NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream otrs2 package and not the otrs2 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Open Ticket Request System (OTRS) before 2.3.6 does not properly handle e-mail messages in which the From line contains UTF-8 characters associated with diacritical marks and an invalid charset, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (duplicate tickets and duplicate auto-responses) by sending a crafted message to a POP3 mailbox.
