CVE-2019-10741 Information

Description

K-9 Mail v5.600 can include the original quoted HTML code of a specially crafted benign looking email within (digitally signed) reply messages. The quoted part can contain conditional statements that show completely different text if opened in a different email client. This can be abused by an attacker to obtain valid S/MIME or PGP signatures for arbitrary content to be displayed to a third party. NOTE: the vendor states \We don’t plan to take any action because of this.\
