Last modified
CVE-2010-2494 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple buffer underflows in the base64 decoder in base64.c in (1) bogofilter and (2) bogolexer in bogofilter before 1.2.2 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption and application crash) via an e-mail message with invalid base64 data that begins with an = (equals) character.. EPSS estimates a 3.44% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
