NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream claws-mail package and not the claws-mail package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Claws Mail 3.14.1, an attacker in possession of S/MIME or PGP encrypted emails can wrap them as sub-parts within a crafted multipart email. The encrypted part(s) can further be hidden using HTML/CSS or ASCII newline characters. This modified multipart email can be re-sent by the attacker to the intended receiver. If the receiver replies to this (benign looking) email, they unknowingly leak the plaintext of the encrypted message part(s) back to the attacker.
