(UUDeview MIME Buffer Overflow)

    By decoding a MIME archive with excessively long strings for various
    parameters, it is possible to crash UUDeview, or cause it to execute
    arbitrary code.
    This vulnerability was originally reported by iDEFENSE as part of a WinZip
    advisory [ Reference: 1 ].
  
Impact :

    An attacker could create a specially crafted MIME file and send it via
    email. When recipient decodes the file, UUDeview may execute arbitrary code
    which is embedded in the MIME file, thus granting the attacker access to
    the recipient's account.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time. As a result, a software upgrade
    is required and users should upgrade to uudeview 0.5.20."
