Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mutt versions 0.94.13 through 2.2.3

Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the mutt decode uuencoded() function of the Mutt email client. This can allow a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to protected information or cause a denial of service. The problem arises from the function reading past the end of an input line.
