If a user disabled the Itip Formatter plugin and viewed a crafted iCalendar attachment, an attacker could cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. Evolution also did not properly validate the DESCRIPTION field when processing iCalendar attachments. If a user were tricked into accepting a crafted iCalendar attachment and replied to it from the calendar window, an attacker could cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. In addition, Matej Cepl found that Evolution did not properly validate date fields when processing iCalendar attachments, which could lead to a denial of service if the user viewed a crafted iCalendar attachment with the Itip Formatter plugin disabled.
