fetchmail: Buffer Overflow Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200507-21 (fetchmail: Buffer Overflow) fetchmail does not properly validate UIDs coming from a POP3 mail server. The UID is placed in a fixed length buffer on the stack, which can be overflown. Impact Very long UIDs returned from a malicious or compromised POP3 server can cause fetchmail to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service, or permit arbitrary code to be placed on the stack. Workaround There are no known workarounds at this time.
