The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing e-mail messages. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially-crafted email message containing an overly-long SRC parameter to the IMG tag. Successful exploitation requires that the HTML preview option is enabled and that the target user replies to or forwards the malicious email. The vulnerability is reported in version 6.5.6. Prior versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 6.5.7.
