Mutt before 1.14.3 proceeds with a connection even if, in response to a GnuTLS certificate prompt, the user rejects an expired intermediate certificate.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - mutt: buffer overflow via base64 data (CVE-2018-14359)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap/command.c mishandles a     NO response without a message. (CVE-2018-14349)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap/message.c has a stack-     based buffer overflow for a FETCH response with a long INTERNALDATE field. (CVE-2018-14350)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap_quote_string in     imap/util.c does not leave room for quote characters, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow.
    (CVE-2018-14352)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap_quote_string in     imap/util.c has an integer underflow. (CVE-2018-14353)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. They allow remote IMAP     servers to execute arbitrary commands via backquote characters, related to the mailboxes command     associated with a manual subscription or unsubscription. (CVE-2018-14354)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. pop.c mishandles a zero-     length UID. (CVE-2018-14356)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. They allow remote IMAP     servers to execute arbitrary commands via backquote characters, related to the mailboxes command     associated with an automatic subscription. (CVE-2018-14357)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap/message.c has a stack-     based buffer overflow for a FETCH response with a long RFC822.SIZE field. (CVE-2018-14358)

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 allows an IMAP fcc/postpone man-in-the-middle attack via a PREAUTH response.
    (CVE-2020-14093)

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 proceeds with a connection even if, in response to a GnuTLS certificate prompt, the     user rejects an expired intermediate certificate. (CVE-2020-14154)

  - Mutt before 1.14.4 and NeoMutt before 2020-06-19 have a STARTTLS buffering issue that affects IMAP, SMTP,     and POP3. When a server sends a begin TLS response, the client reads additional data (e.g., from a man-     in-the-middle attacker) and evaluates it in a TLS context, aka response injection. (CVE-2020-14954)

  - Mutt before 2.0.2 and NeoMutt before 2020-11-20 did not ensure that $ssl_force_tls was processed if an     IMAP server's initial server response was invalid. The connection was not properly closed, and the code     could continue attempting to authenticate. This could result in authentication credentials being exposed     on an unencrypted connection, or to a machine-in-the-middle. (CVE-2020-28896)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap_quote_string in     imap/util.c does not leave room for quote characters, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow.
    (CVE-2018-14352)

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap_quote_string in     imap/util.c has an integer underflow. (CVE-2018-14353)

This could result in authentication credentials being exposed     on an unencrypted connection, or to a machine-in-the-middle. (CVE-2020-28896)

  - 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. (CVE-2021-3181)

  - Buffer Overflow in uudecoder in Mutt affecting all versions starting from 0.94.13 before 2.2.3 allows read     past end of input line (CVE-2022-1328)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The version of mutt installed on the remote host is prior to 1.5.21-29. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2022-1892 advisory.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES11 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2020:14414-1 advisory.

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 allows an IMAP fcc/postpone man-in-the-middle attack via a PREAUTH response.
    (CVE-2020-14093)

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 proceeds with a connection even if, in response to a GnuTLS certificate prompt, the     user rejects an expired intermediate certificate. (CVE-2020-14154)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to the versions of the mutt package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 proceeds with a connection even if,     in response to a GnuTLS certificate prompt, the user     rejects an expired intermediate     certificate.(CVE-2020-14154)

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 allows an IMAP fcc/postpone     man-in-the-middle attack via a PREAUTH     response.(CVE-2020-14093)

  - Mutt before 1.14.4 and NeoMutt before 2020-06-19 have a     STARTTLS buffering issue that affects IMAP, SMTP, and     POP3. When a server sends a 'begin TLS' response, the     client reads additional data (e.g., from a     man-in-the-middle attacker) and evaluates it in a TLS     context, aka 'response injection.'(CVE-2020-14954)

  - Mutt before 2.0.2 and NeoMutt before 2020-11-20 did not     ensure that $ssl_force_tls was processed if an IMAP     server's initial server response was invalid. The     connection was not properly closed, and the code could     continue attempting to authenticate. This could result     in authentication credentials being exposed on an     unencrypted connection, or to a     machine-in-the-middle.(CVE-2020-28896)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

According to the versions of the mutt package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 allows an IMAP fcc/postpone     man-in-the-middle attack via a PREAUTH     response.(CVE-2020-14093)

  - Mutt before 1.14.4 and NeoMutt before 2020-06-19 have a     STARTTLS buffering issue that affects IMAP, SMTP, and     POP3. When a server sends a 'begin TLS' response, the     client reads additional data (e.g., from a     man-in-the-middle attacker) and evaluates it in a TLS     context, aka 'response injection.'(CVE-2020-14954)

  - Mutt before 1.14.3 proceeds with a connection even if,     in response to a GnuTLS certificate prompt, the user     rejects an expired intermediate     certificate.(CVE-2020-14154)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
