Kevin J. McCarthy reports :

Fixes a remote code injection vulnerability when 'subscribing' to an IMAP mailbox, either via $imap_check_subscribed, or via the <subscribe> function in the browser menu. Mutt was generating a 'mailboxes' command and sending that along to the muttrc parser.
However, it was not escaping '`', which executes code and inserts the result. This would allow a malicious IMAP server to execute arbitrary code (for $imap_check_subscribed).

Fixes POP body caching path traversal vulnerability.

Fixes IMAP header caching path traversal vulnerability.
