2 - Vulnerability

3 - POC/EXPLOIT

------------------------------------------------------

Description

Evolution is an email client that is built with ubuntu.

------------------------------------------------------

Vulnerability

The vulnerability works when mail is sent and specially armed with html code, this causes the client to break.

Analyzing with a debugger, you can see the failure with the following function.

0xb7a219d7 in html_engine_get_view_width () from /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-3.14.so.19

------------------------------------------------------

POC/EXPLOIT

The proof of concept can be done locally,

when you save the following code in a html file and then load it into an e-mail from the new option "insert" and "html file",

as that could verify the client is broken.

<IFRAME SRC="A"></IFRAME>

<FRAMESET><FRAME SRC="A"></FRAMESET>
