Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Emacs versions prior to 29.3

Description The issue concerns how Gnus in Emacs handles inline MIME contents, treating them as trusted. This could potentially lead to security issues, although specific details about exploitation or affected devices are not provided.

Recommendations For versions prior to 29.3, update to version 29.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of Gnus for handling inline MIME contents until the update is applied.
