Package: evolution Version: 2.22.3.1-1 Severity: grave Justification: security; strangers might DoS evolution causing a crash upon startup until other mail piles up.
When receiving a specific e-mail message containing a Google Calendar invitation, Evolution crashes. It then crashes again at boot, when trying again to display the last received (same) message. The default character set might be set to either UTF-8 or ISO-8859-15; it is unknown at this point whether the Google Calendar invite is exactly well-formatted with respect to character encoding. What is known is that the second-to-last character of the subject is a "lowercase eacute" (U+00E9) and that there is also another such character in the middle of the subject string. From looking at the way the stack trace from gdb ends up into an UTF-8 aware gnome-terminal, it seems some mojibake issue might be at play. libglib2.0-0 is the place of crash, for sure, but evolution (camel) proper might as well be charged with insufficient disinfection of incoming remote data (a definitive security risk) I'll attach the stack trace here, very slightly edited to remove private data (overstriking only ASCII characters with other ASCII characters) -- Cyrille ------ stack dump #0 0x00007f0c55b6ae30 in IA__g_markup_escape_text ( text=0x4887000 <Address 0x4887000 out of bounds>,
