[Bug 354291] New: fetchmail Segmentation fault
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=354291
Summary: fetchmail Segmentation fault

Version: Final
Platform: x86-64
OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Other

fetchmail 6.3.8-57.2 x86_64
happened twice during the last 14 days:
fetchmail is used to retrieve emails from our ISP mail server.
a mail somehow mis-formed (a spam mail on the 1st occurance, a wanted newletter
mail on the 2nd occurance) is segment faulting and terminating fetchmail.
Therefore the defect mail is stuck on top of the waiting mail stack.
The cron job with fetchmail fails on ALL following tries until the defect mail
is cleared manually. Possible denial-of-service.
The 2nd mail file (newsletter) is saved and can be provided. As they contain
confident mail and server data it is available only on request.
And I just installed the latest fetchmail-6.3.8-86.x86_64.rpm 14-Jan-2008 16:25
from the opensuse 11.0alpha which still fails on the same mail.
Here are the last lines of the log file until the fetchmail dies:

I'm not sure how to safely get the mails from my ISP mailserver without downloading/deleting them and without getting them changed with new status information.
Probably the best way would be forwarding them directly (as attachments - to pass through our spam filters) over IMAP. Or download them over POP3 - be sure to check the state of "do not delete downloaded messages", "leave messages on server" or similar settings in your mail client).
I've just get the headers etc. via IMAP to Thunderbird 2. Attached is the msf file from thunderbird.
I'll try to get the headers out of it or make a similar up (in case it is some buffer overflow). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
