CVE-2006-1173 Information

Description

Sendmail before 8.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via deeply nested malformed multipart MIME messages that exhaust the stack during the recursive mime8to7 function for performing 8-bit to 7-bit conversion which prevents Sendmail from delivering queued messages and might lead to disk consumption by core dump files.
