CVE-2024-30203 [MEDIUM] CWE-349 emacs: Gnus treats inline MIME contents as trusted
emacs: Gnus treats inline MIME contents as trusted
In Emacs before 29.3, Gnus treats inline MIME contents as trusted.
A flaw was found in Emacs. When Emacs is used as an email client, inline MIME attachments are considered to be trusted by default, allowing a crafted LaTeX document to exhaust the disk space or the inodes allocated for the partition where the /tmp directory is located. This issue possibly results in a denial of service.
Statement: This issue is very similar to CVE-2024-30204. See https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-30204.
Mitigation: Do not open emails from untrusted sources.

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
