It was discovered that a NULL pointer could be dereferenced
when parsing certain S/MIME messages, leading to denial of
service.

CVE-2012-2110

Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, discovered a vulnerability
in the way DER-encoded ASN.1 data is parsed that can result in
a heap overflow.


Additionally, the fix for CVE-2011-4619 has been updated to address an
issue with SGC handshakes.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in
version 0.9.8o-4squeeze11.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.0.1a-1.");
