: mutt: null pointer dereference when composing an email
Last modified: 2023-10-13 14:33:22 UTC
When composing an email, miscellaneous extra headers are stored in a userhdrs list. Mutt first checks to ensure each header contains at least a colon character, passes the entire userhdr field (name, colon, and body) to the rfc2047 decoder, and safe_strdup()'s the result on the userhdrs list. An empty result would from the decode would result in a NULL headers being added to list.
