Subject: mutt-1.3.25i: Mutt 1.3.25i coredumps on trying to display certain 
messages.
To: submit@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Bcc:

Package: mutt
Version: 1.3.25i
Severity: grave

-- Please type your report below this line

Mutt 1.3.25 worked OK in my preliminary testing, but once it was
installed on this system, I and the (only?) other mutt user on this
system both experienced core dumps when reading certain messages. 
(BTW, gdb hung on the input from flea and I had to SIGTERM it from
another shell; I think there is some incompatiblity between the
flea-generated gdb.rc and the gdb version on this system.  However it
looks like you've got some usable output anyway.)

Because the crash was a segfault and was triggered repeatably by
reading specific input messages in both cases, that suggests a
potential for a remote email-based exploit like the one recently fixed.

The single email in the mailbox attached below (a spam complaint resent
to me by way of the abuse role account, in this case) reproducibly
crashes mutt1.3.25 on this system.  mutt1.0 can read it fine.
