Package        : mutt
Version        : 1.7.2-1+deb9u5
CVE ID         : CVE-2021-3181
Debian Bug     : 980326

rfc822.c in Mutt through 2.0.4 allows remote attackers to
cause a denial of service (mailbox unavailability) by sending
email messages with sequences of semicolon characters in
RFC822 address fields (aka terminators of empty groups).

A small email message from the attacker can cause large
memory consumption, and the victim may then be unable to
see email messages from other persons.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version
1.7.2-1+deb9u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your mutt packages.
