Insight

Insight

Evolution is the GNOME collection of personal information management (PIM) tools. A format string flaw was found in the way Evolution displayed encrypted mail content. If a user opened a carefully crafted mail message, arbitrary code could be executed as the user running Evolution. (CVE-2008-0072) All users of Evolution should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch which resolves this issue. Red Hat would like to thank Ulf Härnhammar of Secunia Research for finding and reporting this issue.
