| CVE Name |CVE-2007-4521 |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Description | If Asterisk is configured to use IMAP as its backend |
| | storage for voicemail, then an e-mail sent to a user |
| | with an invalid/corrupted MIME body will cause Asterisk |
| | to crash when the user listens to their voicemail using |
| | the phone. |
| | |
| | This does not affect any other voicemail storage option, |
| | nor does it affect users who check their voicemail via |
| | e-mail when using IMAP storage. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Resolution | Since this is a minor issue, a new release is not |
| | immediately planned. However, the issue will be fixed in |
| | Asterisk Open Source version 1.4.12 when it is released. |
